Cal e-GGRT Help

Q93. What should facilities do if the calibration error for fuel flow meters that exceeds the 5.0% performance specification?

Note: The Cal e-GGRT help system includes general instruction on using the California GHG reporting tool. However, the help system may not explain differences between California and U.S. EPA reporting requirements. Please refer to the ARB reporting website for California-specific reporting requirements and additional help.

For a fuel flow meter that either has not met, or may not be able to meet the 5.0% calibration error specification, the “best available monitoring method” (BAMM) may be used until April 1, 2010. You may request to use the BAMM through the remainder of 2010, as described in §98.3(d). However, for a fuel flow meter that cannot meet the calibration specification, the meter must either be replaced or modified to meet the specification by the time that the allowable use of the BAMM has expired.
