§ 63.7791 How do I comply with the requirements for the control of mercury?

(a) Compliance deadlines. (1) If you have an existing affected source or a new or reconstructed affected source for which construction or reconstruction commenced on or before August 16, 2019, each BOPF Group at your facility must be in compliance with the applicable mercury emission limit in Table 1 of this subpart through performance testing under §§ 63.7825 and 63.7833, or through procurement of steel scrap pursuant to the compliance options in § 63.7791(c), (d), or (e) beginning July 13, 2021.

(2) If you have a new or reconstructed affected source for which construction or reconstruction commenced after August 16, 2019, each BOPF Group at that source must be in compliance with the applicable mercury emission limit in Table 1 of this subpart beginning July 13, 2020 or upon initial startup of your affected source, whichever is later.

(b) Alternative compliance demonstration. (1) As an alternative to demonstrating compliance with the emission limits in Table 1 by conducting performance tests pursuant to §§ 63.7825 and 63.7833(h), you may demonstrate compliance with the emission limits in Table 1 by procuring scrap pursuant to the requirements in paragraph (c), (d), or (e) of this section for each scrap provider, contract, or shipment. It is not necessary to use the same BOPF scrap compliance provision for all scrap providers, contracts, or shipments. You may procure some scrap through providers, contracts, or shipments pursuant to one BOPF scrap compliance provision and other scrap through providers, contracts, or shipments pursuant to other BOPF scrap compliance provisions.
