Limits to emissions are :
o Total particulate matter 200mg/m3. Should be continuously monitored.
o Carbon Monoxide new: Limit values < 1 MW 250 mg/m3 , > 1MW 150 mg/m3 for non continuous monitoring .
o Where monitoring is continuous 95%of 15 minute average for each rolling 24 hour period not to exceed the emission limit values and the peak values not to exceed twice the limit values.
