SHUTDOWN - to perform boiler tube water wash. Boiler emissions were above the limit for only 1-hour during the 4-hour compliance block. This is an excused excess emission event since the actual event was 3-hours or less in duration. |
Used gas during shutdown to minimize emissions. |

STARTUP - following water wash. Abnormally high SO2 inlet concentration during beginning of combustion process on MSW. Boiler was operating and emissions were above the limit for only 1-hour during the 24-hour compliance block. This is an excused excess emission event since the actual event was 3-hours or less in duration. |
Ramp up SDA to full operation - monitor boiler exit/SDA hopper temperatures and adjust lime slurry feed rate accordingly. |
