Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-002853

1. Specific quantity or lot of a test, control, or reference substance that has been characterized according to § 792.105(a).

2. Product of an individual production run of a coating manufacturer's process. A batch may vary in composition from other batches of the same product.

3. Single fermentation cycle in a single fermentation vessel (fermenter).

4. Either a volume of crude oil that enters a refinery or the components of such volume (e.g., the volumes of different crude streams that are blended together and then delivered to a refinery). The batch volume is the first appropriate tier in the following list:(1) Up to an annual volume of a type of crude oil identified by an EIA crude stream code, if the EIA crude stream code is known.(2) Up to an annual volume of a type of crude oil identified by a generic name for the crude stream and an appropriate EIA two-letter country or state and production area code, if the generic name and EIA two-letter code are known but no appropriate EIA crude stream code exists.(3) Up to a calendar month of crude oil volume from a single known foreign country of origin if the crude stream name is unknown.(4) Up to a calendar month of crude oil volume from the United States if the crude stream name and production area are unknown.

5. Specific quantity or lot of a test, control, or reference substance that has been characterized according to § 160.105(a).

6. Collection of compressors of the same category or configuration, as designated by the Administrator in a test request, from which a batch sample is to be randomly drawn and inspected to determine conformance with the acceptability criteria.

7. Collection of vehicles of the same category, configuration or subgroup thereof as designated by the Administrator in a test request, from which a batch sample is to be drawn, and inspected to determine -conformance with the acceptability -criteria.

8. Descaling operations in which the products are processed in discrete batches.

9. Pickling operations which process steel products such as coiled wire, rods, and tubes in discrete batches or bundles.

10. A quantity of fuel, fuel additive, or regulated blendstock that has a homogeneous set of properties. This also includes fuel, fuel additive, or regulated blendstock for which homogeneity testing is not required under § 1090.1337(a).
