Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 38, September 20, 2024
a) The owner or operator of an emission unit, or an authorized representative, may change the procedures, methods, or operating parameters of the emissions test at the time of the emissions test, provided that the change is a minor deviation as defined in Section 283.130 of this Part. The emission unit owner or operator shall ensure that documentation of the change is submitted to the Agency along with the test results.
b) If the owner or operator of an emission unit elects to use the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section, the following procedures shall apply, depending on the relevant circumstances:
1) If a representative of the Agency is
on-site for the purpose of witnessing the emissions test, the owner or operator
of the emission unit or an authorized representative may request permission
from the Agency's representative to change the procedures, methods, or
operating parameters of the emissions test as specified in the test plan,
submitted pursuant to the provisions of Section
283.220 of
this Part, provided that the change is a minor deviation, as defined in Section
283.130 of this Part.
A) If the Agency representative approves the
minor deviation, all test runs performed with this minor deviation may not be
deemed invalid test runs by the Agency on the sole basis of the minor
deviation.
B) If the Agency
representative disapproves the change to the procedures, methods, or operating
parameters of the emissions test as specified in the test plan, then the owner
or operator of the emission unit or an authorized representative may elect to
perform the emissions test with the change. However, the Agency may
subsequently disapprove the emissions test results if it finds that a valid
test run was not obtained as a result of the change.
2) If an Agency representative is not on-site
for the purpose of witnessing the emissions test, the owner or operator of the
emission unit or an authorized representative may elect to change the
procedures, methods, or operating parameters of the emissions test as specified
in the test plan, provided the change is a minor deviation, as defined in
Section
283.130 of this Part.
However, the Agency may disapprove the emissions test results if it finds that
a valid test run was not obtained as a result of the change.
