(21) an alternate sampling or testing procedure approved by the department and developed or approved by the U.S. environmental protection agency as an equivalent or improved procedure.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of these regulations, data from continuous emission monitoring systems may be used for purposes of determining compliance with any emission limitation or standard only if:

(1) the emissions are from an affected source and the continuous emission monitoring system is subject to, and in compliance with, the requirements of 40 CFR part 75; or

(2) the continuous emission monitoring system is not subject to 40 CFR part 75 and:
(A) a written quality assurance and quality control plan is maintained by the owner or operator of the emission source;

(B) the plan includes the more stringent of either all recommendations of the manufacturer or manufacturers of the continuous emission monitoring system components or all applicable quality assurance and quality control requirements required by any state or federal regulation or air quality permit;

(C) the owner or operator maintains records demonstrating adherence to the quality assurance and quality control plan; and

(D) the quality assurance and quality control plan is reviewed and updated annually.

Data from a continuous emission monitoring system which satisfies the requirements of this subsection and which demonstrates compliance with the relevant emission limitation or standard, shall create a rebuttable presumption of compliance with the relevant emission limitation or standard.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of these regulations, data which demonstrates non-compliance with an emission limitation or standard shall create a rebuttable presumption of non-compliance if the data is from continuous emission monitoring systems or any other sampling or monitoring protocols, and the systems or protocols are required by:

(2) any air quality regulation;

(3) any compliance plan;

(4) any order or consent agreement issued pursuant to the authorities specified in the Kansas air quality act;

(5) the provisions of any air quality construction or operating permit; or

(6) any other provision or authority of the Kansas air quality act or air quality regulation.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this regulation, any credible evidence may be used for the purpose of establishing non-compliance with an emission limitation or standard.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of these regulations, the owner or operator is not prohibited from using the following in addition to any specified compliance methods for the purpose of submission of compliance certifications:

(1) an enhanced monitoring protocol approved by the department; or
