Title	Offsite Notification Due to Failed Emissions Test
Event Description	I am calling you to provide a notification of a potentially failed air emission test on an auxiliary boiler. There is absolutely no evidence to suggest that any emissions from our boilers caused any harm to human health, welfare, or the environment. The emissions are not continuing and there is no assistance required or requested. The statute requires I provide this notification to assert an affirmative defense or a rescission as appropriate. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Hotline was called to report this, Case number 07-0517-134537, operator 27. During the start-up tuning and testing of our new auxiliary boilers, it appears that a malfunction of equipment during testing resulted in inconclusive test results for NOx loading for our #1 Boiler. For the testing runs, the measured volumetric stack flows were significantly higher than the stoichiometrically calculated stack flows based on fuel flow measurements. While we are still investigating this discrepancy, we preliminarily believe that it was the result of either equipment malfunction, performance of necessary equipment maintenance and equipment start-up and shutdown. The licensee has notified the State (DEP) and will be notifying the NRC Resident Inspector.
