5. The temperature of the chilled air blanket created by the refrigerated freeboard chiller, as measured at the coldest point on a vertical axis through the center of the degreaser, shall not exceed 57°F at any time the sump heater is on, except during the chiller defrost cycle.
6. The degreaser cover shall be maintained in its closed position during the idling mode and during the downtime mode unless either the solvent has been removed or maintenance or monitoring is being performed that requires that the cover not be in place.
7. The degreaser shall be equipped with interlocks designed to stop heat to the degreaser if the vapor level raises above the height of the primary condenser, if the solvent level lowers to the sump heater coils, if a low flow condition exists in the cooling water supply, or if a high temperature condition exists in the cooling water supply.
8. Total facility-wide hazardous air pollutant emissions, including those from the degreaser approved herein, shall be less than 10 tons per 12 consecutive month period for any single hazardous air pollutant and 25 tons per 12 consecutive month period for all hazardous air pollutants combined.
