Sec. 24.
(a) A source owner subject to this rule may request to comply with streamlined requirements for any unit subject to multiple requirements for a specific pollutant, provided the streamlined requirements are established under the Part 70 permit issuance, renewal, or significant permit modification process under this rule.
(b) A source proposing the streamlining of multiple requirements shall use the following procedures:
(c) In the event the department determines the proposal to be inadequate, the applicant shall be notified and given a reasonable deadline to respond.
(d) The commissioner shall include citations to all subsumed requirements in the Part 70 permit's specification of the origin and authority of permit conditions and shall specify all subsumed requirements under the permit shield. In addition, the Part 70 permit shall include any additional terms and conditions necessary to assure compliance with the streamlined requirement and all subsumed requirements. In all instances, the proposed permit terms and conditions shall be enforceable as a practical matter.
(e) The commissioner may deny a request for streamlining of multiple requirements for any of the following reasons:
(f) In carrying out the public participation and notice to affected states requirements under section 17 of this rule, the commissioner shall do the following:
(g) A streamlined requirement is approved for the source by the U.S. EPA if it is incorporated in an issued Part 70 permit to which the U.S. EPA has not objected. Public comments concerning a Part 70 permit that includes a streamlined requirement shall be transmitted to the U.S. EPA no later than five (5) working days after the end of the public comment period. The commissioner's determination of approval is not binding on the U.S. EPA.
(h) If the commissioner or the U.S. EPA determines that the Part 70 permit does not assure compliance with applicable requirements, the commissioner shall reopen and revise the permit.
(i) The source shall comply with all applicable requirements to be subsumed by the proposed streamlined requirement until the Part 70 permit has been issued with the streamlined requirements.
(j) A source violating a streamlined limitation or requirement in a Part 70 permit may be subject to an enforcement action for violation of one (1) or more of the subsumed requirements.
(k) Noncompliance with any provision in a permit established pursuant to this section constitutes a violation of this rule.
