Sec. 60.102  Standard for particulate matter.

    Each owner or operator of any fluid catalytic cracking unit catalyst 
regenerator that is subject to the requirements of this subpart shall 
comply with the emission limitations set forth in this section on and 
after the date on which the initial performance test, required by Sec. 
60.8, is completed, but not later than 60 days after achieving the 
maximum production rate at which the fluid catalytic cracking unit 
catalyst regenerator will be operated, or 180 days after initial 
startup, whichever comes first.
    (a) No owner or operator subject to the provisions of this subpart 
shall discharge or cause the discharge into the atmosphere from any 
fluid catalytic cracking unit catalyst regenerator:
    (1) Particulate matter in excess of 1.0 kg/Mg (2.0 lb/ton) of coke 
burn-off in the catalyst regenerator.
    (2) Gases exhibiting greater than 30 percent opacity, except for one 
six-minute average opacity reading in any one hour period.
    (b) Where the gases discharged by the fluid catalytic cracking unit 
catalyst regenerator pass through an incinerator or waste heat boiler in 
which auxiliary or supplemental liquid or solid fossil fuel is burned, 
particulate matter in excess of that permitted by paragraph (a)(1) of 
this section may be emitted to the atmosphere, except that the 
incremental rate of particulate matter emissions shall not exceed 43 
grams per Gigajoule (g/GJ) (0.10 lb/million British thermal units (Btu)) 
of heat input attributable to such liquid or solid fossil fuel.
