116.84 MONITORS REQUIRED FOR PCB INCINERATORS.
Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, an incinerator permit issued to a facility
that allows burning of PCB's must, as a condition of the permit, require the installation of a
continuous emission monitoring system approved by the commissioner. The monitoring system
must provide continuous emission measurements to ensure optimum combustion efficiency
of dioxin precursors. The system must also be capable of providing a permanent record of
monitored emissions that will be available upon request to the commissioner and the general
public. The commissioner shall provide periodic inspection of the monitoring system to determine
its continued accuracy. Should, at any time, the permitted facility's emissions exceed permit
requirements based on accurate and valid emissions data, the facility shall immediately commence
shutdown of the incinerator until the appropriate modifications to the facility have been made to
ensure its ability to meet permitted requirements.
