aClass II units mean all small municipal combustion units subject to this division that are located at municipal waste combustion plants with aggregate plant combustion capacity less than or equal to 250 tons per day of municipal solid waste. See §113.2100 of this title for definitions.
bAll emission limits (except for opacity) are measured at 7 percent oxygen.
cNo monitoring, testing, recordkeeping or reporting is required to demonstrate compliance with the nitrogen oxides limit for Class II units.
