1 Environmental Protection Agency test methods or other test
2 methods specified by department rule.
3 1. Tests for particulate matter of 10 microns or less
4 may be conducted using United States Environmental Protection
5 Agency Method 5, provided that all measured particulate matter
6 is assumed to be particulate matter of 10 microns or less.
7 Tests for compliance with the particulate matter emission
8 limit of subparagraph (2)(e)2. for the pellet cooler or
9 cooling reel are waived as long as the facility complies with
10 the visible emissions limitation of subparagraph (2)(g)2. If
11 any visible emissions test for the pellet cooler or cooling
12 reel does not demonstrate compliance with the visible
13 emissions limitation of subparagraph (2)(g)2., the emissions
14 unit shall be tested for compliance with the particulate
15 matter emission limit of subparagraph (2)(e)2. within 30 days
16 after the visible emissions test.

Amendment No. (for drafter's use only)
1 methods suitable for determining sulfur content. Sulfur
2 dioxide emissions shall be determined by material balance
3 using the sulfur content and amount of the fuel or fuels fired
4 in each emission source, assuming that for each pound of
5 sulfur in the fuel fired, two pounds of sulfur dioxide are
6 emitted.
7 (k) A situation arising from sudden and unforeseeable
8 events beyond the control of the source which causes a
9 technology-based emissions limitation to be exceeded because
10 of unavoidable increases in emissions attributable to the
11 situation and which requires immediate corrective action to
12 restore normal operation shall be an affirmative defense to an
13 enforcement action in accordance with the provisions and
14 requirements of 40 CFR 70.6(g)(2) and (3), hereby adopted and
15 incorporated by reference as the law of this state. It shall
16 not be a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that
17 maintaining compliance with any permit condition would
18 necessitate halting of or reduction of the source activity.
19 (4) EMISSIONS TRADING.--If the facility is limited by
20 the emission limit listed in paragraph (2)(c) for any such
21 limit which the facility exceeded during the calendar year,
22 the facility must obtain, no later than March 1 of the
23 reporting year, sufficient allowances, generated in the same
24 calendar year in which the limit was exceeded, to meet all
25 limits exceeded. Any facility which fails to meet the limit
26 and fails to secure sufficient allowances that equal or exceed
27 the emissions resulting from such failure to meet the limit
28 shall be subject to enforcement in the same manner and to the
29 same extent as if the facility had violated a permit
30 condition. For purposes of this section, an "allowance" means
31 a credit equal to emissions of 1 ton per year of a pollutant

1 listed in paragraph (2)(c), subject to the particular
2 limitations of paragraphs (a) and (b).
3 (a) Emissions allowances may be obtained from any
4 other facility authorized to operate under this section,
5 provided such allowances are real, excess, and are not
6 resulting from the shutdown of an emissions unit. Emissions
7 allowances must be obtained for each pollutant the emissions
8 limit of which was exceeded in the calendar year. Allowances
9 can be applied on a pollutant-specific basis only. No
10 cross-pollutant trading shall be allowed.
11 1. Real allowances are those created by the difference
12 between the emissions limit imposed by this section and the
13 lower emissions actually measured during the calendar year.
14 Measurement of emissions for allowance purposes shall be
15 determined in the manner described in this subparagraph. For
16 purposes of measuring whether an allowance was created, a
17 single stack test or use of emissions estimates cannot be
18 used. Measurement of recovery of oil from citrus fruits
19 processed shall be by material balance using the measured oil
20 in the incoming fruit, divided into the sum of the oil
21 remaining in juice, the cold press oil recovered, d-limonene
22 recovered, and oil remaining in the dried pellets, expressed
23 as a percentage. Alternatively, the material balance may use
24 the measured oil in the incoming fruit divided into the oil
25 measured remaining in the pressed peel prior to introduction
26 into the feed mill dryers, in which case the decimal result
27 shall be subtracted from the numeral one, and added to the
28 decimal result of the measured oil in the incoming fruit
29 divided into the oil measured remaining in the dried pellets,
30 with the resulting sum expressed as a percentage. Measurement
31 of recovery of oil shall be made each operational day and

1 averaged over the days of facility operation during each
2 calendar year. Facilities may accept wet peel from offsite
3 sources for drying, provided that the facility receives
4 sufficient recorded information from the offsite source to
5 measure available oil and oil recovery at the offsite source,
6 and accounts for those values in determining compliance with
7 the limitation of paragraph (2)(c) and the number of
8 allowances that are required to be obtained, if any. Wet peel
9 not processed through the peel dryer shall be excluded from
10 the oil recovery calculations. Methodologies for determining
11 oil contents shall be developed by the Institute of Food and
12 Agricultural Sciences and approved by rule of the department.
13 Other methods of measuring oil recovery or determining oil
14 content may be approved by rule of the department, for trading
15 purposes, provided the methods yield results equivalent to the
16 approved methodologies.
17 2. Excess allowances are those not used for any other
18 regulatory purpose.
19 (b) No facility located in an area designated
20 nonattainment for ozone shall be allowed to acquire allowances
21 of volatile organic compounds. Nothing shall preclude such a
22 facility from trading volatile organic compounds allowances
23 that it might generate to facilities not located in a
24 nonattainment area for ozone.
25 (5) EMISSIONS FEES.--All facilities authorized to
26 operate under this section shall pay annual emissions fees in
27 the same amount to which the facility would be subject under
28 the department's Title V program. For purposes of determining
29 fees until October 31, 2002, emission fees shall be based on
30 the requirements of s. 403.0872. Commencing July 1, 2002, the
31 allowable annual emissions for fee purposes shall be computed

1 as the emissions limits established by this section multiplied
2 by the actual operation rates, heat input, and hours of
3 operation of each new and existing source for the previous
4 calendar year. Actual operation rates, heat input, and hours
5 of operation of each new and existing source shall be
6 documented by making and maintaining records of operation of
7 each source. Fees shall not be based on stack test results. In
8 the event that adequate records of actual operation rates and
9 heat input are not maintained, actual operation shall be
10 assumed to occur at the source's maximum capacity during hours
11 of actual operation, if adequately documented. In the event
12 that adequate records of hours of operation are not
13 maintained, the source shall be assumed to have operated from
14 January 1 through May 31 and October 1 through December 31 of
15 the previous calendar year. All such annual emissions fees
16 shall be due and payable April 1 for the preceding calendar
17 year. Failure to pay fees shall result in penalties and
18 interest in the same manner and to the same extent as failure
19 to pay fees under the department's Title V program. For
20 purposes of determining actual emissions for fee purposes, any
21 allowances traded away shall be deducted and any allowances
22 acquired shall be included. All fees shall be deposited into
23 the Air Pollution Control Trust Fund.
24 (6) MODIFICATIONS AND NEW CONSTRUCTION.--Any facility
25 authorized to operate under this section that makes any
26 physical change or any change to the method of operation of
27 the facility shall comply with the requirements of this
28 section at all times, except that any facility located in an
29 area designated as a nonattainment area for any pollutant
30 shall also comply with limits established by department rules
31 for all changes which increase emissions of such pollutant,
