a Monitor may be installed in the firebox or in the ductwork immediately downstream of the firebox before any substantial heat exchange is encountered.
b “Continuous recorder” is defined in § 63.111 of this subpart.
c As an alternative to conducting this monitoring, an owner or operator may replace the carbon in the carbon adsorption system with fresh carbon at a regular predetermined time interval that is less than the carbon replacement interval that is determined by the maximum design flow rate and organic concentration in the gas stream vented to the carbon adsorption system. For each source as defined in § 63.101, on and after July 15, 2027, this footnote no longer applies.
d A continuous organic monitoring device may be used in lieu of the requirements outlined for thermal incinerators, catalytic incinerators, boilers, process heaters, condensers, and carbon adsorbers.
