(a) shall limit particulate matter emissions to no more than:

(b) shall control emissions from each dryer or mixer at all times during operation using control equipment capable of achieving the applicable emission limit;

(c) shall shut down an emitting unit using a baghouse control device needing a bag replacement until the replacement bag is installed;

(d) shall install and maintain a device to measure the pressure drop on the control device, such as a magnehelic gauge or manometer. The pressure drop must be measured in inches of water and recorded daily; and
