Multi-Sector Air Pollutants Regulations — 61
Election 61 (1) The responsible person must — by the October 31 immediately before the first year in respect of which the limit referred to in section 60 is to apply — make the election by providing the Minister with the following information for inclusion in the engine registry for each subgroup that they establish under section 65 : (a) the serial number — or, if the serial number is not known or cannot be obtained, the unique alphanumeric identifier — of each pre-existing engine and replacement unit that belongs to the subgroup; and (b) each NO x emission value, if any, that is assigned under section 67 to a pre-existing engine, or a replacement unit that is a modern engine, that belongs to the subgroup. Yearly average NO x emission intensity (2) The yearly average NO x emission intensity of a subgroup for a year is determined by the formula Σ i Σ j (E ij ×P i × T ij )/Σ i Σ j (P i × T ij ) where E ij is the jth NO x emission value, expressed in ppmvd 15% or g/kWh, assigned under subsection 66 (1) or 67 (1) to the ith engine or replacement unit that belongs to the subgroup; P i is the rated brake power, expressed in kW, of the ith engine or replacement unit that belongs to the subgroup; T ij is — excluding any period referred to in section 49 — (a) the number of hours during the year that the ith engine or replacement unit operated while it belonged to the subgroup and had an assigned NO x emission value of E ij , or (b) the number of days during the year that the ith engine or replacement unit operated at any time during a day while it belonged to the subgroup and had an assigned NO x emission value of E ij , if T ij is determined under this paragraph for all the engines and replacement units that belong to the subgroup; i is the ith engine or replacement unit that belongs to the subgroup, where i goes from 1 to m and where m is the number of those engines and replacement units that belong to the subgroup; and j is the jth assignment under subsection 66 (1) or 67 (1) of a NO x emission value to the ith engine or replacement unit that belongs to the subgroup, where j goes from 1 to n and where n is the number of assignments of NO x emission values under those subsections to that engine or replacement unit during the year. Number of hours (3) The number of hours during a year referred to in paragraph (a) of the description of T ij in subsection (2) must be determined (a) by means of a non-resettable hour meter, or another non-resettable device, installed on the ith engine or replacement unit to take readings that are recorded along with the dates of the readings and the serial number — or, if the serial number is not known or cannot be obtained, the unique alphanumeric identifier — make and model of the engine within the shortest feasible period before or after (i) January 1 of that year, (ii) January 1 of the year after that year, (iii) the date of any change in the NO x emission value assigned to the ith engine under subsection 66 (1) or 67 (1), (iv) the date on which the ith engine or replacement unit is designated as belonging to the subgroup, and (v) the date on which the ith engine or replacement unit ceases to belong to the group; (b) by means of a log of operations used to make a record in respect of the ith engine or replacement unit at least once every 30 days during that year that contains (i) data related to the number of hours that it has operated on each day since any previous record, (ii) the dates of those days, (iii) its make, model and serial number or, if the serial number is not known or cannot be obtained, unique alphanumeric identifier, and (iv) the initials of the person making the record; or (c) by means of a SCADA system used to make a record in respect of the ith engine or replacement unit at least once every 30 days during that year that contains (i) data that is taken every 15 minutes and used to determine the number of hours that it has operated, (ii) the dates on which that data was taken, and (
