removing several tolerances which have expired.
DATES: This regulation is effective June 11, 2010. Objections and
requests for hearings must be received on or before August 10, 2010,
and must be filed in accordance with the instructions provided in 40

Subject: AIR - ND. EPA. Amendments to the Protocol Gas Verification Program and Minimum Competency Requirements for Air Emission Testing
[Federal Register: June 11, 2010 (Volume 75, Number 112)]
[Proposed Rules]

RIN 2060-AQ06
Amendments to the Protocol Gas Verification Program and Minimum
Competency Requirements for Air Emission Testing
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Proposed Rule; Reconsideration.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Recent EPA gas audit results indicate that some gas cylinders
used to calibrate continuous emission monitoring systems on stationary
sources do not meet EPA's performance specification. Reviews of stack
test reports in recent years indicate that some stack testers do not
properly follow EPA test methods or do not correctly calculate test
method results. Therefore, EPA is proposing to amend its Protocol Gas
Verification Program (PGVP) and the minimum competency requirements for
air emission testing (formerly air emission testing body requirements)
to improve the accuracy of emissions data. EPA is also proposing to
amend other sections of the Acid Rain Program continuous emission
monitoring system regulations by adding and clarifying certain
recordkeeping and reporting requirements, removing the provisions
pertaining to mercury monitoring and reporting, removing certain
requirements associated with a class-approved alternative monitoring
system, disallowing the use of a particular quality assurance option in
EPA Reference Method 7E, adding an incorporation by reference that was
inadvertently left out of the January 24, 2008 final rule, and
clarifying the language and applicability of certain provisions.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before July 12, 2010. Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act, comments on the information collection
provisions are best assured of having full effect if the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) receives a copy of your comments on or
before July 12, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-
OAR-2009-0837 (which includes Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2005-0132, and
Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2008-0800), by one of the following methods:
