l i n g poin ts and entrainment p o t e n t i a l between t h e vent s t a c k and a t tached r a i n d e f l e c t o r were checked. The absence of cyc lonic flow was determined by t h e procedures described i n EPA Method 1,

2.4. P o t e n t i a l entrainment flows i n t h e r a i n d e f l e c t o r t h a t could cause i r r e g u l a r flows over t h e sampling plane were determined by hot v i r e anemometry.

To insu re process and s t a t i s t i c a l r ep resen ta t iveness , sampling was

performed on t h r e e sepa ra t e days ( i . e . , t h r e e 8 .33 hour t e s t s were conducted) during per iods of maximum production. The co l l ec t ed samples of each t e s t were ind iv idua l ly d iges ted i n an ac id solu-

Emission tests were conducted at t h e a b o v e referenced facility.

J o h n Vereb and F r a n k P a p p reviewed t h e final t e s t report. Their review indicates that the beryllium emissions from t h e source were within the standards stated o n Permit No. P - 7 6 6 9 3 a n d Neshaps Subpart C . Although the source w a s w i t h i n the allowable s t a n d a r d s , they w e r e only operating a n average of 6 s o u r c e s out of 1 2 d u r i n g t h e t e s t i n g period. Since the emission emitted from the s o u r c e w e r e roughly one-half of t h e allowable permit s t a n d a r d s , it may be possible that the emissions may reach t h e permit a l l o w a b l e . Based o n this f a c t , the permit should be amended t o r e f l e c t a maximum n u m b e r o f sources t o be operated at any o n e time.

On the dates of March 2 9 , April 20, and April 2 1 , stack tests for Beryllium Oxide were conducted on the ventilation/emission control system of Accuratus Inc., Washington. N.J., by Accredited Laboratories Inc. of Carteret, N.J. The results reported are as follows:

Technical Services calculations using the raw data supplied produced substantially the same results as reported by Accredited Laboratories Inc..

Allowable emissions of Beryllium Oxide under National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants is 10 grams of Beryllium for a 24 hour period. Allowabl emissions of Beryllium Oxide under NJDEP -8 Permit 076693 is 2.3 x10 lbs per hour. Emissions for Beryllium Oxide were in compliance with NJDEP Permit No. 076693 and NESHAPS Subpart C during all three test runs.

A representative sample was required to obtain adequate results, therefore eight hour tests were run. Tests were run during the primary cycle of the production process due to the higher emission rates occurring then. According to David Kmetz of the Northern Regional field office, and average of 5.6 machines were being used at one time which is below the twelve machine specification on the permit, this was due to the nature of the production.
