Open Table
| Option . . . | For this work practice standard . . . | You have demonstrated initial compliance if . . . |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Each new or existing bypass line associated with a catalytic cracking unit, catalytic reforming unit, or sulfur recovery unit | a. Option 1: Install and operate a device (including a flow indicator, level recorder, or electronic valve position monitor) to demonstrate, either continuously or at least every hour, whether flow is present in bypass line. Install the device at or as near as practical to the entrance to any bypass line that could divert the vent stream away from the control device to the atmosphere | The installed equipment operates properly during each run of the performance test and no flow is present in the line during the test. |
| b. Option 2: Install a car-seal or lock-and-key device placed on the mechanism by which the bypass device flow position is controlled (e.g., valve handle, damper level) when the bypass device is in the closed position such that the bypass line valve cannot be opened without breaking the seal or removing the device | As part of the notification of compliance status, you certify that you installed the equipment, the equipment was operational by your compliance date, and you identify what equipment was installed. | |
| c. Option 3: Seal the bypass line by installing a solid blind between piping flanges | See item 1.b of this table. | |
| d. Option 4: Vent the bypass line to a control device that meets the appropriate requirements in this subpart | See item 1.b of this table. |
