Compliance Steps Required of All Dry Cleaners Reporting Each facility must submit an initial report and compliance reports. Initial reports must include the following: 1. The name and address of the owner or operator; 2. The address (physical location) of the dry cleaning facility; 3. A brief description of the type of each dry clea.ning facility; 4. Documentation or an estimate of how much perc was used in the previous year to estimate how the regulation applies. 5. A description of the type of pollution control device(s) that will be used and whether the control device(s) is currently in use or will be purchased. 6. Documentation to show that each room enclosure, used where required, is within the specifications of this standard. Compliance reports must include statements certifying the following: 1. The yearly perc consumption limit based upon the yearly perc consumption calculation. 2. Whether or not the facility is meting each applicable requirement. 3. That all information contained in the statement is accurate and true. Required monitoring must begin immediately for new installations and was required to begin November 23, 1996 for existing facilities 1. RC: Measure the temperature at the end concentration needs to be less than or equal to of the cycle on the outlet side of the RC on the 100 ppm. dry to dry machine, dryer, or reclaimer. It must be less than or equal to 7.20C (450F). Monitoring Measure the inlet and outlet temperature difference of the RC on a washer. It must be greater than 11.1 oC (200F). Each temperature sensor must be designed to measure at least a temperature range ofOoC (320F) to 48.90C (1200F) to an accuracy of + or - 1.lOC (20F). 2. CA: Follow the manufacturer's directions. If you use a CA on a dry-to-dry machine or a transfer machine to meet the required control, or you use a supplemental CA on a dry-to -dry machine and the exhaust passes through the CA immediately upon door opening, use a colorimetric detector tube that measures a concentration of 100 ppm by volume of perc in air to an accuracy of + or - 25 ppm by volume. Measure the perc concentration in the exhaust of the CA with a colorimetric detector tube while the dry cleaning machine is venting to that CA at the end of the last dry cleaning cycle prior to desorption. The perc Doc. # 5.03, Page 3 of 4 A sampling port for monitoring within the exhaust outlet of the CA must be provided in a place that is easily accessible; located at least eight times the diameter ofthe stack Of duct downstream from any flow disturbance (bend, expansion, contraction, or outlet); not downstream from any other inlet; and two times the diameters of the stack or duct upstream from any flow disturbance. If you are a new, major source and you use a supplemental CA on a dry-to-dry machine and the exhaust passes through the CA before the machine door is opened, use a colorimetric detector tube that measures a concentration of 300 ppm by volume ofperc in air to an accuracy of + or - 75 ppm by volume. Do this after the last dry cleaning cycle. Place the tube into the open space at the rear end ofthe drum immediately after door opening. The ( perc concentration needs to be less than or equal to 300 ppm.
