Indiana Department of Environmental Management Office of Air Quality Air Permit Application Page 1 of 3 PI-06 Instructions 5/2006 PROCESS INFORMATION: Electroplating – INSTRUCTIONS Microsoft Word version of PI-06 Adobe PDF version of PI-06 The purpose of PI-06 (state form 52546) is to obtain detailed information about the electroplating process. Complete one form for each process unit (or group of identical process units). PI-06 is a required form for all air permit applications submitted to IDEM, OAQ. For the purposes of this form, the term “source” refers to the plant as a whole and NOT to the individual emissions units. If you do not provide the enough information to adequately describe the process, the application process may be stopped. If you have any questions, contact the Air Permit Reviewer of the Day (PROD) at (317) 233-0178 or 1-800-451-6027 extension 3-0178 (toll free call within Indiana). Part A: Process Information Part A identifies the electroplating process. If there are multiple process units that are identical in nature, capacity, and use, you may use one form to summarize the data for the identical process units. 1. Unit ID: Provide the identification number for the unit. The identification numbers listed on this form should correspond to the emissions unit identified on the Plant Layout and Process Flow diagrams. 2. Installation Date: Provide the date on which the process unit was installed. If the exact date is not known, provide the month and year of the installation. If the unit has not yet been installed, provide the anticipated installation date. If the unit has been modified since the original installation, include the most recent modification date. 3. How many (identical) units are identified in this form? Indicate whether this form identifies one process unit, or a number of identical process units. Identical units must be of the same blasting type, process capacity, and installation date. If more than one identical unit, specify the number of units in the space provided. 4. Type of Plating Process: Identify the type of electroplating process. 5. Maximum Production Rate: If applicable, provide the maximum production or operating rate for the unit including appropriate units (e.g., units/hr, ton/hr, gal/hr, cf/hr, etc.). 6. Add-On Control Technology: Identify all control technologies used for this process, if applicable. A Control Equipment (CE) application form will need to be completed for each control device used, and a summary of control equipment should be submitted using form CE-01. 7. Control Techniques: Identify all control techniques used for this process. 8. Process Limitations / Additional Information: Use the space provided to identify any acceptable process limitations or to provide additional information. An example of an acceptable process limitation would be taking a limit on raw material usage. Such a limit would require an additional record keeping and reporting requirements to be enforceable. For some limitations, performance testing may also be required. Any future change to the established limit will require a permit modification. Part B: Emission Factors Part B identifies the emission factors used to calculate air emissions from this process.

Process Unit: Identify the process and include the identification number for the unit, if applicable. 10. Air Pollutant: For each process identified, list each air pollutant emitted to the atmosphere during normal operation. If there are multiple pollutants for an process, use a new row for each pollutant. 11. Emission Factor: Provide the relevant emission factor including the appropriate units (e.g., lb/units, lbs/ton, lbs/gal, lbs/cf, etc.). 12. Source of Emission Factor: Provide the source of the emission factors. Common sources include AP-42, stack test data, engineering analysis. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) has developed a Clearinghouse for Inventories & Emission Factors containing AP-42 and other emission factors. Appendix A of AP-42 lists several common conversion factors that may be needed to calculate potential to emit. Part C: Process Tank Details Part C identifies the process tanks, the rectifier capacity and bath components of each tank, materials processed, raw material usage, and tanks under common control. 13. Process Tank: List each process tank. 14. Rectifier Capacity: For each of the process tanks, provide the rectifier capacity in amperes (A). 15. Bath Components: For each of the process tanks, identify all the bath components including wetting agents, if applicable. 16. Materials Processed: List all materials being processed. 17. Raw Material Usage Rate: For each of the materials processed, provide the raw material usage rate in pounds per hour (lb/hr). 18. Common Control: Place a check in the appropriate box to indicate whether emissions from the process tank are controlled by a device that also controls emissions from another process tank. Part D: Federal Rule Applicability Part D identifies any federal rules that apply to the process. 19. Is a New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) applicable to this source? Specify whether a New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) is applicable to the process unit(s). If a New Source Performance Standard (NSPS) applies, list the rule citation and title in the space provided and submit a FED-01 form to identify the applicable portions of the rule. 20. Is a National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Chromium Electroplating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart N) applicable to this source? Specify whether the National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Chromium Electroplating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart N) is applicable to the process unit(s). If this NESHAP applies, submit a FED-01 form to identify the applicable portions of the rule. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) provides lists of NESHAP on the Rules and Implementation section of the Air Toxics Website. 21. Non-Applicability Determination: Provide an explanation of non-applicability if the process unit would appear to be subject to a rule (based on the rule title of affected source category), but the rule will not apply to the process. For example, if the process unit is part of the source category subject to a rule, but the process unit in question is not subject to the rule, state the reason why the unit is not subject.
