(B) the maximum daily heat input, Hmi, specified in § 117.1220(c)(2) of this title;

(C) the method of monitoring emissions; and

(D) the method of providing substitute emissions data when the NOX monitoring system is not providing valid data; and

(3) an explanation of the basis of the values of H i and Hmi.

(c) The report must be submitted by the applicable date specified for final control plans in § 117.9120 of this title (relating to Compliance Schedule for Houston-Galveston-Brazoria Ozone Nonattainment Area Utility Electric Generation Sources). The plan must be updated with any emission compliance measurements submitted for units using continuous emissions monitoring system or predictive emissions monitoring system and complying with the system cap rolling 30-day average emission limit, according to the applicable schedule given in § 117.9120 of this title.
