1. Pursuant to Rule 74.27.B.1, no person shall conduct or allow the degassing of any storage tank subject to Rule 74.27, unless the emissions are controlled by one of the following options:
-
a. Liquid displacement into
a vapor recovery system, flare, or fuel gas system (Rule 74.27.B.1.a).
Liquid displacement is defined as the removal of ROC vapors from within
a storage tank drained of liquid product by introducing into the tank
a liquid having an ROC modified Reid vapor pressure (mRVP) of less
than 0.5 psi absolute until at least 90 percent of the tank's vapor
volume has been displaced, with the mRVP determined using ASTM Method
D 323-82 conducted at 68 degrees Fahrenheit (Rule 74.27.F.8); or
-
b. An air pollution control
device that has a vapor destruction and removal efficiency of at least
95 percent until the vapor concentration in the tank is less than
10,000 ppmv, measured as methane (Rule 74.27.B.1.b).
-
Fugitive emissions that do
not qualify as a leak shall be allowed around tank openings such as
a manhole during a tank degassing operation performed in compliance
with Rule 74.27.
-
Pursuant to Rule 74.27.E.3,
compliance with the above limits shall require that the tank vapor
concentration remain at or below 10,000 ppmv for at least one hour
as demonstrated by measuring the vapor concentration at least four
times at 15-minute intervals. The monitoring instrument used to measure
the vapor concentration shall meet the specifications of EPA Method
21.
