# §63.9914. What test methods and other procedures must I use to demonstrate initial compliance with chlorine and hydrochloric acid emission limits?

- (a) You must conduct each performance test that applies to your affected source according to the requirements in [§ 63.7(e)(1)](/cfr/40/63.7.md?p=e-1).
- (b) To determine compliance with the applicable emission limits for chlorine and hydrochloric acid in Table 1 to this subpart, you must follow the test methods and procedures specified in paragraphs [(b)(1)](#b-1) and [(2)](#b-2) of this section.
  - (1) Determine the concentration of chlorine and hydrochloric acid according to the following test methods in appendix A to [40 CFR part 60](/cfr/40/part60.md):
    - (i) **Method 1 to select sampling port locations and the number of traverse points.** Sampling ports must be located at the outlet of the control device and prior to any releases to the atmosphere.
    - (ii) **Method 2, 2F, or 2G to determine the volumetric flow of the stack gas.**
    - (iii) **Method 3, 3A, or 3B to determine the dry molecular weight of the stack gas.**
    - (iv) **Method 4 to determine the moisture content of the stack gas.**
    - (v) **Method 26 or 26A, as applicable, to determine the concentration of hydrochloric acid and chlorine.**
  - (2) **Collect a minimum sample of 60 dscf during each test run for chlorine and hydrochloric acid.** Three valid test runs are needed to comprise a performance test.
- (c) **Compute the mass emissions rate (lbs/hr) for each test run using Equation 1 of this section—**
