Universal Citation: WY Code of Rules 8-5
Current through September 21, 2024
(a) Applicability.
(i) This rule applies to a
facility or source operating in an ozone nonattainment area(s), as identified
in 40 CFR Part 81, if:
(A) The facility or
source has been granted permit approval to construct and/or operate under
Chapter 6 of the Wyoming Air Quality Standards and Regulations (WAQSR);
or
(B) It is an individual oil or
gas facility or source; or
(C)
Actual emissions from the stationary facility or source are greater than or
equal to 25 tons per year of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as defined in
Chapter 3, Section
6(a) of the WAQSR, or
oxides of nitrogen (NOx).
(I) If NOx or VOCs are
emitted from a facility or source at or above the applicability threshold
identified in subsection (a)(i)(C), both air contaminants must be included in
the emission inventory even if one of the air contaminants is emitted at a
level below the applicability threshold.
(ii) Compliance with emission inventory
requirements established under WAQSR Chapter 6, Section
3(f)(v)(G), satisfies the
requirements of this rule.
(b) Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements.
(i) As specified in the forms required in
subsection (b)(v), each emission inventory shall include:
(A) Actual emissions of
NOx, VOC, and any other air contaminants as determined
by the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality Air Quality Division
Administrator, in tons per year for any calendar year emission inventory, or in
tons for any partial year emission inventory;
(B) The physical location at which the actual
emissions occurred;
(C) The name
and address of the person or entity operating or owning the facility or source;
and
(D) The nature of the facility
or source.
(ii) The
emission inventory submittal dates are as follows:
(A) By April 30th
of each year for all emissions that occurred during the previous calendar year;
and
(B) No later than 90 days after
the end of a partial year inventory for emissions that occurred during the
partial year as determined by the Division Administrator.
(iii) After the owner or operator submits an
emission inventory for all facility or source emissions that occurred during
calendar year 2014, the owner or operator shall submit an emission inventory
for such facility or source every year thereafter.
(iv) Each owner or operator of a facility or
source shall maintain a copy of the emission inventory submitted to the
Division, and records indicating how the information submitted was determined,
including any calculations, data, and measurements used.
(A) Records shall be kept for a period of at
least five years from the required submittal date listed in subsection (b)(ii)
for each emission inventory.
(B)
The owner or operator of the facility or source shall make the records required
in subsection (b)(iv) available for inspection by any representative of the
Division upon request.
(v) The owner or operator shall submit
emission inventories using Division-prescribed hard copy or electronic
formats.
(vi) All emission
inventory submissions shall be certified as being true, accurate, and complete
by a responsible official to the best of their knowledge. A responsible
official is an individual who is responsible for the data provided in the
emission inventory, and who accepts responsibility for the emission
accuracy.
(c) Compliance. Compliance with WAQSR Chapter 8, Section 5, does not relieve any owner or operator of a facility or source from the responsibility to comply with any other applicable reporting requirements set forth in any federal or State law, rule or regulation, or in any permit.
