To measure the following pollutants Use the following methods in appendix A of this part to determine the sampling location Use the methods in appendix A of this part to measure pollutant concentration Also note the following additional information 1. Organics: Dioxins/Furans Method 1 Method 23a The minimum sampling time must be 4 hours per test run while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load. 2. Metals: Cadmium Method 1 Method 29a Compliance testing must be performed while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load. Lead Method 1 Method 29a Compliance testing must be performed while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load. Mercury Method 1 Method 29a Compliance testing must be performed while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load. Opacity Method 9 Method 9 Use Method 9 to determine compliance with opacity limit. 3-hour observation period (thirty 6-minute averages). Particulate Matter Method 1 Method 5a The minimum sample Matter volume must be 1.0 cubic meters. The probe and filter holder heating systems in the sample train must be set to provide a gas temperature no greater than 160 ±14 °C. The minimum sampling time is 1 hour. 3. Acid Gases:b Hydrogen Chloride Method 1 Method 26 or 26Aa Test runs must be at least 1 hour long while the municipal waste combustion unit is operating at full load. 4.
