Clean Air Act or CAA means the federal Clean Air Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq. 2.4. Commercial and industrial solid waste incineration unit or CISWI unit means any combustion unit that combusts, commercial or industrial waste, that is a distinct operating unit of any commercial or industrial facility (including field erected, modular, and custom built incineration units operating with starved or excess air), and any air curtain incinerator that is a distinct operating unit of any commercial or industrial facility that does not comply with the opacity limit in Table 18-1C applicable to air curtain incinerators burning commercial or industrial waste. While not all CISWI units will include all of the following components, a CISWI unit includes, but is not limited to, the commercial or industrial solid waste feed system, grate system, flue gas system, waste heat recovery equipment, if any, and bottom ash system. The CISWI unit does not include air pollution control equipment or the stack. The CISWI unit boundary starts at the commercial and industrial waste hopper (if applicable) and extends through two areas: the combustion unit flue gas system, which ends immediately after the last combustion chamber or after the waste heat recovery equipment, if any; and the combustion unit bottom ash system, which ends at the truck loading station or similar equipment that transfers the ash to final disposal. The CISWI unit includes all ash handling systems connected to the bottom ash handling system. A CISWI unit does not include any of the fifteen types of units described in 40 CFR 60.2555, nor does it include any combustion turbine or reciprocating internal combustion engine. 2.5. Hospital/medical/infectious waste incinerator or HMIWI unit means any device that combusts any amount of hospital waste or medical/infectious waste. 2.6. Municipal waste combustor unit or municipal waste combustor means any setting or equipment that combusts solid, liquid, or gasified municipal solid waste including, but not limited to, field-erected incinerators (with or without heat recovery), modular incinerators (starved-air or excess-air), boilers (i.e., steam generating units), furnaces (whether suspension-fired, grate-fired, mass-fired, air curtain incinerators, or fluidized bed-fired), and pyrolysis/combustion units. 2.6.a. Municipal waste combustors do not include pyrolysis/combustion units located at a plastics/rubber recycling unit as specified in 40 CFR 60.50b(m). Municipal waste combustors do not include cement kilns firing municipal solid waste as specified in 40 CFR 60.50b(p). Municipal waste combustors do not include internal combustion engines, gas turbines, or other combustion devices that combust landfill gases collected by landfill gas collection systems. 2.6.b. The boundaries of a municipal waste combustor are defined as follows. The municipal waste combustor unit includes, but is not limited to, the municipal solid waste fuel feed system, grate system, flue gas system, bottom ash system, and the combustor water system. The municipal waste combustor boundary starts at the municipal solid waste pit or hopper and extends through: 2.6.b.1. The combustor flue gas system, which ends immediately following the heat recovery equipment or, if there is no heat recovery equipment, immediately following the combustion chamber; 2.6.b.2. The combustor bottom ash system, which ends at the truck loading station or similar ash handling equipment that transfer the ash to final disposal, including all ash handling systems that are connected to the bottom ash handling system; and 2.6.b.3. The combustor water system, which starts at the feed water pump and ends at the piping exiting the steam drum or superheater. 2.7. Other solid waste incineration unit or OSWI unit means either a very small municipal waste combustion unit or an institutional waste incineration unit. Unit types listed in 40 CFR 60.2887 are not OSWI units. While not all OSWI units will include all of the following components, an OSWI unit includes, but is not limited to, the municipal or institutional solid waste feed system, grate system, flue gas system, waste heat recovery equipment, if any, and bottom ash system. The OSWI unit does not include air pollution control equipment or the stack. The OSWI unit boundary starts at the municipal or institutional waste hopper (if applicable) and extends through two areas: 2.7.a. The combustion unit flue gas system, which ends immediately after the last combustion chamber or after the waste heat recovery equipment, if any; and 2.7.b. The combustion unit bottom ash system, which ends at the truck loading station or similar equipment that transfers the ash to final disposal. The OSWI unit includes all ash handling systems connected to the bottom ash handling system. 2.8. Person means any and all persons, natural or artificial, including the state of West Virginia or any other state, the United States of America, any municipal, statutory, public or private corporation organized or existing under the laws of this or any other state or country, and any firm, partnership or association of whatever nature. 2.9.
