For measurement of the amount of particles in gases resulting from combustion, standard corrections shall be applied to a stack temperature of 500ºF and 50% excess air.

(G) Fumes and gases. Fumes or gases shall not be emitted at any point in concentrations of amounts that are noxious, toxic or corrosive. The values given in Table 1 (industrial hygiene standards - maximum allowable concentration for eight-hour day, five days per week), Table III (odor thresholds), Table IV (exposure to substances causing pain in the eyes) and Table I (exposure to substances causing injury to vegetation) in the latest revision of Chapter 5, “Physiological Effects”, that contains such tables, in the Air Pollution Abatement Manual, by the Manufacturing Chemists’ Association, Inc., Washington, D.C., are hereby established as guides for the determination of permissible concentrations or amounts.
