(A) General provisions (1) This rule shall apply to any in cinerator used to dispose of refuse or other wastes by burning and to the processing of salvageable material by burning. (2) For the purposes of this rule, the total of the capacities of all incinerators which are united either physically or operationally shall be considered as the in cineration capacity. (B) Emission limitation. No person shall cause, suffer, or allow to be emitted into the ambient air from any incinerator or incinerators, particulate
emissions in the exhaust gases in excess of: 0.10 pound per one hundred pounds of liquid, semi-solid or solid refuse charged, for incinerators having incineration capa cities equal to or greater than one hundred pounds per hour; or 0.20 pound per one hundred pounds of liquid, semi-solid or solid refuse charged for incinerators hav ing incineration capacities less than one hundred pounds per hour.

(A) This rule applies to installations in which fuel, including any product or by product of a manufacturing process, is burned for the primary purpose of produc ing heat or power by indirect heat transfer.
(B) For purposes of this rule the actual heat input shall be the aggregate heat con tent of all fuels whose products of combus tion emanate from a single fuel burning unit. The maximum capacity shall be the equipment manufacturer's or designer's guaranteed maximum heat input, whichever is greater. Unless otherwise specified in paragraphs (B)(1) to (B)(4) of this rule, the total heat input of all luel burn ing units on a plant or premises which are united cither physically or operationally
shall be the total of the maximum capacities for all such units. The total heal input shall be used for determining the maximum allowable amount of particulate emissions per million Btu of actual heat in put from any single fuel burning unit
(1) Any new or existing fuel burning equipment which is fired only with gaseous fuels and/or number two fuel oil and which is physically or operationally united wuh
other fuel burning equipment on a plant or premises shall not be included by the direc tor for purposes of determining the total
heat input and maximum allowable par ticulate emissions per million Btu of actual heat input for such other fuel burning equip ment. The maximum allowable amount of particulate emissions for any new or ex isting fuel burning equipment which is fired only with gaseous fuels and/or number two fuel oil shall be .020 pound per million Btu of actual heat input.
(2) Stand-by fuel burning equipment which is physically or operationally united with other fuel burning equipment on a plant or premises shall be exempted by the director for purposes of determining total heat input and maximum allowable pani culate emissions per million Btu of actual heat input for such other fuel burning equipment Except as provided in para graph (B)(1) of this rule, the total heat input for such other fuel burning equip ment shall be used for determining the maximum allowable amount of particulate emissions per million Btu of actual heat input for any stand-by fuel burning equipment.
(3) Derating of fuel burning equipment.
(a) For purposes of this paragraph, fuel burning equipment shall include, where appropriate, all equipment on a plant or premises which are united either physical ly or operationally
(b) Upon request, the director may specify the total heat input for fuel burn ing equipment at a derated value which is less than the total maximum capacity of such equipment if, in the director's judg ment, the equipment will not be operated so that the actual heat input exceeds the derated value. Any owner or operator re questing derating of fuel burning equip ment shall demonstrate to the director, with such steam charts, records of fuel
consumption and luel quality, und other data us ure necessars. that the uctuu! heut input from the equipmem will not exceed [he derated total heal input xulue
(c) The terms and conditions of any per mit, xariance, or order for equipment which hus been granted a derated total heat input xalue shall prohibit the opera tion of such equipment at a level in excess of the derated total heat input \alue The director may include in anx such permit, variance, or order requirements lor the monitoring and reporting of the actual heat input of the equipment.
(4) Fuel burning equipment which con stitutes a new source and is physically or operationally united with existing fuel burn ing equipment on a plant or premises shall not be included by the director for purposes of determining total heat input and maximum allowable particulate
emissions per million Btu of actual heat in put for such existing fuel burning equip ment. Except as may be provided in paragraphs (BMl) and/or (B)(2) of this rule, the total heat input for the new and existing fuel burning equipment shall be used for determining the maximum allowable amount of particulate emissions per million Btu of actual heat input for the new fuel burning equipment.
(C) Emission limitations, (1) Except as provided in paragraph (B)( I) of this rule (as it pertains to gaseous fuels and number two fuel oil) and paragraphs (C)(3) to (C)(7) of this rule, any owner or operator of a source of par ticulate emissions which is located within the following counties shall operate said source so that the particulate emissions do not exceed the allowable emission rate specified by "Curve P-l" of "Figure I"; Adams.
