Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 18, September 24, 2024
Beginning with the 2003 emission inventory, all stationary
sources with actual emissions of one hundred (100) tons per year or more of
SO2 in the year 2000, or in any subsequent year, shall
submit an annual inventory of SO2 emissions. A source
that meets these criteria, and then emits less than 100 tons per year in a
later year shall submit a SO2 inventory for tracking
compliance with the regional SO2 milestones until the
western backstop sulfur dioxide trading program has been fully implemented and
emission tracking has occurred under
20.11.46.16
NMAC, monitoring, record keeping and reporting.
A. All sources meeting the criteria
immediately above in 20.11.46.9 NMAC will be subject to the following federally
enforceable provisions:
(1) submit an annual
inventory of SO2 emissions;
(2) document the emissions
monitoring/estimation methodology used to calculate their
SO2 emissions, and demonstrate that the selected
methodology is acceptable under the inventory program;
(3) include emissions from start up, shut
down, and upset conditions in the annual total inventory;
(4) use 40 CFR Part 75 methodology for
reporting emissions for all sources subject to the federal acid rain
program;
(5) maintain all records
used in the calculation of the emissions, including but not limited to the
following:
(a) amount of fuel
consumed;
(b) percent sulfur
content of fuel and how the content was determined;
(c) quantity of product produced;
(d) emissions monitoring data;
(e) operating data; and
(f) how the emissions are
calculated;
(6) maintain
records of any physical changes to facility operations or equipment, or any
other changes that may affect the emissions projections; and
(7) retain records for a minimum of 10 years
from the date of establishment, or if the record was the basis for an
adjustment to the milestone, five years after the date of an implementation
plan revision, whichever is longer.
B. Reporting requirements.
(1) Except as provided in Paragraph (2) of
Subsection B of 20.11.46.9 NMAC, the owner or operator shall submit the
emission report by April 1 each year immediately following the year for which
the source is required to report emissions data.
(2) Sources for which a date for submitting
an annual emission report is specified in a current operating permit issued
under 20.11.42 NMAC, operating permits, shall submit such
report on the date specified in the permit. The department shall provide a copy
of the previous emissions report upon request by the owner or operator of such
source.
C. Emissions
report contents shall include:
(1) the name,
address, and physical location of the stationary source;
(2) the name and telephone number of the
person to contact regarding the emissions report;
(3) a certification signed by the owner, or
operator, or a responsible official as defined in 20.11.42 NMAC attesting that
the statements and information contained in the emissions report are true and
accurate to the best knowledge and belief of the certifying official, and
including the full name, title, signature, date of signature, and telephone
number of the certifying official; for sources subject to 20.11.42 NMAC, the
certification shall be made as required under 20.11.42 NMAC;
(4) smelters shall submit an annual report of
sulfur input, in tons per year;
(5)
for each emission point additional information may be required by the
department:
(a) stack and exhaust gas
parameters;
(b) type of control
equipment and estimated control efficiency;
(c) schedule of operation;
(d) estimated actual emissions, including
fugitive emissions and emissions occurring during maintenance, start-ups,
shutdowns, upsets, and downtime, of sulfur oxides, in tons per year, and a
description of the methods utilized to make such estimates, including
calculations;
(e) the annual
process or fuel combustion rates; and
(f) the fuel heat, sulfur, and ash
content.
D.
The department shall retain emission inventory records for non-utilities for
1996 and 1998 until the year 2018 to ensure that changes in emissions
monitoring techniques can be tracked.
