GP043AS-023437-PP-772 Page 11 of 43 PacifiCorp 2024 Compliance Source Test Plan 3.0 Sampling and Analytical Procedures 3.1 Test Methods The test methods for this test program have been presented in Table 1-1. Additional information regarding specific applications or modifications to standard procedures is presented below. 3.1.1 EPA Methods 5 and 202 Determination of Particulate Matter from Stationary Sources and Dry Impinger Method for Determining Condensable Particulate Emissions from Stationary Sources EPA Methods 5 and 202 are manual, isokinetic methods used to measure FPM and CPM emissions. The methods are performed in conjunction with EPA Methods 1 through 4. The stack gas is sampled through a nozzle, probe, heated filter, unheated CPM filter, condenser, and impinger train. FPM is collected from the probe and heater filter. CPM is collected from the unheated CPM filter and the impinger train. The samples are analyzed gravimetrically. The sum of FPM and CPM represents TPM. The FPM, CPM, and TPM results are reported in emission concentration and emission rate units. Pertinent information regarding the performance of the method is presented below: o Condensed water is measured gravimetrically o The post-test nitrogen purge is performed by passing nitrogen through the train under pressure o To simplify shipping arrangements to remote locations, stainless steel probe liners and nozzles are used. After each run, the nozzle and probe liner are brushed and washed a total of six times with reagent-grade acetone to assure complete recovery of all particulate matter. The brush is given a final rinse with acetone and the nozzle and probe liner are given a final rinse with acetone and all rinsate is collected into the appropriate sample container The typical sampling system is detailed in Figure 3-1. GP043AS-023437-PP-772 Page 12 of 43 PacifiCorp 2024 Compliance Source Test Plan Figure 3-1 EPA Methods 5 and 202 Sampling Train 3.2 Process Test Methods The applicable regulations do not require process samples to be collected during this test program. GP043AS-023437-PP-772 Page 13 of 43 PacifiCorp 2024 Compliance Source Test Plan 4.0 Quality Assurance and Reporting 4.1 QA Audits Montrose has instituted a rigorous QA/QC program for its air quality testing. Quality assurance audits are performed as part of the test program to ensure that the results are calculated using the highest quality data available. This program ensures that the emissions data we report are as accurate as possible. The procedures included in the cited reference methods are followed during preparation, sampling, calibration, and analysis. Montrose is responsible for preparation, calibration, and cleaning of the sampling apparatus. Montrose will also perform the sampling, sample recovery, storage, and shipping. Approved contract laboratories may perform some of the preparation and sample analyses, as needed. 4.2 Quality Control Procedures Montrose calibrates and maintains equipment as required by the methods performed and applicable regulatory guidance. Montrose follows internal procedures to prevent the use of malfunctioning or inoperable equipment in test programs. All equipment is operated by trained personnel. Any incidence of nonconforming work encountered during testing is reported and addressed through the corrective action system. 4.2.1 Equipment Inspection and Maintenance Each piece of field equipment that requires calibration is assigned a unique identification number to allow tracking of its calibration history. All field equipment is visually inspected prior to testing and includes pre-test calibration checks as required by the test method or regulatory agency. 4.2.2 Audit Samples When required by the test method and available, Montrose obtains EPA TNI SSAS audit samples from an accredited provider for analysis along with the samples. Currently, the SSAS program has been suspended pending the availability of a second accredited audit sample provider. If the program is reinstated, the audit samples will be ordered. If required as part of the test program, the audit samples are stored, shipped, and analyzed along with the emissions samples collected during the test program. The audit sample results are reported along with the emissions sample results. 4.3 Data Analysis and Validation Montrose converts the raw field, laboratory, and process data to reporting units consistent with the permit or subpart. Calculations are made using proprietary computer spreadsheets or data acquisition systems. One run of each test method is also verified using a separate example calculation. The example calculations are checked against the spreadsheet results and are included in the final report. The “Standard Conditions” for this project are 29.92 inches of mercury and 68 °F. GP043AS-023437-PP-772 Page 14 of 43 PacifiCorp 2024 Compliance Source Test Plan 4.4 Sample Identification and Custody The on-site Field Project Manager will assume or assign the role of sample and data custodian until relinquishing custody. The sample custodian will follow proper custody procedures before departing from the test site including: x Assign the unique sample identification number to each sample x Attach sample labels and integrity seals to all samples x Complete COC form(s), ensuring that the sample identification numbers on the samples match the sample identification numbers on the COC x Pack and store samples in accordance with the test method requirements in appropriate transport containers for protection from breakage, contamination, or loss x Keep samples in a secure locked area if not in the direct presence of Montrose staff The sample custodian will follow proper custody procedures upon arriving at the Montrose office including: x Remove samples and COC documents from vehicles and check into designated secure sample holding areas x Store samples requiring additional measures such as refrigeration or dry ice appropriately 4.5 Quality Statement Montrose is qualified to conduct this test program and has established a quality management system that led to accreditation with ASTM Standard D7036-04 (Standard Practice for Competence of Air Emission Testing Bodies). Montrose participates in annual functional assessments for conformance with D7036-04 which are conducted by the American Association for Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA). All testing performed by Montrose is supervised on site by at least one Qualified Individual (QI) as defined in D7036-04 Section 8.3.2. Data quality objectives for estimating measurement uncertainty within the documented limits in the test methods are met by using approved test protocols for each project as defined in D7036-04 Sections 7.2.1 and 12.10. Additional quality assurance information is included in the appendices. The content of this test plan is modeled after the EPA Emission Measurement Center Guideline Document (GD-042). 4.6 Reporting Montrose will prepare a final report to present the test data, calculations/equations, descriptions, and results. Prior to release by Montrose, each report is reviewed and certified by the project manager and their supervisor, or a peer. Source test reports will be submitted to the facility or appropriate regulatory agency (upon customer approval) within GP043AS-023437-PP-772 Page 15 of 43 PacifiCorp 2024 Compliance Source Test Plan 25 days of the completion of the field work.

All employees must be trained to assess and mitigate hazards. The District Manager and Project Manager are responsible to ensure all hazards have been properly identified and managed. All employees have Stop Work Authority in all situations where an employee feels they or their co-worker cannot perform a job safely or if there is a task for which they have not been adequately trained. The Site Safety Plan (SSP) has been developed to help assist Montrose test crews with identifying physical and health hazards and determining how the hazards will be managed. Additionally, the SSP will help each crew manage the safety of the employees by providing emergency procedures and information. The booklet contains a several safety forms that may be required in the field. Instructions The SSP consists of the following: communicated to all employees, signed, and posted. Supervisor/ CPM will ensure that this Emergency Action Plan Form is completed, CPM will maintain a roster and be responsible for accounting for all employees. The Job to work commencing.
