Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 38, September 20, 2024
a) By
January 1, 2017, the owner or operator of a source must submit to the Agency
the following:
1) A certification that the
source will be in compliance with the provisions in this Subpart by January 1,
2017;
2) For a source with an
emission unit demonstrating compliance through performance testing:
A) The results of the initial performance
test conducted pursuant to Section 214.604(e)(1);
B) The calculations necessary to demonstrate
that the emission unit will be in initial compliance; and
C) A description of the measures the source
will take to ensure the emission unit continues to operate within the
parameters enumerated in the testing results submitted to the Agency for each
test used to demonstrate compliance, including how those parameters will ensure
ongoing compliance with the applicable limitation in Section 214.603 and the
specific monitoring procedures that will be implemented for each
parameter;
3) For a
source with an emission unit demonstrating compliance through the use of a
continuous emissions monitoring system, a certification of the installation and
operation of the continuous emissions monitoring system and the monitoring data
necessary to demonstrate that the emission unit will be in initial
compliance;
4) For a source with an
emission unit demonstrating compliance through the use of an alternative
monitoring method under 40 CFR 75, a description of the alternative monitoring
method being used and the monitoring data necessary to demonstrate that the
emission unit will be in initial compliance; and
5) A description of the method or methods the
source will use to comply with all applicable emission limitations in Section
214.603, including a description of all control devices used and, for sources
with emission units demonstrating compliance through performance testing, the
operating parameters for those devices.
b) The owner or operator of a source must
keep and maintain records that demonstrate ongoing compliance with the
requirements of this Subpart. The records must include the following:
1) The calendar date of the record;
2) Reports for all performance tests
conducted pursuant to Section 214.604(e), including the date of the test and
the results;
3) A log of the date,
time, nature, and results of all parametric monitoring conducted pursuant to
Section 214.604(e)(8);
4) For each
SO2 continuous emissions monitoring system, a log
indicating any periods when the device was not in service, maintenance and
inspection activities performed on the device, and all information necessary to
demonstrate compliance with the monitoring requirements in Section
214.604;
5) The date, time, and
duration of any malfunction in the operation of an emission unit addressed in
Section 214.603 or any SO2 control equipment for that
unit, if the malfunction causes an exceedance of any applicable emission
limitation in Section 214.603, and the date, time, and duration of any
malfunction in the operation of any SO2 emissions
monitoring equipment for that unit. The records must include a description of
the malfunction, the probable cause of the malfunction, the date and nature of
the corrective action taken, and any preventative action taken to avoid future
malfunctions;
6) A log of all
inspections, cleaning, maintenance, and repair activities performed on
SO2 control equipment for an emission unit addressed in
Section 214.603, including the date and nature of those activities. The log
must indicate any changes made to the control equipment, including removal or
replacement of the equipment; and
7) For emission units subject to the emission
limitation in Section 214.603(e), the SO2 emission rate
of the units for each averaging period and supporting calculations.
c) Except as otherwise indicated
in this Subpart, the owner or operator of a source with an emission unit
demonstrating compliance through performance testing must submit the results of
all tests conducted pursuant to Section 214.604(e) within 60 days after
completion of the test.
d) The
owner or operator of a source must notify the Agency at least 30 days prior to
changing the method of demonstrating compliance for an emission unit addressed
in Section 214.603. The owner or operator must also comply with the following,
as applicable:
1) For an emission unit
changing the method of demonstrating compliance from performance testing to use
of a continuous emissions monitoring system, submit to the Agency a
certification of the installation and operation of the continuous emissions
monitoring system and the monitoring data necessary to demonstrate compliance.
The submittal must be made within 30 days after beginning operation of the
continuous emissions monitoring system, and on or before the performance
testing deadline determined in accordance with Section 214.604(e)(2);
2) For an emission unit changing the method
of demonstrating compliance from use of a continuous emissions monitoring
system to performance testing, submit to the Agency the following. The
submittal must be made prior to discontinuing operation of the continuous
emissions monitoring system:
A) The results of
the initial performance test conducted pursuant to Section
214.604(e)(1);
B) The calculations
necessary to demonstrate compliance; and
C) A description of the measures the source
will take to ensure the emission unit continues to operate within the
parameters enumerated in the testing results submitted to the Agency for each
test used to demonstrate compliance, including how the parameters will ensure
ongoing compliance with the applicable limitation in Section 214.603 and the
specific monitoring procedures that will be implemented for each
parameter;
3) For an
emission unit changing the method of demonstrating compliance from use of a
continuous emissions monitoring system to an alternative monitoring method
under 40 CFR 75, submit to the Agency a description of the alternative
monitoring method being used and the monitoring data necessary to demonstrate
compliance. The submittal must be made prior to discontinuing operation of the
continuous emissions monitoring system.
e) The owner or operator of a source must
notify the Agency within 30 days after discovery of deviations from any of the
requirements in this Subpart or any exceedance of an applicable emission
limitation in Section 214.603. At minimum, and in addition to any permitting
obligations, the notification must include a description of the deviations or
exceedances, a discussion of the possible cause of the deviations or
exceedances, any corrective actions taken, and any preventative measures
taken.
f) The owner or operator of
a source must maintain all records required by this Section at the source for a
minimum of 5 years, and provide copies of the records to the Agency within 30
days after receipt of a request by the Agency.
