(a) Definition of affected source
. The provisions of this subpart apply to each affected source. Affected sources are described in paragraphs (a)(1) through (a)(4) of this section. (1) An affected sour ce is either an existing affected source or a new affected source. Existing affected source is defined in paragraph (a)(2) of this section, and new affected source is defined in paragraph (a)(3) of this section. (2) An existing affected source is defined a s each group of one or more thermoplastic product process units (TPPU) and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section that is not part of a new affected source, as defined in paragraph (a)(3) of this section, that is manufacturing the samePage 3 of 388

primary product, and that is located at a plant site that is a major source. (3) A new affected source is defined by the criteria in paragraph (a)(3)(i), (a)(3)(ii), or (a)(3)(iii) of this section. The situation described in paragraph (a)(3)(i) of this section is distinct from those situations described in paragraphs (a)(3)(ii) and (a)(3)(iii) of this section and from any situation described in paragraph (i) of this section. (i) At a site without HAP emission points before March 29, 1995 ( i.e., a “ greenfield” site), each group of one or more TPPU and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section, that is manufacturing the same primary product and that is part of a major source on which construction commenced after March 29, 199 5; (ii) A group of one or more TPPU meeting the criteria in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of this section; or (iii) A reconstructed affected source meeting the criteria in paragraph (i)(2)(i) of this section.

(vi) Equipment Components required by, or utilized as a method of compliance with, t his subpart , which may include control devices and recovery devices. (5) TPPUs and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section, that are located at plant sites that are not major sources are neither affected sources nor part of an

a ffected source. (b) TPPUs without organic HAP
. The owner or operator of a TPPU that is part of an affected source, as defined in paragraph (a) of this section, but that does not use or manufacture any organic HAP shall comply with the requirements of eithe r paragraph (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section. Such a TPPU is not subject to any other provisions of this subpart and is not required to comply with the provisions of subpart A of this part.Page 5 of 388

(1) Retain information, data, and analyses used to document the ba sis for the determination that the TPPU does not use or manufacture any organic HAP. Types of information that could document this determination include, but are not limited to, records of chemicals purchased for the process, analyses of process stream com position, engineering calculations, or process knowledge. (2) When requested by the Administrator, demonstrate that the TPPU does not use or manufacture any organic HAP. (c) Emission points not subject to the provisions of this subpart
. The affected source includes the emission points listed in paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(9) of this section, but these emission points are not subject to the requirements of this subpart or to the provisions of subpart A of this part. (1) Components and E e quipment that do es not contain organic HAP and is are located within a TPPU that is part of an affected

source; (2) Stormwater from segregated sewers; (3) Water from fire

(d) Processes exempted excluded from the affected source
. The processes specified in paragraphs (d)(1) through (d)(5) of this section are exempted from not part of the affected source and are not subject to the requirements of both this subpart and subpart A of this part : (1) Research and development facilities; (2) Polymerization processes occurring in a mold; (3) Processes which manufacture binder systems containing a thermoplastic produc t for paints, coatings, or adhesives; (4) Finishing processes including equipment such as compounding units, spinning units, drawing units, extruding units, and other finishing steps; and (5) Solid state polymerization processes. (e) Applicability determin ation of nonthermoplastic equipment included within the boundaries of a TPPU
. If a polymer that is not a thermoplastic product is produced within the equipment ( i.e., collocated) making up a TPPU and at least 50 percent of that polymer is used in the produ ction of a thermoplastic product manufactured by the same TPPU, then thePage 7 of 388

unit operations involved in the production of that polymer are considered part of the TPPU and are subject to this subpart, with the following exception. Any emission points from such unit operations that are subject to another subpart of this part with an effective date prior to September 5, 1996 shall remain subject to that other subpart of this part and are not subject to this subpart. (f) Primary product determination and applicabi lity
. An owner or operator of a process unit that produces or plans to produce a thermoplastic product shall determine if the process unit is subject to this subpart in accordance with this paragraph. The owner or operator shall initially determine whether a process unit is designated as a TPPU and subject to the provisions of this subpart in accordance with either paragraph (f)(1) or (f)(2) of this section. The owner or operator of a flexible operation unit that was not initially designated as a TPPU, but in which a thermoplastic product is produced, shall conduct an annual re

- determination of the applicability of this subpart in accordance with paragraph (f)(3) of this section. Owners or operators that anticipate the production of a thermoplastic product i n a process unit that was not initially designated as a TPPU, and in which no thermoplastic products are currently produced, shall determine if the process unit is subject to this subpart in accordancePage 8 of 388

with paragraph (f)(4) of this section. Paragraphs (f)( 3) and (f)(5) through (f)(7) of this section discuss compliance only for flexible operation units. Other paragraphs apply to all process units, including flexible operation units, unless otherwise noted. Paragraph (f)(8) of this section contains reporting requirements associated with the applicability determinations. Paragraphs (f)(9) and (f)(10) of this section describe criteria for removing the TPPU designation from a process unit. (1) Initial determination
. The owner or operator shall initially determine if a process unit is subject to the provisions of this subpart based on the primary product of the process unit in accordance with paragraphs (f)(1)(i) through (iii) of this section. If the process unit never uses or manufactures any organic HAP, regardle ss of the outcome of the primary product determination, the only requirements of this subpart that might apply to the process unit are contained in paragraph (b) of this section. If a flexible operation unit does not use or manufacture any organic HAP duri ng the manufacture of one or more products, paragraph (f)(5)(i) of this section applies to that flexible operation unit. (i) If a process unit only manufactures one product, then that product shall represent the primary product of the process unit.Page 9 of 388

(ii) If a process unit produces more than one intended product at the same time, the primary product shall be determined in accordance with paragraph (f)(1)(ii)(A) or (B) of this section. (A) The product for which the process unit has the greatest annual design c apacity on a mass basis shall represent the primary product of the process unit, or (B) If a process unit has the same maximum annual design capacity on a mass basis for two or more products, and if one of those products is a thermoplastic product, then th e thermoplastic product shall represent the primary product of the process unit. (iii) If a process unit is designed and operated as a flexible operation unit, the primary product shall be determined as specified in paragraphs (f)(1)(iii)(A) or (B) of this section based on the anticipated operations for the 5 years following September 12, 1996 at existing process units, or for the first year after the process unit begins production of any product for new process units. If operations cannot be anticipated

su fficiently to allow the determination of the primary product for the specified period, applicability shall be determined (in accordance with paragraph (f)(2) of this section. (A) If the flexible operation unit will manufacture one product for the greatest operating time over the specified 5Page 10 of 388

year period for existing process units, or the specified 1 year period for new process units, then that product shall represent the primary product of the flexible operation unit. (B) If the flexible operation unit will manufacture multiple products equally based on operating time, then the product with the greatest expected production on a mass basis over the specified 5 year period for existing process units, or the specified 1 year period for new process units shall

re present the primary product of the flexible operation unit. (iv) If, according to paragraph (f)(1)(i), (ii), or (iii) of this section, the primary product of a process unit is a thermoplastic product, then that process unit shall be designated as a TPPU. T hat TPPU and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section is either an affected source or part of an affected source comprised of other TPPU and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section, subject to this sub part with the same primary product at the same plant site that is a major source. If the primary product of a process unit is determined to be a product that is not a thermoplastic product, then that process unit is not a
TPPU. (2) If the primary product c annot be determined for a flexible operation unit in accordance with paragraph (f)(1)(iii)Page 11 of 388

of this section, applicability shall be determined in accordance with this paragraph. (i) If the owner or operator cannot determine the primary product in accordance with paragraph (f)(1)(iii) of this section, but can determine that a thermoplastic product is not the primary product, then that flexible operation unit is not a
TPPU. (ii) If the owner or operator cannot determine the primary product in accordance with p aragraph (f)(1)(iii) of this section, and cannot determine that a thermoplastic product is not the primary product as specified in paragraph (f)(2)(i) of this section, applicability shall be determined in accordance with paragraph (f)(2)(ii)(A) or (f)(2)(i i)(B) of this section. (A) If the flexible operation unit is an existing process unit, the flexible operation unit shall be designated as a TPPU if a thermoplastic product was produced for 5 percent or greater of the total operating time of the flexible op erating unit since March 9, 1999. That TPPU and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section, is either an affected source, or part of an affected source comprised of other TPPU and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section, subject to this subpart with the same primary product at the same plant site that is a major source. For a flexible operation unit that is designated as an TPPU in accordance withPage 12 of 388

this paragraph, the thermoplastic product produced for the greatest amount of time since March 9, 1999 shall be designated as the primary product of the TPPU. (B) If the flexible operation unit is a new process unit, the flexible operation unit shall be designated as a TPPU if the owner or operator anticipates th at a thermoplastic product will be manufactured in the flexible operation unit at any time in the first year after the date the unit begins production of any product. That TPPU and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section, is eit her an affected source, or part of an affected source comprised of other TPPU and associated equipment, as listed in paragraph (a)(4) of this section, subject to this subpart with the same primary product at the same plant site that is a major source. For a process unit that is designated as a TPPU in accordance with this paragraph, the thermoplastic product that will be produced shall be designated as the primary product of the TPPU. If more than one thermoplastic product will be produced, the owner or
ope rator may select which thermoplastic product is designated as the primary product. (3) Annual applicability determination for non

- TPPUs that have produced a thermoplastic product
. Once per year beginning September 12, 2001, the owner or operator of each fl exible operation unit that is not designated as a TPPU, but that hasPage 13 of 388

produced a thermoplastic product at any time in the preceding 5

- year period or since the date that the unit began production of any product, whichever is shorter, shall perform the evalua tion described in paragraphs (f)(3)(i) through (f)(3)(iii) of this section. However, an owner or operator that does not intend to produce any thermoplastic product in the future, in accordance with paragraph (f)(9) of this section, is not required to perfo rm the evaluation described in paragraphs (f)(3)(i) through (f)(3)(iii) of this section. (i) For each product produced in the flexible operation unit, the owner or operator shall calculate the percentage of total operating time over which the product was p roduced during the preceding 5

- year period. (ii) The owner or operator shall identify the primary product as the product with the highest percentage of total operating time for the preceding 5

- year period. (iii) If the primary product identified in paragra ph (f)(3)(ii) is a thermoplastic product, the flexible operation unit shall be designated as a TPPU. The owner or operator shall notify the Administrator no later than 45 days after determining that the flexible operation unit is a TPPU, and shall comply

w ith the requirements of this subpart in accordance with paragraph (i)(1) of this section for the flexible operation unit.Page 14 of 388

(4) Applicability determination for non

- TPPUs that have not produced a thermoplastic product
. The owner or operator that anticipates t he production of a thermoplastic product in a process unit that is not designated as a TPPU, and in which no thermoplastic products have been produced in the previous 5

- year period or since the date that the process unit began production of any product, wh ichever is shorter, shall determine if the process unit is subject to this subpart in accordance with paragraphs (f)(4)(i) and (ii) of this section. Also, owners or operators who have notified the Administrator that a process unit is not a TPPU in accordan ce with paragraph (f)(9) of this section, that now anticipate the production of a thermoplastic product in the process unit, shall determine if the process unit is subject to this subpart in accordance with paragraphs (f)(4)(i) and (ii) of this section. (i ) The owner or operator shall use the procedures in paragraph (f)(1) or (f)(2) of this section to determine if the process unit is designated as a TPPU, with the following exception: For existing process units that are determining the primary product in ac cordance with paragraph (f)(1)(iii) of this section, production shall be projected for the five years following the date that the owner or operator anticipates initiating the production of a thermoplastic product.Page 15 of 388

(ii) If the unit is designated as a TPPU i n accordance with paragraph (f)(4)(i) of this section, the owner or operator shall comply in accordance with paragraph (i)(1) of this section. (5) Compliance for flexible operation units
. Owners or operators of TPPUs that are flexible operation units shall comply with the standards specified for the primary product, with the exceptions provided in paragraphs (f)(5)(i) and (f)(5)(ii) of this section. (i) Whenever a flexible operation unit manufactures a product in which no organic HAP is used or manufactured , the owner or operator is only required to comply with either paragraph (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section to demonstrate compliance for activities associated with the manufacture of that product. This subpart does not require compliance with the provisions of subpart A of this part for activities associated with the manufacture of a product that meets the criteria of paragraph (b) of this section. (ii) Whenever a flexible operation unit manufactures a product that makes it subject to subpart GGG of this par t, the owner or operator is not required to comply with the provisions of this subpart during the production of that product. (6) Owners or operators of TPPUs that are flexible operation units have the option of determining the group status of each emissio n point associated with the flexible operationPage 16 of 388

unit, in accordance with either paragraph (f)(6)(i) or (f)(6)(ii) of this section, with the exception of batch process vents. For batch process vents, the owner or operator shall determine the group status in accordance with §63.1323. (i) The owner or operator may determine the group status of each emission point based on emission point characteristics when the primary product is being manufactured. The criteria that shall be used for this group determination a re the Group 1 criteria specified for the primary product. (ii) The owner or operator may determine the group status of each emission point separately for each product produced by the flexible operation unit. For each product, the group status shall be det ermined using the emission point characteristics when that product is being manufactured and using the Group 1 criteria specified for the primary product. (Note: Under this scenario, it is possible that the group status, and therefore the requirement to ac hieve emission reductions, for an emission point may change depending on the product being manufactured.) (7) Owners or operators determining the group status of emission points in flexible operation units based solely on the primary product in accordance with paragraph (f)(6)(i) of this section shall establish parameter monitoring levels, as required, in accordance with either paragraph (f)(7)(i) or (f)(7)(ii) of this section. Owners or operators determining thePage 17 of 388

group status of emission points in flexible operation units based on each product in accordance with paragraph (f)(6)(ii) of this section shall establish parameter monitoring levels, as required, in accordance with paragraph (f)(7)(i) of this section. (i) Establish separate parameter monitoring leve ls in accordance with §63.1334(a) for each individual product. (ii) Establish a single parameter monitoring level (for each parameter required to be monitored at each device subject to monitoring requirements) in accordance with §63.1334(a) that would appl y for all products. (8) Reporting requirements
. When it is determined that a process unit is a TPPU and subject to the requirements of this subpart, the Notification of Compliance Status required by §63.1335(e)(5) shall include the information specified in paragraphs (f)(8)(i) and (f)(8)(ii) of this section, as applicable. If it is determined that the process unit is not subject to this subpart, the owner or operator shall either retain all information, data, and analysis used to document the basis for the determination that the primary product is not a thermoplastic product, or, when requested by the Administrator, demonstrate that the process unit is not subject to this subpart.Page 18 of 388

(i) If the TPPU manufactures only one thermoplastic product, identification of that thermoplastic product. (ii) If the TPPU is designed and operated as a flexible operation unit, the information specified in paragraphs (f)(8)(ii)(A) through (f)(8)(ii)(D) of this section, as appropriate, shall be submitted. (A) If a primary product c ould be determined, identification of the primary product. (B) Identification of which compliance option, either paragraph (f)(6)(i) or (f)(6)(ii) of this section, has been selected by the owner or operator. (C) If the option to establish separate paramete r monitoring levels for each product in paragraph (f)(7)(i) of this section is selected, the identification of each product and the corresponding parameter monitoring level. (D) If the option to establish a single parameter monitor level in paragraph (f)(7 )(ii) of this section is selected, the parameter monitoring level for each parameter. (9) TPPUs terminating production of all thermoplastic products
. If a TPPU terminates the production of all thermoplastic products and does not anticipate the production o f any thermoplastic products in the future, the process unit is no longer a TPPU and is not subject to this subpart after notification is made to the Administrator. This notificationPage 19 of 388

shall be accompanied by a rationale for why it is anticipated that no the rmoplastic products will be produced in the process unit in the future. (10) Redetermination of applicability to TPPUs that are flexible operation units
. Whenever changes in production occur that could reasonably be expected to change the primary product

o f a TPPU that is operating as a flexible operation unit from a thermoplastic product to a product that would make the process unit subject to another subpart of this part, the owner or operator shall re

- evaluate the status of the process unit as a TPPU in accordance with paragraphs (f)(10)(i) through (iii) of this section. (i) For each product produced in the flexible operation unit, the owner or operator shall calculate the percentage of total operating time in which the product was produced for the preced ing five

- year period, or since the date that the process unit began production of any product, whichever is shorter. (ii) The owner or operator shall identify the primary product as the product with the highest percentage of total operating time for the pe riod. (iii) If the conditions in (f)(10)(iii)(A) through (C) of this section are met, the flexible operation unit shall no longer be designated as a TPPU and shall no longer be subject to the provisions of this subpart after the date that the processPage 20 of 388

unit is required to be in compliance with the provisions of the other subpart of this part to which it is subject. If the conditions in paragraphs (f)(10)(iii)(A) through (C) of this section are not met, the flexible operation unit shall continue to be consider ed a TPPU and subject to the requirements of this subpart. (A) The product identified in (f)(10)(ii) of this section is not a thermoplastic product; and (B) The production of the product identified in (f)(10)(ii) of this section is subject to another subpa rt of this part; and (C) The owner or operator submits a notification to the Administrator of the pending change in applicability. (g) Storage vessel ownership determination
. The owner or operator shall follow the procedures specified in paragraphs (g)(1) through (g)(7) of this section to determine to which process unit a storage vessel shall be assigned. Paragraph (g)(8) of this section specifies when an owner or operator is required to redetermine to which process unit a storage vessel is assigned. (1) If a storage vessel is already subject to another subpart of 40 CFR part 63 on September 12, 1996, said storage vessel shall be assigned to the process unit subject to the other subpart.Page 21 of 388

(2) If a storage vessel is dedicated to a single process unit, the stor age vessel shall be assigned to that process unit. (3) If a storage vessel is shared among process units, then the storage vessel shall be assigned to that process unit located on the same plant site as the storage vessel that has the greatest input into o r output from the storage vessel (i.e., said process unit has the predominant use of the storage vessel). (4) If predominant use cannot be determined for a storage vessel that is shared among process units and if only one of those process units is a TPPU s ubject to this subpart, the storage vessel shall be assigned to said TPPU. (5) If predominant use cannot be determined for a storage vessel that is shared among process units and if more than one of the process units are TPPUs that have different primary
p roducts and that are subject to this subpart, then the owner or operator shall assign the storage vessel to any one of the said
TPPUs. (6) If the predominant use of a storage vessel varies from year to year, then predominant use shall be determined based o n the utilization that occurred during the year preceding September 12, 1996 or based on the expected utilization for the 5 years following September 12, 1996 for existing affected sources, whichever is more representative of the expectedPage 22 of 388

operations for sa id storage vessel, and based on the expected utilization for the first 5 years after initial start

- up for new affected sources. The determination of predominant use shall be reported in the Notification of Compliance Status, as required by §63.1335(e)(5)(v i). (7) Where a storage vessel is located at a major source that includes one or more process units which place material into, or receive materials from the storage vessel, but the storage vessel is located in a tank farm (including a marine tank farm), th e applicability of this subpart shall be determined according to the provisions in paragraphs (g)(7)(i) through (g)(7)(iv) of this section. (i) The storage vessel may only be assigned to a process unit that utilizes the storage vessel and does not have an intervening storage vessel for that product (or raw material, as appropriate). With respect to any process unit, an intervening storage vessel means a storage vessel connected by hard

- piping both to the process unit and to the storage vessel in the tank fa rm so that product or raw material entering or leaving the process unit flows into (or from) the intervening storage vessel and does not flow directly into (or from) the storage vessel in the tank farm. (ii) If there is no process unit at the major source that meets the criteria of paragraph (g)(7)(i) of this section withPage 23 of 388

respect to a storage vessel, this subpart does not apply to the storage vessel. (iii) If there is only one process unit at the major source that meets the criteria of paragraph (g)(7)(i) o f this section with respect to a storage vessel, the storage vessel shall be assigned to that process unit. (iv) If there are two or more process units at the major source that meet the criteria of paragraph (g)(7)(i) of this section with respect to a stor age vessel, the storage vessel shall be assigned to one of those process units according to the provisions of paragraphs (g)(3) through (g)(6) of this section. The predominant use shall be determined among only those process units that meet the criteria of paragraph (g)(7)(i) of this section. (8) If the storage vessel begins receiving material from (or sending material to) a process unit that was not included in the initial determination, or ceases to receive material from (or send material to) a process un it, the owner or operator shall re

- evaluate the applicability of this subpart to the storage vessel. (h) Recovery operations equipment ownership determination
. The owner or operator shall follow the procedures specified in paragraphs (h)(1) through (h)(6) of this section to determine to which process unit recovery operations equipment shall bePage 24 of 388

assigned. Paragraph (h)(7) of this section specifies when an

owner or operator is required to redetermine to which process unit the recovery operations equipment is assigned. (1) If recovery operations equipment is already subject to another subpart of 40 CFR part 63 on September 12, 1996, said recovery operations equipment shall be assigned to the process unit subject to the other subpart. (2) If recovery operations equipment is dedicated to a single process unit, the recovery operations equipment shall be assigned to that process unit. (3) If recovery operations equipment i s shared among process units, then the recovery operations equipment shall be assigned to that process unit located on the same plant site as the recovery operations equipment that has the greatest input into or output from the recovery operations equipmen t (i.e., said process unit has the predominant use of the recovery operations equipment). (4) If predominant use cannot be determined for recovery operations equipment that is shared among process units and if one of those process units is a TPPU subject t o this subpart, the recovery operations equipment shall be assigned to said
TPPU. (5) If predominant use cannot be determined for recovery operations equipment that is shared among process units and ifPage 25 of 388

more than one of the process units are TPPUs that have different primary products and that are subject to this subpart, then the owner or operator shall assign the recovery operations equipment to any one of said TPPUs. (6) If the predominant use of recovery operations equipment varies from year to year, then predominant use shall be determined based on the utilization that occurred during the year preceding September 12, 1996 or based on the expected utilization for the 5 years following September 12, 1996 for existing affected sources, whichever is the more representative of the expected operations for said recovery operations equipment, and based on the first 5 years after initial start

- up for new affected sources. The determination of predominant use shall be reported in the Notification of Compliance Statu s, as required by §63.1335(e)(5)(vii). (7) If a piece of recovery operations equipment begins receiving material from a process unit that was not included in the initial determination, or ceases to receive material from a process unit that was included in the initial determination, the owner or operator shall reevaluate the applicability of this subpart to that recovery operations equipment. (i) Changes or additions to plant sites
. The provisions of paragraphs (i)(1) through (i)(4) of this section apply to owners or operators that change or add to their plant site or affectedPage 26 of 388

source. Paragraph (i)(5) of this section provides examples of what are and are not considered process changes for purposes of this paragraph (i) of this section. Paragraph (i)(6) of thi s section discusses reporting requirements. (1) Adding a TPPU to a plant site
. The provisions of paragraphs (i)(1)(i) and (i)(1)(ii) of this section apply to owners or operators that add one or more TPPUs to a plant site.

§63.1328), the resulting emission point(s) shall be subject to the applicable requirements for an existing affected source. The resulting emission point(s) shall be in compliance by 120 days after the date of initial start

- up or by the appropriate compliance date specified in §63.1311 (i.e., February 27, 19 98 for most equipment leak components subject to §63.1331, and June 19, 2001 for most emission points other than equipment leaks), whichever is later. (iv) If any process change (not including a process change that solely replaces components) is made to an existing affected source that results in baseline emissions (i.e., emissions prior to applying controls for purposes of complying with this subpart) from continuous process vents in the collection of material recovery sections within the affected source a t an existing affected source producing PET using a continuous dimethyl terephthalate process changing from less than or equal to 0.12 kg organic HAP per Mg of product to greater than 0.12 kg organic HAP per Mg of product, the continuous process vents shal l be subject to the applicable requirements for an existing affected source. The resulting emission point(s) shall be in compliance by 120 days after the date of initial start

- up or by June 19, 2001, whichever is later. (3) Existing affected source require ments for surge control vessels and bottoms receivers that become subject to subpart HPage 31 of 388

requirements
. If a process change or addition of an emission point causes a surge control vessel or bottoms receiver to become subject to §63.170 under this paragraph (i ), the owner or operator shall be in compliance upon initial start

- up or by June 19, 2001, whichever is later. (4) Existing affected source requirements for compressors that become subject to the requirements of subpart H of this part . If a process change or the addition of an emission point causes a compressor to become subject to §63.164 under this paragraph (i), the owner or operator shall be in compliance upon initial start

- up or by the compliance date for that compressor as specified in §63.1311(d)(1) through (d)(4), whichever is later. (5) Determining what are and are not process changes
. For purposes of paragraph (i) of this section, examples of process changes include, but are not limited to, changes in feedstock type, or process catalyst type, or th e replacement, removal, or addition of recovery equipment, or equipment changes that increase production capacity. For purposes of paragraph (i) of this section, process changes do not include: Process upsets, unintentional temporary process changes, and c hanges that do not alter the equipment configuration and operating conditions. (6) Reporting requirements for owners or operators that change or add to their plant site or affected source
. Owners orPage 32 of 388

operators that change or add to their plant site or affec ted source, as discussed in paragraphs (i)(1) and (i)(2) of this section, shall submit a report as specified in §63.1335(e)(7)(iv). (j) Applicability of this subpart during periods of start

up, shutdown, malfunction, or non

- operation
. Paragraphs (j)(1)
thr ough (j)(4) of this section shall be followed during periods of start

- up, shutdown, malfunction, or non

- operation of the affected source or any part thereof. (1) The emission limitations set forth in this subpart and the emission limitations referred to in this subpart shall apply at all times except during periods of non

- operation of the affected source (or specific portion thereof) resulting in cessation of the emissions to which this subpart applies. The emission limitations of this subpart and the emiss ion limitations referred to in this subpart shall not apply during periods of start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction, except as provided in paragraphs (j)(3) and (j)(4) of this section. However, if a start

- up, shutdown, malfunction, or period of non

operation of one portion of an affected source does not affect the ability of a particular emission point to comply with the emission limitations to which it is subject, then that emission point shall still be required to comply with the applicable emission limitati ons of this subpart during the start

- up,Page 33 of 388

shutdown, malfunction, or period of non

- operation. For example, if there is an overpressure in the reactor area, a storage vessel that is part of the affected source would still be required to be controlled in accor dance with the emission limitations in §63.1314. Similarly, the degassing of a storage vessel would not affect the ability of a batch process vent to meet the emission limitations of §§63.1321 through 63.1327. (2) The emission limitations set forth in subp art H of this part, as referred to in §63.1331, shall apply at all times except during periods of non

- operation of the affected source (or specific portion thereof) in which the lines are drained and depressurized , resulting in cessation of the emissions t o which §63.1331 applies , or during periods of start

- up, shutdown, malfunction, or process unit shutdown (as defined in §63.161)
. (3) The owner or operator shall not shut down items of equipment that are required or utilized for compliance with this subpart during periods of start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction during times when emissions (or, where applicable, wastewater
streams or re siduals) are being routed to such items of equipment, if the shutdown would contravene requirements of this subpart applicable to such items of equipment . This paragraph (j)(3) does not apply if the item of equipment is malfunctioning. This paragraph also does not apply if the owner or operator shuts down the compliance equipment (other thanPage 34 of 388

monitoring systems) to avoid damage due to a contemporaneous
start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction of the affected source or portion thereof. If the owner or operator has reason to believe that monitoring equipment would be damaged due to a contemporaneous start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction of the affected source or portion thereof, the owner or operator shall provide documentation supporting such a claim in the Precomplian ce Report or in a supplement to the Precompliance Report, as provided in §63.1335(e)(3). Once approved by the Administrator in accordance with §63.1335(e)(3)(viii), the provision for ceasing to collect, during a start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction, monitori ng data that would otherwise be required by the provisions of this subpart must be incorporated into the
start

- up, shutdown, malfunction plan for that affected source, as stated in §63.1335(b)(1). (4) During start

- ups, shutdowns, and malfunctions when the emission limitations of this subpart do not apply pursuant to paragraphs (j)(1) through (j)(3) of this section, the owner or operator shall implement, to the extent reasonably available, measures to prevent or minimize excess emissions to the extent practi cal. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “excess emissions” means emissions greater than those allowed by the emissions limitation which would apply during operational periods other than start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction. ThePage 35 of 388

measures to be taken sh all be identified in the applicable
start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction plan, and may include, but are not limited to, air pollution control technologies, recovery technologies, work practices, pollution prevention, monitoring, and/or changes in the manner of operation of the affected source. Back

- up control devices are not required, but may be used if available. General duty . At all times, the owner or operator must operate and maintain any affected source, including associated air pollution control equipme nt and monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with safety and good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. The general duty to minimize emissions does not require the

owner or operator to make any further efforts to reduce emissions if levels required by the applicable standard have been achieved. Determination of whether a source is operating in compliance with operation and maintenance requirements will be based on information available to the Administrator, which may include, but is not limited to, monitoring results, review of operation and maintenance procedures, review of operation and maintenance records, and inspection of the source. (k) Affirmative defense for violation of emission standards during malfunction
. In response to an action to enforce the standards set forth in this subpart, the owner or operator may assert an affirmative defense to a claim for civil penalties forPage 36 of 388

violations of such standards that are caused by malfunction, as defined at §63.2. Appropriate penaltie s may be assessed if the owner or operator fails to meet their burden of proving all of the requirements in the affirmative defense. The affirmative defense shall not be available for claims for injunctive relief
. (1) Assertion of affirmative defense
. To e stablish the affirmative defense in any action to enforce such a standard , the owner or operator must timely meet the reporting requirements in paragraph (k)(2) of this section, and must prove by a preponderance of evidence that: (i) The violation : (A) W a s caused by a sudden, infrequent, and unavoidable failure of air pollution control equipment, process equipment, or a process to operate in a normal or usual manner ; and (B) Could not have been prevented through careful planning, proper design or better o peration and maintenance practices; and (C) Did not stem from any activity or event that could have been foreseen and avoided, or planned for; and (D) W as not part of a recurring pattern indicative of inadequate design, operation, or maintenance; and (ii) Repairs were made as expeditiously as possible when a violation occurred ; andPage 37 of 388

(iii) The frequency, amount , and duration of the violation (including any bypass) were minimized to the maximum extent practicable; and (iv) If the violation resulted from a bypa ss of control equipment or a process, then the bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury, or severe property damage; and (v) All possible steps were taken to minimize the impact of the violation on ambient air quality, the environment , and human health; and (vi) All emissions monitoring and control systems were kept in operation if at all possible, consistent with safety and good air pollution control practices; and (vii) All of the actions in response to the violation were documented by properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs; and (viii) At all times, the affected source was operated in a manner consistent with good practices for minimizing emissions; and (ix) A written root cause analysis has been prepared, the purpose of whic h is to determine, correct, and eliminate the primary causes of the malfunction and the violation resulting from the malfunction event at issue. The analysis shall also specify, using best monitoring methods and engineering judgment,Page 38 of 388

the amount of any emis sions that were the result of the malfunction. (2) Report . The owner or operator seeking to assert an affirmative defense shall submit a written report to the Administrator, with all necessary supporting documentation , that explains how it has met the requ irements set forth in paragraph (k)(1) of this section. This affirmative defense report shall be included in the first periodic compliance report, deviation report, or excess emission report otherwise required after the initial occurrence of the violation of the relevant standard (which may be the end of any applicable averaging period). If such compliance report, deviation report, or excess emission report is due less than 45 days after the initial occurrence of the violation, the affirmative defense repor t may be included in the second compliance report, deviation report, or excess emission report due after the initial occurrence of the violation of the relevant standard. §63.1311 Compliance dates and relationship of this subpart to existing applicable rul es.

also subject to monitoring, recordke eping, and reporting requirements in 40 CFR part 264 subpart AA or CC, or is subject to monitoring and recordkeeping requirements in 40 CFR part 265 subpart AA or CC and the owner or operator complies with the periodic reporting requirements under 40 CFR p art 264 subpart AA or CC that would apply to the device if the facility had final

permitted status, the owner or operator may elect to comply either with the monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirements of this subpart, or with the monitoring,

reco rdkeeping and reporting requirements in 40 CFR parts 264 and/or 265, as described in this paragraph, which shall constitute compliance with the monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirements of this subpart. The owner or operator shall identify which option has been selected in the Notification of Compliance Status required by §63.1335(e)(5). (n) Applicability of other requirements for heat exchange systems or waste management units
. Paragraphs (n)(1) and (n)(2) of this section address instances in wh ich certain requirements from other regulations also apply for the same heat exchange system(s) or waste management unit(s) that are subject to this subpart. (1) After the applicable compliance date specified in this subpart, if a heat exchange system subj ect to this subpart is also subject to a standard identified in paragraphs (n)(1)(i) orPage 49 of 388

(ii) of this section, compliance with the applicable provisions of the standard identified in paragraphs (n)(1)(i) or (ii) of this section shall constitute compliance w ith the applicable provisions of this subpart with respect to that heat exchange system. (i) Subpart F of this part. (ii) A subpart of this part which requires compliance with §63.104 (e.g., subpart U of this part). (2) After the applicable compliance date specified in this subpart, if any waste management unit subject to this subpart is also subject to a standard identified in paragraph (n)(2)(i) or (ii) of this section, compliance with the applicable provisions of the standard identified in paragraph (n)( 2)(i) or (ii) of this section shall constitute compliance with the applicable provisions of this subpart with respect to that waste management unit. (i) Subpart G of this part. (ii) A subpart of this part which requires compliance with §§63.132 through 63. 147. (o) All terms in this subpart that define a period of time for completion of required tasks (e.g., weekly, monthly, quarterly, annual), unless specified otherwise in the section or paragraph that imposes the requirement, refer to the standard calendar periods.Page 50 of 388

(1) Notwithstanding time periods specified in this subpart for completion of required tasks, such time periods may be changed by mutual agreement between the owner or operator and the Administrator, as specified in subpart A of this part (e.g.,

a period could begin on the compliance date or another date, rather than on the first day of the standard calendar period). For each time period that is changed by agreement, the revised period shall remain in effect until it is changed. A new request is no t necessary for each recurring period. (2) Where the period specified for compliance is a standard calendar period, if the initial compliance date occurs after the beginning of the period, compliance shall be required according to the schedule specified in paragraphs (o)(2)(i) or (o)(2)(ii) of this section, as appropriate.

(A) For each pressure relief device in organic HAP service, the owner or operator must equip each pressure relief device with a device(s) or use a monitoring system that is capable of: 1) identifying the pressure release; 2) recording the time and duration of each pressure release; and 3) notifying operators immediately that a pressure release is occurring. The devic e or monitoring system may be either specific to the pressure relief device itself or may be associated with the process system or piping, sufficient to indicate a pressure release to the atmosphere. Examples of these types of devices and systems include, but are not limited to, a rupture disk indicator, magnetic sensor, motion detector on the pressure relief valve stem, flow monitor, or pressure monitor.Page 226 of 388

(B) If any pressure relief device in organic HAP service releases to atmosphere as a result of a pressu re release event, the owner or operator must calculate the quantity of organic HAP released during each pressure release event and report this quantity as required in §63.1335(e)(6)(xiii). Calculations may be based on data from the pressure relief device m onitoring alone or in combination with process parameter monitoring data and process knowledge. (iv) Pressure relief devices routed to a control device , process , or drain system . If a pressure relief device in organic HAP service is designed and operated to route all pressure releases through a closed vent system to a control device , process , or drain system , the owner or operator is not required to comply with paragraphs (a)(9)(i), (ii), or (iii) (if applicable) of this section. Both the closed vent syste m and control device (if applicable) must meet the requirements of §63.172 . The drain system (if applicable) must meet the requirements of §63.136. [Reserved] (10) If specific items of equipment, comprising part of a process unit subject to this subpart, a re managed by different administrative organizations (e.g., different companies, affiliates, departments, divisions, etc.), those items of equipment may be aggregated with any TPPU within the affectedPage 227 of 388

(11) When the terms “equipment” and “equipment leak” are used in subpart H of this part, the definitions of these terms in §63.1312 shall apply for the purposes of this subpart. (12) T he phrase “the provisions of subparts F, I, or JJJ of this part” shall apply instead of the phrase “the provisions of subpart F or I of this part” throughout §§63.163 and 63.168, for the purposes of this subpart. In addition, the phrase “subparts F, I, and JJJ” shall apply instead of the phrase “subparts F and I” in §63.174(c)(2)(iii), for the purposes of this subpart. (13) An owner or operator using a flare to comply with the requirements of this section shall conduct a compliance demonstration as specifie d in §63.1333(e).

For components in vacuum service, examples of information that could doc ument this include, but are not limited to, analyses of process stream composition and process conditions, engineering calculations, or process knowledge. For components in heavy liquid service, such documentation shall include an analysis or demonstration that the process fluids do not meet the criteria of “in light liquid service” or “in gas or vapor service.” (ii) When requested by the Administrator, demonstrate that all of the components in the TPPU are either in vacuum service or in heavy liquid servic e. (2) If changes occur at a TPPU exempted under paragraph (b) of this section such that all of the components in the TPPU are no longer either in vacuum service or in heavy liquid service (e.g., by either process changes or the addition of new components) , the owner or operator of the affected source shall comply with the provisions of this section for all of the components at the TPPU. The owner or operator shall submit a report within 180 days after the process change is made or the information regarding the process change is known to the owner or operator.

(a) This section applies to owners or operators of existing affected sources who seek to comply with §63.1313(b) by using emissions averaging rath er than following the provisions of §§63.1314, 63.1315, 63.1316 through 63.1320, 63.1321, and 63.1330. (1) The following emission point limitations apply to the use of these provisions: (i) All emission points included in an emissions average shall be from the same affected source. There may be an emissions average for each affected source located at a plant site. (ii)(A) If a plant site has only one affected source for which emissions averaging is being used to demonstratePage 231 of 388

compliance, the number of emissio n points allowed in the emissions average for said affected source is limited to twenty. This number may be increased by up to five additional emission points if pollution prevention measures are used to control five or more of the emission points included in the emissions
average. (B) If a plant site has two or more affected sources for which emissions averaging is being used to demonstrate compliance, the number of emission points allowed in the emissions averages for said affected sources is limited to
t wenty. This number may be increased by up to five additional emission points if pollution prevention measures are used to control five or more of the emission points included in the emissions averages. (2) Compliance with the provisions of this section may be based on either organic HAP or TOC. (3) For the purposes of these provisions, whenever Method 18, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, is specified within the paragraphs of this section or is specified by reference through provisions outside this section, Metho d 18 or Method 25A, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, may be used. The use of Method 25A, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, shall conform with the requirements in paragraphs (a)(3)(i) and (a)(3)(ii) of this section.Page 232 of 388

(i) The organic HAP used as the calibration gas for Method 25A, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A shall be the single organic HAP representing the largest percent by volume of the emissions. (ii) The use of Method 25A, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A is acceptable if the response from the high

- level calibration gas is at least 20 times the standard deviation of the response from the zero calibration gas when the instrument is zeroed on the most sensitive scale. (b) Unless an operating permit application has been submitted, the owner or operator shall develop and submit for approval an Emissions Averaging Plan containing all of the information required in §63.1335(e)(4) for all emission points to be included in an emissions average. (c) Paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(5) of this section describe the emission points that may be used to generate emissions averaging credits if control was applied after November 15, 1990, and if sufficient information is available to determine the appropriate value of credits for the emission point. Paragraph (c)(6) of this section discusses the use of pollution prevention in generating emissions averaging credits. (1) Storage vessels, batch process vents, aggregate batch vent streams, continuous process vents subject to §63.1315, and process wastewater streams that are determined to be Group 2

e mission points. The term “continuous process vents subject toPage 233 of 388

§63.1315” includes continuous process vents subject to §63.1316 (b)(1)(iii), (b)(2)(iii), and (c)(2), which reference §63.1315. (2) Continuous process vents located in the collection of material recovery sections within the affected source at an existing affected source producing PET using a continuous dimethyl terephthalate process subject to §63.1316(b)(1)(i) where the uncontrolled organic HAP emissions from said continuous process vents are eq ual to or less than 0.12 kg organic HAP per Mg of product. These continuous process vents shall be considered Group 2 emission points for the purposes of this section. (3) Storage vessels, continuous process vents subject to §63.1315, and process wastewate r streams that are determined to be Group 1 emission points and that are controlled by a technology that the Administrator or permitting authority agrees has a higher nominal efficiency than the reference control technology. Information on the nominal effi ciencies for such technologies shall be submitted and approved as provided in paragraph (i) of this section. (4) Batch process vents and aggregate batch vent streams that are determined to be Group 1 emission points and that are controlled to a level more stringent than the applicable standard.Page 234 of 388

(5) Continuous process vents subject to §63.1316 (b)(1)(i), (b)(1)(ii), (b)(2)(i), (b)(2)(ii), or (c)(1) located in the collection of process sections within the affected source, as specified in paragraphs (c)(5)(i) through (c)(5)(ii) of this section. The continuous process vents identified in paragraphs (c)(5)(i) through (c)(5)(ii) of this section shall be considered to be Group 1 emission points for the purposes of this section. (i) Continuous process vents subject to §63.1316(b)(1)(i) located in the collection of material recovery sections within the affected source where the uncontrolled organic HAP emissions for said continuous process vents are greater than 0.12 kg organic HAP per Mg of product and said continuou s process vents are controlled to a level more stringent than the applicable
standard. (ii) Continuous process vents subject to §63.1316(b)(1)(ii), (b)(2)(i), (b)(2)(ii), or (c)(1) located in the collection of process sections within the affected source
wh ere the uncontrolled organic HAP emissions from said continuous process vents are controlled to a level more stringent than the applicable standard. (6) The percent reduction for any storage vessel, batch process vent, aggregate batch vent stream, continuo us process vent, and process wastewater stream from which emissions arePage 235 of 388

reduced by pollution prevention measures shall be determined using the procedures specified in paragraph (j) of this section. (i) For a Group 1 storage vessel, batch process vent,
aggr egate batch vent stream, continuous process vent, or process wastewater stream, the pollution prevention measure must reduce emissions more than if the applicable reference control technology or standard had been applied to the emission point instead of th e pollution prevention measure, except as provided in paragraph (c)(6)(ii) of this section. (ii) If a pollution prevention measure is used in conjunction with other controls for a Group 1 storage vessel, batch process vent, aggregate batch vent stream, con tinuous process vent, or process wastewater stream, the pollution prevention measure alone does not have to reduce emissions more than the applicable reference control technology or standard, but the combination of the pollution prevention measure and
othe r controls must reduce emissions more than if the applicable reference control technology or standard had been applied instead of the pollution prevention measure. (d) The following emission points cannot be used to generate emissions averaging credits: (1 ) Emission points already controlled on or before November 15, 1990, cannot be used to generate credits unless the level of control is increased after November 15, 1990. In thisPage 236 of 388

case, credit will be allowed only for the increase in control after November 1 5, 1990. (2) Group 1 emission points, identified in paragraph (c)(3) of this section, that are controlled by a reference control technology cannot be used to generate credits unless the reference control technology has been approved for use in a different manner and a higher nominal efficiency has been assigned according to the procedures in paragraph (i) of this section. (3) Emission points for nonoperating TPPU cannot be used to generate credits. TPPU that are shutdown cannot be used to generate credits o r debits. (4) Maintenance wastewater cannot be used to generate credits. Wastewater streams treated in biological treatment units cannot be used to generate credits. These two types of wastewater cannot be used to generate credits or debits. For the
purpos es of this section, the terms wastewater and wastewater stream are used to mean process wastewater. (5) Emission points controlled to comply with a State or Federal rule other than this subpart cannot be used to generate credits, unless the level of contro l has been increased after November 15, 1990, to a level above what is required by the other State or Federal rule. Only the control above what is required by the other State or Federal rule will be credited.Page 237 of 388

However, if an emission point has been used to generate emissions averaging credit in an approved emissions average, and the emission point is subsequently made subject to a State or Federal rule other than this subpart, the emission point may continue to generate emissions averaging credit for the pur pose of complying with the previously approved emissions average. (e) For all emission points included in an emissions average, the owner or operator shall perform the following tasks: (1) Calculate and record monthly debits for all Group 1 emission points that are controlled to a level less stringent than the reference control technology or standard for those emission points. Said Group 1 emission points are identified in paragraphs (c)(3) through (c)(5) of this section. Equations in paragraph (g) of this section shall be used to calculate debits. (2) Calculate and record monthly credits for all Group 1 and Group 2 emission points that are over

- controlled to compensate for the debits. Equations in paragraph (h) of this section shall be used to calculate credits. Emission points and controls that meet the criteria of paragraph (c) of this section may be included in the credit calculation, whereas those described in paragraph (d) of this section shall not be included.Page 238 of 388

(3) Demonstrate that annual credits cal culated according to paragraph (h) of this section are greater than or equal to debits calculated for the same annual compliance period according to paragraph (g) of this section. (i) The owner or operator may choose to include more than the required numbe r of credit

- generating emission points in an emissions average in order to increase the likelihood of being in compliance. (ii) The initial demonstration in the Emissions Averaging Plan or operating permit application that credit

- generating emission points will be capable of generating sufficient credits to offset the debits from the debit

- generating emission points shall be made under representative operating conditions. After the compliance date, actual operating data will be used for all debit and credit calculations. (4) Demonstrate that debits calculated for a quarterly (3

- month) period according to paragraph (g) of this section are not more than 1.30 times the credits for the same period calculated according to paragraph (h) of this section. Compliance for the quarter shall be determined based on the ratio of credits and debits from that quarter, with 30 percent more debits than credits allowed on a quarterly basis. (5) Record and report quarterly and annual credits and debits in the Periodic Reports as specified in §63.1335(e)(6).Page 239 of 388

Every fourth Periodic Report shall include a certification of compliance with the emissions averaging provisions as required by §63.1335(e)(6)(x)(C)( 2 ). (f) Debits and credits shall be calculated in accordance with the methods and procedures specified in paragraphs (g) and (h) of this section, respectively, and shall not include emissions during the following periods: (1) Emissions during periods of start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction, as described in the Start

- up, Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan. (2) Emissions during periods of monitoring excursions, as defined in §63.1334( d f ). For these periods, the calculation of monthly credits and debits shall be adjust ed as specified in paragraphs (f)( 1 2)(i ) through ( 3 f)(2)(iii ) of this section. ( i 1 ) No credits would be assigned to the credit

- generating emission point. ( ii 2 ) Maximum debits would be assigned to the debit

generating emission point. ( iii 3 ) The owner or ope rator may demonstrate to the Administrator that full or partial credits or debits should be assigned using the procedures in paragraph (l) of this section. (g) Debits are generated by the difference between the actual emissions from a Group 1 emission poin t that is uncontrolled or is controlled to a level less stringent than thePage 240 of 388

applicable reference control technology or standard and the emissions allowed for the Group 1 emission point. Said Group 1 emission points are identified in paragraphs (c)(3) throug h (c)(5) of this section. Debits shall be calculated as follows: (1) Source

- wide debits shall be calculated using Equation 28 of this subpart. Debits and all terms of Equation 28 of this subpart are in units of megagrams per month:

EABV iu is calculated according to paragraph (g)(7) of this section.Page 243 of 388

n = The number of emission points being included in the emissions average. (2) Emissions from continuous process vents subject to §63.1315 shall be calculated as follows: (i) For purposes of determining continuous process vent stream flow rate, organic HAP concentrations, and temperature, the sampling site shall be after the final product reco very device, if any recovery devices are present; before any control device (for continuous process vents, recovery devices shall not be considered control devices); and before discharge to the atmosphere.

(B) If there is a change in capacity utilization other than a change in monthly operating hours, or if any other change is made to the process or product recovery equipment or operation such that the previously measured values of Q and Cj are no longer representative, a new performance test shall be conducted to determine new representative values of Q and Cj. These new values shall be used to calculate debits and credits from the time of the change forward, and the new values sha ll be reported in the next Periodic Report. (iii) The following procedures and equations shall be used

( 1 ) The percent reduction shall be measured according to the procedures in §63.116 if a combustion control device is used. For a flare meeting the criteria in §63.116(a), or a boiler or process heater meeting the criteria in §63.116(b), the percent reduction shall be 98 percent. If a noncombustion control device is used, percent reduction shall be demonstrated by a performance test at the inlet and outlet of the device, or, if testing is not fea sible, by a control design evaluation and documented engineering calculations.

The sampling site for measurement of uncontrolled emissions is after the final product recovery device. However, as provided in §63.113(a)(3), a Group 1 continuous process vent may add sufficient product recovery toPage 246 of 388

raise the TRE i ndex value above 1.0 or, for Group 1 continuous process vents at an existing affected source producing MBS, above 3.7, thereby becoming a Group 2 continuous process vent. Such a continuous process vent would not be a Group 1 continuous process vent and wou ld, therefore, not be included in determining debits under this paragraph (g)(2)(iii)(B)( 2 ). ( 3 ) Procedures for calculating the percent reduction of pollution prevention measures are specified in paragraph (j) of this section.

PPj = Polymer produced, Mg/month, for the collection of process sections j withi n the affected source, as calculated according to paragraph (g)(3)(ii)(B) of this section.Page 248 of 388

(B) The amount of polymer produced, Mg per month, for the collection of process sections j within the affected source shall be determined by determining the weight o f polymer pulled from the process line(s) during a 30

- day period. The polymer produced shall be determined by direct measurement or by an alternate methodology, such as materials balance. If an alternate methodology is used, a description of the methodolog y, including all procedures, data, and assumptions shall be submitted as part of the Emissions Averaging Plan required by §63.1335(e)(4). (C) Alternatively, ECPVS jstd for continuous process vents located in the collection of process sections within the aff ected source subject to §63.1316(c)(1) may be calculated using the procedures in paragraph (g)(2)(i) and (g)(2)(ii) of this section to determine the organic HAP emissions for each individual continuous process vent, except that the sampling site shall be a fter recovery devices installed as part of normal operation; before any add

- on control devices (i.e., those required by regulation); and prior to discharge to the atmosphere. Then, individual continuous process vent emissions shall be summed and multiplied by 0.02 to determine ECPVS jstd . (4) Emissions from storage vessels shall be calculated using the procedures specified in §63.150(g)(3).Page 249 of 388

(5) Emissions from wastewater streams shall be calculated using the procedures in §63.150(g)(5).

(ii) The following procedures and equations shall be used to determine EBPV iACTUAL : (A) If the batc h process vent is not controlled by a control device or pollution prevention measure, EBPV iACTUAL = EBPV iu , where EBPV iu is calculated using the procedures in §63.1323(b). (B) If the batch process vent is controlled using a control device or a pollution pr evention measure achieving less than 90 percent reduction for the batch cycle, calculate EBPV iACTUAL using Equation 32 of this subpart, where percent reduction is for the batch cycle.

( 1 ) The percent reduction for the batch cycle shall be calculated acco rding to the procedures in §63.1325(c)(2). ( 2 ) The percent reduction for control devices shall be calculated according to the procedures in §63.1325 (c)(2)(i) through (c)(2)(iii).Page 250 of 388

(C) If the pollution prevention measure was implemented prior to September 12, 1996 records may be used to determine E B . (D) The monthly emissions after the pollution prevention measure, E pp , may be determined during a performance test or by a design evaluation and documented engineering calculations. OncePage 275 of 388

(iii) All equations, calculations, test procedures, test results, and other information used to determine the percent reduction achieved by a pollution prevention measure for each emission point shall be fully documented. (iv) The same pollution prevention measure may reduce emissions from multiple emission points. In such cases, the percent reduction in emissions for each emission point shall be calculated. (v) For the purposes of the equations in paragraphs (h)(2) through (h)(7) of this section used to calculate credits for emission points controlled more stringently than the reference control technology or standard, the nominal efficiency of a pollution prevention measure is equivalent to the percentPage 276 of 388

reduction of the pollution prevention measure. When a pollution prevention measure is used, the owner or op erator of an affected source is not required to apply to the Administrator for a nominal efficiency and is not subject to paragraph (i) of this section. (k) The owner or operator shall demonstrate that the emissions from the emission points proposed to be included in the emissions average will not result in greater hazard or, at the option of the Administrator, greater risk to human health or the environment than if the emission points were controlled according to the provisions in §§63.1314, 63.1315, 63.13 16 through 63.1320, 63.1321, and 63.1330.

(1) The owner or op erator shall notify the Administrator of monitoring excursions in the Periodic Reports as required in §63.1335(e)(6). (2) The owner or operator shall demonstrate that other types of monitoring data or engineering calculations are appropriate to establish t hat the control device for the emission point was operating in such a fashion to warrant assigning full or partial credits and debits. This demonstration shall be made to the Administrator's satisfaction, and the Administrator may establish procedures of d emonstrating compliance that are acceptable. (3) The owner or operator shall provide documentation of the excursion and the other type of monitoring data or engineering calculations to be used to demonstrate that the control device for the emission point w as operating in such a fashion to warrant assigning full or partial credits and debits. (4) The Administrator may assign full or partial credit and debits upon review of the information provided. (m) For each emission point included in an emissions
average , the owner or operator shall perform testing, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting equivalent to that required for Group 1 emission points complying with §§63.1314, 63.1315, 63.1316 through 63.1320, 63.1321, and 63.1330, as applicable.

(a) Performance test s ing shall be conducted under such conditions as the Administrator specifies to the owner or operator based on representative performance of the affected source for the period being tested and in accordance wit h §63.7(a)(1), (a)(3), (d), (e)(1), (e)(2), (e)(4), (g), and (h), with the exceptions specified in paragraphs (a)(1) through (a)(5) of this section and the additions specified in paragraphs (b) through (d) of this section. Representative conditionsPage 283 of 388

exclude periods of startup and shutdown unless specified by the Administrator or an applicable subpart. The owner or operator may not conduct performance tests during periods of malfunction. The owner or operator must record the process information that is necess ary to document operating conditions during the test and include in such record an explanation to support that such conditions represent normal operation. Upon request, the owner or operator shall make available to the Administrator such records as may be necessary to determine the conditions of performance tests. Sections 63.1314 through 63.1330 also contain specific testing requirements. (1) Performance tests shall be conducted according to the provisions of §63.7 (e)(1) and (e)(2), except that performance tests shall be conducted at maximum representative operating conditions achievable during one of the time periods described in paragraph (a)(1)(i) of this section, without causing any of the situations described in paragraph (a)(1)(ii) of this section
to occur. (i) The 6

- month period that ends 2 months before the Notification of Compliance Status is due, according to §63.1335(e)(5); or the 6

- month period that begins 3 months before the performance test and ends 3 months after the performance test.Page 284 of 388

(ii) Cau sing damage to equipment; necessitating that the owner or operator make product that does not meet an existing specification for sale to a customer; or necessitating that the owner or operator make product in excess of demand. (2) The requirements in §63.1 335(e)(5) shall apply instead of the references in §63.7(g) to the Notification of Compliance Status requirements in §63.9(h). (3) Because the site

- specific test plans in §63.7(c)(3) are not required, §63.7(h)(4)(ii) is not applicable. (4) The owner or ope rator shall notify the Administrator of the intention to conduct a performance test at least 30 days before the performance test is scheduled to allow the Administrator the opportunity to have an observer present during the test. If after 30 days notice fo r an initially scheduled performance test, there is a delay (due to operational problems, etc.) in conducting the scheduled performance test, the owner or operator of an affected facility shall notify the Administrator as soon as possible of any delay in t he original test date, either by providing at least 7 days prior notice of the rescheduled date of the performance test, or by arranging a rescheduled date with the Administrator by mutual agreement. (5) Performance tests shall be performed no later than 1 50 days after the compliance dates specified in this subpart (i.e., in time for the results to be included in the Notification ofPage 285 of 388

Compliance Status), rather than according to the time periods in §63.7(a)(2) of subpart A of this part. (b) Each owner or oper ator of an existing affected source producing MBS complying with §63.1315(b)(2) shall determine compliance with the mass emission per mass product standard by using Equation 49 of this subpart. When determining E i , when the provisions of §63.116(c)(4) spec ify that Method 18, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, shall be used, Method 18 or Method 25A, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, may be used for the purposes of this subpart. The use of Method 25A, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, shall conform with the requirements in para graphs (b)(1) and (b)(2) of this section. During periods of startup or shutdown, as an alternative to using Equation 49 of this subpart, the owner or operator may divide the emission rate of total organic
HAP or TOC during startup or shutdown by the rate o f polymer produced from the most recent performance test associated with a production rate greater than zero to comply with the emission limit.

Where:
ER MBS = Emission rate of organic HAP or TOC from continuous process vents, kg/Mg product.Page 286 of 388

E i = Emission rate of organic HAP or TOC from continuous process vent i as calculated using the procedures specified in §63.116(c)(4), kg/month.

PP M = Amount of polymer produced in one month as determined by the procedures specified in §63.1318(b)(1)(ii), Mg/month. n = Number of continuous process vents. (1) The organic HAP used as the calibration gas for Method 25A, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, shall be the single organic HAP representing the largest percent by volume. (2) The use of Method 25A, 40 CFR part 60, appendix A, is acceptable if the response from the high

- level calibration gas is at least 20 times the standard deviation of the response from the zero calibration gas when the instrument is zeroed on the most sensitive scale. (c) The owner or operator of an affected source, complying with §63.1322(a)(3) shall determine compliance with the percent reduction requirement using Equation 50 of this s ubpart.

Where: PR = Percent reduction
H j = Number of operating hours in a year for control device j.Page 287 of 388

E i = Mass rate of TOC or total organic HAP at the inlet of control device j, calculated as specified in §63.1325(f), kg/hr. This value includes all conti nuous process vents, batch process vents, and aggregate batch vent streams routed to control device j.
E o = Mass rate of TOC or total organic HAP at the outlet of control device j, calculated as specified in §63.1325(f), kg/hr.

H k = Number of hours of oper ation during which positive flow is present in uncontrolled continuous process vent or aggregate batch vent stream k, hr/yr.

E ku = Mass rate of TOC or total organic HAP of uncontrolled continuous process vent or aggregate batch vent stream k, calculated as specified in §63.1325(f)(4), kg/hr.

AE unc = Mass rate of TOC or total organic HAP of uncontrolled batch process vent l, calculated as specified in §63.1325(f)(4), kg/yr. n = Number of control devices, uncontrolled continuous process vents and aggregate ba tch vent streams, and uncontrolled batch process vents. The value of n is not necessarily the same for these three items. (d) Data shall be reduced in accordance with the EPA approved methods specified in the applicable subpart or, if other test methods ar e used, the data and methods shall bePage 288 of 388

validated according to the protocol in Method 301 of appendix A of this part. (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this subpart, if an owner or operator of an affected source uses a flare to comply with any of th e requirements of this subpart, the owner or operator shall comply with paragraphs (e)(1) through (e)(3) of this section. The owner or operator is not required to conduct a performance test to determine percent emission reduction or outlet organic HAP or T OC concentration. If a compliance demonstration has been conducted previously for a flare, using the techniques specified in paragraphs (e)(1) through (e)(3) of this section, that compliance demonstration may be used to satisfy the requirements of this par agraph if either no deliberate process changes have been made since the compliance demonstration, or the results of the compliance demonstration reliably demonstrate compliance despite process changes. (1) Conduct a visible emission test using the techniqu es specified in §63.11(b)(4); (2) Determine the net heating value of the gas being combusted, using the techniques specified in §63.11(b)(6); and (3) Determine the exit velocity using the techniques specified in either §63.11(b)(7)(i) (and §63.11(b)(7)(iii ), where applicable) or §63.11(b)(8), as appropriate.Page 289 of 388

§63.1334 Parameter monitoring levels and excursions. (a) Establishment of parameter monitoring levels
. The owner or operator of a control or recovery device that has one or more parameter monitoring lev el requirements specified under this subpart shall establish a maximum or minimum level for each measured parameter. If a performance test is required by this subpart for a control device, the owner or operator shall use the procedures in either paragraph (b) or (c) of this section to establish the parameter monitoring level(s). If a performance test is not required by this subpart for a control device, the owner or operator may use the procedures in paragraph (b), (c) or (d) of this section to establish th e parameter monitoring level(s). When using the procedures specified in paragraph (c) or (d) of this section, the owner or operator shall submit the information specified in §63.1335(e)(3)(vii) for review and approval as part of the Precompliance Report. ( 1) The owner or operator shall operate control and recovery devices such that the daily average of monitored parameters remains above the minimum established level or below the maximum established level, except as otherwise stated in this subpart. (2) As s pecified in §63.1335(e)(5), all established levels, along with their supporting documentation and the definition ofPage 290 of 388

an operating day, shall be submitted as part of the Notification of Compliance Status. (3) Nothing in this section shall be construed to all ow a monitoring parameter excursion caused by an activity that violates other applicable provisions of subpart A, F, G, or H of this part. (b) Establishment of parameter monitoring levels based exclusively on performance tests
. In cases where a performance test is required by this subpart, or the owner or operator of the affected source elects to do a performance test in accordance with the provisions of this subpart, and an owner or operator elects to establish a parameter monitoring level for a control, r ecovery, or recapture device based exclusively on parameter values measured during the performance test, the owner or operator of the affected source shall comply with the procedures in paragraphs (b)(1) through (b)(4) of this section, as applicable. (1) [ Reserved] (2) Continuous process vents
. During initial compliance testing, the appropriate parameter shall be continuously monitored during the required 1

- hour runs. The monitoring level(s) shall then be established as the average of the maximum (or minimu m) point values from the three test runs. The average of the maximum values shall be used when establishing a maximumPage 291 of 388

level, and the average of the minimum values shall be used when establishing a minimum level. (3) Batch process vents
. The monitoring leve l(s) shall be established using the procedures specified in either paragraph (b)(3)(i) or (b)(3)(ii) of this section. The procedures specified in this paragraph (b)(3) may only be used if the batch emission episodes, or portions thereof, selected to be

con trolled were tested, and monitoring data were collected, during the entire period in which emissions were vented to the control device, as specified in §63.1325(c)(1)(i). If the owner or operator chose to test only a portion of the batch emission episode, or portion thereof, selected to be controlled, the procedures in paragraph (c) of this section shall be used. (i) If more than one batch emission episode or more than one portion of a batch emission episode has been selected to be controlled, a single leve l for the batch cycle shall be calculated as follows: (A) The average monitored parameter value shall be calculated for each batch emission episode, or portion thereof, in the batch cycle selected to be controlled. The average shall
be based on all values measured during the required performance
test. (B) If the level to be established is a maximum operating parameter, the level shall be defined as the minimum of thePage 292 of 388

average parameter values of the batch emission episodes, or portions thereof, in the batch cycle selected to be controlled (i.e., identify the emission episode, or portion thereof, which requires the lowest parameter value in order to assure compliance. The average parameter value that is necessary to assure compliance for that emission episode, or portion thereof, shall be the level for all emission episodes, or portions thereof, in the batch cycle, that are selected to be controlled). (C) If the level to be established is a minimum operating parameter, the level shall be defined as the maximum of the average parameter values of the batch emission episodes, or portions thereof, in the batch cycle selected to be controlled (i.e., identify the emission episode, or portion thereof, which requires the highest parameter value in order to assure compli ance. The average parameter value that is necessary to assure compliance for that emission episode, or portion thereof, shall be the level for all emission episodes, or portions thereof, in the batch cycle, that are selected to be controlled). (D) Alternat ively, an average monitored parameter value shall be calculated for the entire batch cycle based on all values measured during each batch emission episode, or portion thereof, selected to be controlled.Page 293 of 388

(ii) Instead of establishing a single level for the b atch cycle, as described in paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this section, an owner or operator may establish separate levels for each batch emission episode, or portion thereof, selected to be controlled. Each level shall be determined as specified in paragraph (b) (3)(i)(A) of this section. (iii) The batch cycle shall be defined in the Notification of Compliance Status, as specified in §63.1335(e)(5). Said definition shall include an identification of each batch emission episode and the information required to deter mine parameter monitoring compliance for partial batch cycles (i.e., when part of a batch cycle is accomplished during two different operating days). (4) Aggregate batch vent streams
. For aggregate batch vent streams, the monitoring level shall be establis hed in accordance with paragraph (b)(2) of this section. (c) Establishment of parameter monitoring levels based on performance tests, supplemented by engineering assessments and/or manufacturer's recommendations

. In cases where a performance test is requir ed by this subpart, or the owner or operator elects to do a performance test in accordance with the provisions of this subpart, and an owner or operator elects to establish a parameter monitoring level for a control, recovery, or recapture device under thi s paragraph (c), the owner orPage 294 of 388

operator shall supplement the parameter values measured during the performance test with engineering assessments and/or manufacturer's recommendations. Performance testing is not required to be conducted over the entire range of expected parameter values. (d) Establishment of parameter monitoring based on engineering assessments and/or manufacturer's recommendations

. In cases where a performance test is not required by this subpart and an owner or operator elects to establish a parameter monitoring level for a control, recovery, or recapture device under this paragraph (d), the determination of the parameter monitoring level shall be based exclusively on engineering assessments and/or manufacturer's recommendations. (e) [Reserve d] (f) Parameter monitoring excursion definitions
. (1) With respect to storage vessels (where the applicable monitoring plan specifies continuous monitoring), continuous process vents, aggregate batch vent streams, and process wastewater streams, an

excurs ion means any of the three cases listed in paragraphs (f)(1)(i) through (f)(1)(iii) of this section. For a control or recovery device where multiple parameters are monitored, if one or more of the parameters meets the excursion criteria in paragraphs (f)(1 )(i) through (f)(1)(iii) of this section, this is considered a single excursion for the control or recoveryPage 295 of 388

. (i) When the daily average value of one or more monitored parameters is above the maximum level or below the minimum level established for the given parameters. (ii) When the period of control or recovery device operation, with th e exception noted in paragraph (f)(1)(v) of this section, is 4 hours or greater in an operating day, and monitoring data are insufficient, as defined in paragraph (f)(1)(iv) of this section, to constitute a valid hour of data for at least 75 percent of the operating hours. (iii) When the period of control or recovery device operation, with the exception noted in paragraph (f)(1)(v) of this section, is less than 4 hours in an operating day and more than two of the hours during the period of operation do not constitute a valid hour of data due to insufficient monitoring data, as defined in paragraph (f)(1)(iv) of this section. (iv) Monitoring data are insufficient to constitute a valid hour of data, as used in paragraphs (f)(1)(ii) and (f)(1)(iii) of this sect ion, if measured values are unavailable for any of the 15

- minute periods within the hour. For data compression systems approved under §63.1335(g)(3), monitoring data arePage 296 of 388

insufficient to calculate a valid hour of data if there are less than four data measur ements made during the hour. (v) The periods listed in paragraphs (f)(1)(v)(A) through (f)(1)(v) and ( E B ) of this section are not considered to be part of the period of control or recovery device operation, for the purposes of paragraphs (f)(1)(ii) and (f)(1) (iii) of this section.

(2) With respect to batch process vents, an excursion means one of the two cases listed in paragraphs (f)(2)(i) and (f)(2)(ii) of this section. For a control device where multiple parameters are monitored, if one or more of the parameters meets the excursion criteria in either paragraph (f)(2)(i) or (f)(2)(ii) of this section, this is considered a single excursion for the control device. For each excursion, the owner
or op erator shall be deemed out of compliance with thePage 297 of 388

provisions of this subpart , except as provided in paragraph (g) of this section
. (i) When the batch cycle daily average value of one or more monitored parameters is above the maximum or below the minimum

es tablished level for the given parameters. (ii) When monitoring data are insufficient for an operating day. Monitoring data shall be considered insufficient when measured values are not available for at least 75 percent of the 15

- minute periods when batch emission episodes selected to be controlled are being vented to the control device during the operating day, using the procedures specified in paragraphs (f)(2)(ii)(A) through (f)(2)(ii)(D) of this section. (A) Determine the total amount of time during the operating day when batch emission episodes selected to be controlled are being vented to the control device. (B) Subtract the time during the periods of monitoring system breakdowns, repairs, calibration checks, and zero (low

level) and high

- level adjustm ents listed in paragraphs (f)(2)(ii)(B)( 1 ) through (f)(2)(ii)(B)( 4 ) of this section from the total amount of time determined in paragraph (f)(2)(ii)(A) of this section, to obtain the operating time used to determine if monitoring data are insufficient.

- minute periods determined in paragraph (f)(2)(ii)(C) of this section, the monitoring data are insufficient for the operating day. (3) For storage vessels where the applicable monitoring plan does not specify continuous monitoring, an excursion is defined in paragraph (f)(3)(i) or (ii) of this section, as
app licable. For a control or recovery device where multiple parameters are monitored, if one or more of the parameters meets the excursion criteria, this is considered a single excursion for the control or recovery device. For each excursion, the
owner or ope rator shall be deemed out of compliance with the provisions of this subpart , except as provided in paragraph (g) of this section
. (i) If the monitoring plan specifies monitoring a parameter and recording its value at specific intervals (such as every 15 mi nutes or every hour), either of the cases listed in paragraphPage 299 of 388

(f)(3)(i)(A) or (f)(3)(i)(B) of this section is considered a single excursion for the control device. For each excursion, the owner or operator shall be deemed out of compliance with the provisi ons of this subpart , except as provided in paragraph (g) of this section
. (A) When the average value of one or more parameters, averaged over the duration of the filling period for the storage vessel, is above the maximum level or below the minimum level

e stablished for the given parameters. (B) When monitoring data are insufficient. Monitoring data shall be considered insufficient when measured values are not available for at least 75 percent of the specific intervals at which parameters are to be monitore d and recorded, according to the storage vessel's monitoring plan, during the filling period for the storage vessel. (ii) If the monitoring plan does not specify monitoring a parameter and recording its value at specific intervals (for example, if the rele vant operating requirement is to exchange a disposable carbon canister before expiration of its rated service life), the monitoring plan shall define an excursion in terms of the relevant operating requirement. (4) With respect to continuous process vents complying with the mass emissions per mass product requirements specified in §63.1316(b)(1)(i)(A), (b)(1)(ii), (b)(2)(i), (b)(2)(ii), orPage 300 of 388

(c)(1)(i), an excursion has occurred when the mass emission rate calculated as specified in §63.1318(c) exceeds the app ropriate mass emissions per mass product requirement. For each excursion, the owner or operator shall be deemed out of compliance with the provisions of this subpart , except as provided in paragraph (g) of this section
. (5) With respect to continuous proce ss vents complying with the temperature limits for final condensers specified in §63.1316(b)(1)(i)(B) or (c)(1)(ii), an excursion has occurred when the daily average exit temperature exceeds the appropriate condenser temperature limit.

(b) Requirements of subpart A of this part
. The owner or operator of an affected source shall comply with the applicable recordkeeping and reporting requirements in subpart A of thisPage 304 of 388

part as specifi ed in Table 1 of this subpart. These requirements include, but are not limited to, the requirements specified in paragraphs (b)(1) and (b)(2) of this section. (1) Start

- up, shutdown, and m M alfunction recordkeeping and reporting plan
. The owner or operator o f an affected source shall develop a written startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan as specified in §63.6(e)(3). This plan shall describe, in detail, procedures for operating and maintaining the affected source during periods of start

- up, shutdown, and ma lfunction and a program for corrective action for malfunctioning process and air pollution control equipment used to comply with this subpart. Inclusion of Group 2 emission points is not required, unless these points are included in an emissions average. F or equipment leaks (subject to §63.1331), the start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction plan requirement is limited to control devices and is optional for other equipment. For equipment leaks, the start

up, shutdown, and malfunction plan may include written
proc edures that identify conditions that justify a delay of repair. A provision for ceasing to collect, during a start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction, monitoring data that would otherwise be required by the provisions of this subpart may be included in the start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction plan only if the owner or operator has demonstrated to the Administrator, through the Precompliance Report or a supplement to the PrecompliancePage 305 of 388

Report, that the monitoring system would be damaged or destroyed if it were not s hut down during the start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction. The affected source shall keep the start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction plan on

- site. Records associated with the plan shall be kept as specified in paragraphs (b)(1)(i)(A) through (b)(1)(i)(C) of this section. Reports related to the plan shall be submitted as specified in paragraph (b)(1)(ii) of this section. (i) Records of start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction s . The owner or operator shall keep the records specified in paragraphs (b)(1)(i)(A) through (b )(1)(i) (C) of this section. (A) In the event that an affected unit fails to meet an applicable standard, record the number of failures. For each failure record the date, time , and duration of each failure. Records of the occurrence and duration of each start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction of operation of process equipment or control devices or recovery devices or continuous monitoring systems used to comply with this subpart during which excess emissions (as defined in §63.1310(j)(4)) occur
. (B) For each failure to meet an applicable standard, record and retain a list of the affected sources or equipment, an estimate of the quantity of each regulated pollutant emitted over any emission limit , and a description of the method used to estimate the emissions. F or each start

- up, shutdown, orPage 306 of 388

malfunction during which excess emissions (as defined in §63.1310(j)(4)) occur, records reflecting whether the procedures specified in the affected source's start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction plan were followed, and document ation of actions taken that are not consistent with the plan. For example, if a
start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction plan includes procedures for routing a control device to a backup control device, records shall be kept of whether the plan was followed. Th ese records may take the form of a “checklist,” or other form of recordkeeping that confirms conformance with the start

- up shutdown, and malfunction plan for the event. (C) Record actions taken to minimize emissions in accordance with §63.1310(j)(4), and a ny corrective actions taken to return the affected unit to its normal or usual manner of operation. Records specified in paragraphs (b)(1)(i)(A) through (b)(1)(i)(B) of this section are not required if they pertain solely to Group 2 emission points that are not included in an emissions average. (ii) Reports of start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction s . If a source fails to meet an applicable standard, report such events in the Periodic Report. Report the number of failures to meet an applicable standard. For each instance, report the date, time , and duration of each failure. For each failure the report must include a list of the affected sources or equipment, an estimatePage 307 of 388

of the quantity of each regulated pollutant emitted over any emission limit, and a description of the method used to estimate the emissions. For the purposes of this subpart, the semiannual
start

- up, shutdown, and malfunction reports shall be submitted on the same schedule as the Periodic Reports required under paragraph (e)(6) of this section inste ad of being submitted on the schedule specified in §63.10(d)(5)(i)

An owner or operator choosing not to implement the provisions listed in §63.1315 or §63.1317, as appropriate, for continuous process vents, §63.1321 for batch process vents and aggregate batch vent streams, or §63.1330 for process wastewater, may instead request approval to use alternative continuous monitoring and recordkeeping provisions according to the procedures specified in paragraphs (g)(1) through (g)(4) of this section. Requests shall be submitted in the Precompliance Report as specified in paragr aph (e)(3)(iv) of this section, if not already included in the operating permit application, and shall contain the information specified in paragraphs (g)(2)(ii) and (g)(3)(ii) of this section, as applicable. (1) The provisions in §63.8(f)(5)(i) shall gove rn the review and approval of requests.Page 354 of 388

(2) An owner or operator of an affected source that does not have an automated monitoring and recording system capable of measuring parameter values at least once every 15 minutes and that does not generate continuou s records may request approval to use a nonautomated system with less frequent monitoring, in accordance with paragraphs (g)(2)(i) and (g)(2)(ii) of this section. (i) The requested system shall include manual reading and recording of the value of the relev ant operating parameter no less frequently than once per hour. Daily average (or batch cycle daily average) values shall be calculated from these hourly values and recorded. (ii) The request shall contain: (A) A description of the planned monitoring and

re cordkeeping system; (B) Documentation that the affected source does not have an automated monitoring and recording system; (C) Justification for requesting an alternative monitoring and recordkeeping system; and (D) Demonstration to the Administrator's sat isfaction that the proposed monitoring frequency is sufficient to represent control or recovery device operating conditions, considering typical variability of the specific process and control or recovery device operating parameter being monitored.Page 355 of 388

(3) An owner or operator may request approval to use an automated data compression recording system that does not record monitored operating parameter values at a set frequency, but records all values that meet set criteria for variation from previously recorded values, in accordance with paragraphs (g)(3)(i) and (g)(3)(ii) of this section. (i) The requested system shall be designed to: (A) Measure the operating parameter value at least once during every 15 minute period; (B) Except for the monitoring of batch pro cess vents, calculate hourly average values each hour during periods of operation; (C) Record the date and time when monitors are turned off

or on; (D) Recognize unchanging data that may indicate the monitor is not functioning properly, alert the operator, and record the incident; (E) Calculate daily average (or batch cycle daily average) values of the monitored operating parameter based on all measured data; and (F) If the daily average is not an excursion, as defined in §63.1334(f), the data for that oper ating day may be converted to hourly average values and the four or more individual records for each hour in the operating day may be discarded.Page 356 of 388

(ii) The request shall contain: (A) A description of the monitoring system and data compression recording syste m, including the criteria used to determine which monitored values are recorded and retained; (B) The method for calculating daily averages and batch cycle daily averages; and (C) A demonstration that the system meets all criteria in paragraph (g)(3)(i) of this section. (4) An owner or operator may request approval to use other alternative monitoring systems according to the procedures specified in §63.8(f)(4). (h) Reduced recordkeeping program
. For any parameter with respect to any item of equipment, the o wner or operator may implement the recordkeeping requirements specified in paragraph (h)(1) or (h)(2) of this section as alternatives to the continuous operating parameter monitoring and recordkeeping provisions that would otherwise apply under this subpar t. The owner or operator shall retain for a period of 5 years each record required by paragraph (h)(1) or (h)(2) of this section, except as otherwise provided in paragraph (h)(1)(vi)(D) of this section. (1) The owner or operator may retain only the daily a verage (or batch cycle daily average) value, and is not required to retain more frequent monitored operating parameter values, for aPage 357 of 388

monitored parameter with respect to an item of equipment, if the requirements of paragraphs (h)(1)(i) through (h)(1)(vi) of this section are met. An owner or operator electing to comply with the requirements of paragraph (h)(1) of this section shall notify the Administrator in the Notification of Compliance Status as specified in paragraph (e)(5)(xi) of this section or, if the Notification of Compliance Status has already been submitted, in the Periodic Report immediately preceding implementation of the requirements of paragraph (h)(1) of this section as specified in paragraph (e)(6)(ix) of this section. (i) The monitoring syst em is capable of detecting unrealistic or impossible data during periods of operation other than start

- ups, shutdowns, or malfunctions (e.g., a temperature reading of −200 °C on a boiler), and will alert the operator by
alarm or other means. The owner or o perator shall record the occurrence. All instances of the alarm or other alert in an operating day constitute a single occurrence. (ii) The monitoring system generates, updated at least hourly throughout each operating day, a running average of the monitoring values that have been obtained during that operating day, and the capability to observe this running average is readily availab le to the Administrator on

- site during the operating day. The owner or operator shall record the occurrence of any period meeting the criteria in paragraphs (h)(1)(ii)(A)Page 358 of 388

through (h)(1)(ii) and ( C B ) of this section. All instances in an operating day constitute a single occurrence. (A) The running average is above the maximum or below the minimum established limits; and (B) The running average is based on at least six 1

- hour average values ; and (C) The running average reflects a period of operation oth er than a start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction
. (iii) The monitoring system is capable of detecting unchanging data during periods of operation other than start

ups, shutdowns, or malfunctions , except in circumstances where the presence of unchanging data is the expected operating condition based on past experience (e.g., pH in some scrubbers), and will alert the operator by alarm or other means. The owner or operator shall record the occurrence. All instances of the alarm or other alert in an operating day c onstitute a single

occurrence. (iv) The monitoring system will alert the owner or operator by an alarm or other means, if the running average parameter value calculated under paragraph (h)(1)(ii) of this section reaches a set point that is appropriately re lated to the established limit for the parameter that is being monitored. (v) The owner or operator shall verify the proper functioning of the monitoring system, including its ability toPage 359 of 388

comply with the requirements of paragraph (h)(1) of this section, at the times specified in paragraphs (h)(1)(v)(A) through (h)(1)(v)(C). The owner or operator shall document that the required verifications occurred. (A) Upon initial installation. (B) Annually after initial installation. (C) After any change to the programm ing or equipment constituting the monitoring system, which might reasonably be expected to alter the monitoring system's ability to comply with the requirements of this section. (vi) The owner or operator shall retain the records identified in paragraphs ( h)(1)(vi)(A) through (h)(1)(vi)(D) of this section. (A) Identification of each parameter, for each item of equipment, for which the owner or operator has elected to comply with the requirements of paragraph (h) of this section. (B) A description of the app licable monitoring system(s), and of how compliance will be achieved with each requirement of paragraphs (h)(1)(i) through (h)(1)(v) of this section. The description shall identify the location and format (e.g., on

line storage, log entries) for each requi red record. If the description changes, the owner or operator shall retain both the current and the most recent superseded description, as providedPage 360 of 388

in paragraph (a) of this section, except as provided in paragraph (h)(1)(vi)(D) of this section. (C) A descr iption, and the date, of any change to the monitoring system that would reasonably be expected to impair its ability to comply with the requirements of paragraph (h)(1) of this section. (D) Owners and operators subject to paragraph (h)(1)(vi)(B) of this se ction shall retain the current description of the monitoring system as long as the description is current. The current description shall, at all times, be retained on

- site or be accessible from a central location by computer or other means that provides ac cess within 2 hours after a request. The owner or operator shall retain all superseded descriptions for at least 5 years after the date of their creation. Superseded descriptions shall be retained on

- site (or accessible from a central location by computer or other means that provides access within 2 hours after a request) for at least 6 months after their creation. Thereafter, superseded descriptions may be stored off

- site. (2) If an owner or operator has elected to implement the requirements of paragraph ( h)(1) of this section for a monitored parameter with respect to an item of equipment and a period of 6 consecutive months has passed without an excursion as defined in paragraph (h)(2)(iv) of this section, the owner or operator isPage 361 of 388

no longer required to rec ord the daily average (or batch cycle daily average) value for any operating day when the daily average (or batch cycle daily average) value is less than the maximum or greater than the minimum established limit. With approval by the Administrator, monitor ing data generated prior to the compliance date of this subpart shall be credited toward the period of 6 consecutive months, if the parameter limit and the monitoring accomplished during the period prior to the compliance date was required and/or approved by the Administrator. (i) If the owner or operator elects not to retain the daily average (or batch cycle daily average) values, the owner or operator shall notify the Administrator in the next Periodic Report as specified in paragraph (e)(6)(x) of this se ction. The notification shall identify the parameter and unit of equipment. (ii) If, on any operating day after the owner or operator has ceased recording daily average (or batch cycle daily average) values as provided in paragraph (h)(2) of this section, there is an excursion as defined in paragraph (h)(2)(iv) of this section, the owner or operator shall immediately resume retaining the daily average (or batch cycle daily average) value for each operating day and shall notify the Administrator in the
next Periodic Report. The owner or operator shall continue to retain each daily average (or batch cycle daily average) valuePage 362 of 388

until another period of 6 consecutive months has passed without an excursion as defined in paragraph (h)(2)(iv) of this section. (iii) T he owner or operator shall retain the records specified in paragraphs (h)(1)(i) through (h)(1) (iii) of this section, for the duration specified in this paragraph (h) of this section . For any calendar week, if compliance with paragraphs (h)(1)(i) through (h)(1) (iv) of this section does not result in retention of a record of at least one occurrence or measured parameter value, the owner or operator shall record and retain at least one parameter value during a period of operation other than a start

- up, shutd own, or malfunction
. (iv) For purposes of this paragraph (h) of this section , an excursion means that the daily average (or batch cycle daily average) value of monitoring data for a parameter is greater than the maximum, or less than the minimum establishe d value , except as provided in paragraphs (h)(2)(iv)(A) and (h)(2)(iv)(B) of this section
. (A) The daily average or (batch cycle daily average) value during any startup, shutdown, or malfunction shall not be considered an excursion for purposes of paragrap h (h)(2) of this section, if the owner or operator follows the applicable provisions of §63.6(e)(1).Page 363 of 388

(B) An excused excursion, as described in §63.1334(g), shall not be considered an excursion for purposes of paragraph (h)(2) of this section. §63.1336 Impl ementation and enforcement.
