(a) Applicability
. The provisions of this subpart apply to the owner or operator of processes that produce amino/phenolic resins and that are located at a plant site that i s a major source as defined in §63.2. (b) Affected source
. The affected source is: (1) The total of all amino/phenolic resin process units (APPU); (2) The associated heat exchange systems; (3) Equipment required by, or utilized as a method of compliance wi th, this subpart which may include control devices and recovery devices; (4) Equipment that does not contain organic hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) and is located within an APPU that is part of an affected source; (5) Vessels and equipment storing and/or handling material that contain no organic HAP and/or organic HAP as impurities only; (6) Equipment that is intended to operate in organic HAP service for less than 300 hours during the calendar year; (7) Each waste management unit; and (8) Maintenance wast ewater. (c) Existing affected source
. The affected source to which the existing source provisions of this subpart apply is defined in paragraph (b) of this section.Page 3 of 220

(d) New affected source
. The affected source to which the new source provisions of this subpart apply is: (1) Each affected source defined in paragraph (b) of this section that commences construction or reconstruction after December 14, 1998; (2) Each additional group of one or more APPU and associated heat exchange systems that has the potential to emit 10 tons per year or more of any organic HAP or 25 tons per year or more of any combination of organic HAP that commences construction after December 14, 1998; or (3) Each group of one or more process units and associated heat exchange sys tems that are converted to APPUs after December 14, 1998, that has the potential to emit 10 tons per year or more of any organic HAP or 25 tons per year or more of any combination of organic HAP. (e) APPUs without organic HAP
. An APPU that is part of an af fected source, as defined in paragraph (c) or (d) of this section, but that does not use or manufacture any organic HAP, 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. Whe n requested by the Administrator, the owner or operator shall demonstrate that the APPU does not use or manufacture any organic HAP. Types of information that could document this determination include, but are not limited to, records ofPage 4 of 220

chemicals purchased for the process, analyses of process stream composition, engineering calculations, or process knowledge. (f) Exemption from equipment leak provisions
. Affected sources with actual annual production of amino/phenolic resin equal to or less than 800 megagra ms per year (Mg/yr) for the 12

- month period preceding December 14, 1998 are exempt from the equipment leak provisions specified in §63.1410. The owner or operator utilizing this exemption shall recheck the actual annual production of amino/phenolic resins for each 12

- month period following December 14, 1998. The beginning of each 12

- month period shall be the anniversary of December 14, 1998. If the actual annual production of amino/phenolic resins is greater than 800 Mg/yr for any 12

- month period, the owner or operator shall comply with §63.1410 for the life of the affected source or until the affected source is no longer subject to the provisions of this subpart. (g) Primary product determination and applicability
. For purposes of this paragraph, amino resi ns and phenolic resins shall be considered to be the same product and production time or production mass of amino and phenolic resins shall be combined for purposes of determining the primary product under this paragraph (g). If the owner or operator deter mines that a process unit is not an APPU under paragraphs (g)(1) through (4) of this section, the owner or operator shall, when requested byPage 5 of 220

the Administrator, demonstrate that the process unit is not an
APPU. (1) Applicability determinations for process u nits producing multiple products
. A process unit that produces more than one intended product at the same time is an APPU if amino/phenolic resin production accounts for the greatest percent of the annual design capacity on a mass basis. If a process unit has the same annual design capacity on a mass basis for two or more products, the process unit shall be an APPU if amino/phenolic resins are one of those products. (2) Flexible operations process unit determination based on operating time
. A flexible opera tions process unit is an APPU if amino/phenolic resins will be produced for the greatest operating time over the 5 years following December 14, 1998 at existing process units, or for the first year after the process unit begins production of any product fo r new process units. (3) Flexible operations process unit determination based on mass production basis
. A flexible operations process unit that will manufacture multiple products equally based on operating time is an APPU if amino/phenolic resins account f or the greatest percentage of the expected production on a mass basis over the 5 years following December 14, 1998 at existing process units, or for the first year after the process unit begins production of any product for new process units.Page 6 of 220

(4) Flexible operations process unit default determination
. If the owner or operator cannot determine whether or not amino/phenolic resins are the primary product of a flexible operations process unit in accordance with paragraphs (g)(2) and (3) of this section, the fl exible operations process unit shall be designated as an APPU if amino/phenolic resins were produced for 5 percent or greater of the total operating time since December 14, 1998 for existing process units. The flexible operations process unit shall be desi gnated as an APPU if the owner or operator anticipates that amino/phenolic resins will be manufactured in the flexible operations process unit at any time in the first year after the date the unit begins production of any product for new process units. (5) Annual applicability determination for non

- APPUs that have produced amino/phenolic resins
. Once per year beginning December 14, 2003, the owner or operator of each flexible operations process unit that is not designated as an APPU, but that has produced a mino/phenolic resins 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 an evaluation to determine whether the process unit has become an APPU. A flexible operatio ns process unit has become an APPU if amino/phenolic resins were produced for the greatest operating time over the preceding 5

- year period or since thePage 7 of 220

date that the process unit began production of any product, whichever is shorter. (6) Applicability dete rmination for non

- APPUs that have not produced amino/phenolic resins
. The owner or operator that anticipates the production of amino/phenolic resins in a process unit that is not designated as an APPU, and in which no amino/phenolic resins have been produc ed in the previous 5

- year period or since the date that the process unit began production of any product, whichever is shorter, shall determine if the process unit will become an APPU. The owner or operator shall use the procedures in paragraphs (g)(1) thr ough (4) of this section to determine if the process unit is designated as an APPU, with the following exception: for existing process units, production shall be projected for the 5 years following the date that the owner or operator anticipates initiating the production of amino/phenolic resins, instead of the 5 years following December 14, 1998. (7) Redetermination of applicability to APPU that are flexible operations process units
. Whenever changes in production occur that could reasonably be expected to cause a flexible operations process unit to no longer be an APPU (i.e., amino/phenolic resins will no longer be the primary product according to the determination procedures in paragraphs (g)(2) through (4) of this section), the owner or operator shallPage 8 of 220

re evaluate the status of the process unit as an APPU. A flexible operations process unit has ceased to be an APPU subject to this subpart if the following criteria are met: (i) If amino/phenolic resins were not produced for the greatest operating time over t he preceding 5

- year period or since the date that the process unit began production of any product, whichever is shorter; (ii) If the new primary product, which is not amino/phenolic resins, is subject to another subpart of this part; and (iii) If the owne r or operator has notified the Administrator of the pending change in status for the flexible operations process unit, as specified in §63.1417(h)(4). (8) APPU terminating production of all amino/phenolic resins
. If an APPU terminates the production of all amino/phenolic resins and does not anticipate the production of any amino/phenolic resins in the future, the process unit is no longer an APPU and is not subject to this subpart after notification is made to the Administrator, as specified in §63.1417(h)( 4). (h) Storage vessel applicability determination
. The owner or operator of a storage vessel at a new affected source shall determine assignment to a process unit as follows:Page 9 of 220

(1) If a storage vessel is already subject to another subpart of part 63 on January 20, 2000, said storage vessel shall continue to be assigned to the process unit subject to the other subpart. (2) If a storage vessel is dedicated to a single process unit, the storage 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 or output from the storage vessel (i.e., said process unit has the p redominant use of the storage vessel). (4) If predominant use cannot be determined for a storage vessel that is shared among process units, and if one or more of those process units is an APPU subject to this subpart, the storage vessel shall be assigned t o any of the APPUs. (5) [Reserved] (6) If the predominant use of a storage vessel varies from year to year, then predominant use shall be determined based on the use as follows: (i) For existing affected sources, use shall be determined based on the follow ing: (A) The year preceding January 20, 2000; orPage 10 of 22 0

(B) The expected use for the 5 years following January 20, 2000. (ii) For new affected sources, use shall be determined based on the first 5 years after initial start

- up. (7) Where the storage vessel is loca ted in a tank farm (including a marine tank farm), the assignment of the storage vessel shall be determined according to paragraphs (h)(7)(i) and (ii) of this section. Only those storage vessels where a portion or all of the input into or output from the s torage vessel is hardpiped directly to one or more process units are covered by this paragraph. (i) The storage vessel is assigned to a process unit if the product or raw material entering or leaving the process unit flows directly into (or from) the storage vessel in the tank farm without passing through any intervening storage vessel. An intervening storage vessel means a storage vessel connected by hardpiping both to the process unit and to the storage vessel in the tank farm. (ii) If there are two or more process units that meet the criteria of paragraph (h)(7)(i) of this section with respect to a storage vessel, the storage vessel shall be assigned to one of those process units according to the provisions of paragraphs (h)(3) through (6) of this se ction.Page 11 of 220

(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 unit, the owner or operator shall reevaluate the applicability of this subpart to the storage vessel according to the procedures in paragraphs (h)(3) through (7) of this section. (i) Applicability of other subparts to this subpart
. Paragraphs (i)(1) through (5) describe the applicability of other subparts to this subpart. (1) After the compliance dates specified in this section, a storage vessel that is assigned to an affected source subject to this subpart that is also subject to and complying with the provisions of 40 CFR part 60, subpar t Kb, shall continue to comply with 40 CFR part 60, subpart Kb. After the compliance dates specified in this section, a storage vessel that is assigned to an affected source subject to this subpart that is also subject to the provisions of 40 CFR part 60, subpart Kb, but the owner or operator has not been required to apply controls as part of complying with 40 CFR part 60, subpart Kb, is required to comply only with the provisions of this subpart. After the compliance dates specified in this section, said

s torage vessel shall no longer be subject to 40 CFR part 60, subpart Kb.Page 12 of 220

(2) Affected sources subject to this subpart that are also subject to the provisions of subpart Q of this part shall comply with both subparts. (3) After the compliance dates specified in this section, an affected source subject to this subpart that is also subject to the provisions of 40 CFR part 60, subpart VV, or the provisions of subpart H of this part, is required to comply only with the provisions of this subpart. After the compli ance dates specified in this section, said source shall no longer be subject to 40 CFR part 60, subpart VV, or subpart H of this part, as appropriate. (4) After the applicable compliance date specified in this subpart, if a heat exchange system subject to this subpart is also subject to a standard identified in paragraph (i)(4)(i) or (ii) of this section, compliance with the applicable provisions of the standard identified in paragraph (i)(4)(i) or (ii) of this section shall constitute compliance with the a pplicable provisions of this subpart with respect to that heat exchange system. (i) Subpart F of this part. (ii) A subpart of this part that requires compliance with §63.104 (e.g., subpart U of this part). (5) After the compliance dates specified in this s ubpart, if any combustion device, recovery device or recapture devicePage 13 of 220

subject to this subpart is also subject to monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements in 40 CFR part 264, subparts AA, BB, or CC, or is subject to monitoring and recordkeeping requirements in 40 CFR part 265, subparts AA, BB, or CC, and the owner or operator complies with the periodic reporting requirements under 40 CFR part 264, subparts AA, BB, 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, recordkeeping 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. If the owner or operator elects to comply with the monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements in 40 CFR parts 264 and/or 265, the o wner or operator shall report all information required by §63.1417(f), Periodic Reports, as part of complying with the requirements of 40 CFR parts 264 and/or 265. (j) Applicability of general provisions
. Table 1 of this subpart specifies the provisions of subpart A of this part that apply and do not apply to owners and operators of affected sources subject to this subpart.Page 14 of 220

(k) Applicability of this subpart during periods of start

up, shutdown, malfunction, or non

- operation
. Paragraphs (k)(1) through (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 emission limitation s referred to in this subpart shall not apply during periods of start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction. 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 e mission 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 limitations of this subpart during the start

- up, shutdown, malfunction, or period of non

- o peration. 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 accordance with §63.1404.Page 15 of 220

(2) The emission limitations set forth in 40 CFR part 63, sub part UU, as referred to in §63.1410, 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 to which §63. 1410 applies , or during periods of start

- up, shutdown, malfuncton, or process unit shutdown
. (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, shutdow n, or malfunction; or during times when emissions 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 does not apply if the item of equipment is mal functioning. This paragraph also does not apply if the owner or operator shuts down the compliance equipment (other than monitoring systems) to avoid damage due to a contemporaneous start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction of the affected source or portion there of. 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 supportin g such a claim in the Precompliance Report as provided in §63.1417(d)(9) or in a supplement to the PrecompliancePage 16 of 220

Report. Once approved by the Administrator in accordance with §63.1417(d)(9), the 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 shall be incorporated into the start

- up, shutdown, malfunction plan for the affected source, as stated in paragraph (k) of this section. (4) During start

- u ps, shutdowns, and malfunctions when the emission limitations of this subpart do not apply pursuant to paragraphs (k)(1) through (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 practical. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “excess emissions” means emissions in excess of those that would have occurred if there were no start

- up, shutdown, or malfunction and the owner or operator complied with t he relevant provisions of this subpart. The measures to be taken shall 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 practi ces, 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. (4) General duty . At all times, the owner or operator must operate and maintain any affected source, including associatedPage 17 of 220

air pollution control equipment and monitoring equipment, in a manner consistent with safety and good air pollution control practices for minimizing e missions. 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 comp liance 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 maintenanc e records, and inspection of the source. §63.1401 Compliance schedule. (a) New affected sources that commence construction or reconstruction after December 14, 1998, shall be in compliance with this subpart upon initial start

- up or January 20, 2000, whiche ver is later (except § 63.1411(c)) upon initial start

- up or January 20, 2000, whichever is later. New affected sources that commenced construction or reconstruction after December 14, 1998, but on or before January 9, 2014 , shall be in compliance with the p ressure relief device monitoring requirements of § 63.1411(c) by [ INSERT DATE 3 YEARS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER] . New affected sources that commence construction or reconstruction after January 9, 2014 , shall bePage 18 of 220

in compliance with t he pressure relief device monitoring requirements of § 63.1411(c) upon initial startup or by [ INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]
. (b) Existing affected sources shall be in compliance with this subpart (except §§ 63.1404, 63.1405, and 63.1411(c)) no later than 3 years after January 20, 2000. Existing affected sources shall be in compliance with the storage vessel requirements of § 63.1404, the continuous process vent requirements of § 63.1405 , and the pr essure relief device monitoring requirements of § 63.1411(c) by [ INSERT DATE 3 YEARS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]
. (c) If an affected source using the exemption provided in §63.1400(f) has an actual annual production of amino/phenolic resins exceeding 800 Mg/yr for any 12

- month period, the owner or operator shall comply with the provisions of §63.1410 for the affected source within 3 years. The starting point for the 3

- year compliance time period shall be the end of the 12

- month period in which actual annual production for amino/phenolic resins exceeds 800 Mg/yr. (d) Pursuant to section 112(i)(3)(B) of the Clean Air Act, an owner or operator may request an extension allowing the existing affected source up to 1 additional year to comply with section 112(d) standards. For purposes of this subpart, a request for an extension shall be submitted to the permittingPage 19 of 220

authority as part of the operating permit application or to the Administrator as a separate submittal or as part of the Precomplia nce Report. (1) Requests for extensions shall be submitted no later than 120 days prior to the compliance dates specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section and shall include the data described in §63.6(i)(6)(i)(A), (B), and (D). The dates specified in §63.6(i) for submittal of requests for extensions shall not apply to this subpart. (2) An owner or operator may submit a compliance extension request less than 120 days prior to the compliance dates specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section p rovided that the need for the compliance extension arose after that date, and the need arose due to circumstances beyond reasonable control of the owner or operator. This request shall include, in addition to the information specified in §63.6(i)(6)(i)(A), (B), and (D), a statement of the reasons additional time is needed and the date when the owner or operator first learned of the circumstances necessitating a request for compliance extension. (e) 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, refer to the standard calendar periods.Page 20 of 220

(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).
Fo r each time period that is changed by agreement, the revised period shall remain in effect until it is changed. A new request is not necessary for each recurring period. (2) Where the period specified for compliance is a standard calendar period, if the in itial compliance date occurs after the beginning of the period, compliance shall be required according to the schedule specified in paragraph (e)(2)(i) or (ii) of this section, as appropriate: (i) Compliance shall be required before the end of the standard calendar period within which the compliance deadline occurs, if there remain at least 3 days for tasks that must be performed weekly, at least 2 weeks for tasks that must be performed monthly, at least 1 month for tasks that must be performed each quarter , or at least 3 months for tasks that must be performed annually; or (ii) In all other cases, compliance shall be required before the end of the first full standard calendar period after the period within which the initial compliance deadline occurs.Page 21 of 220

(3) I n all instances where a provision of this subpart requires completion of a task during each of multiple successive periods, an owner or operator may perform the required task at any time during the specified period, provided that the task is conducted at a reasonable interval after completion of the task during the previous period. §63.1402 Definitions.

Aggregate batch vent stream means a process vent containing emissions from at least one reactor batch process vent and at least one additional reactor or non

- reactor batch process vent where the emissions are ducted, hardpiped, or otherwise connected together for a continuous flow. Amino resin means a thermoset resin produced through the reaction of formaldehyde, or a formaldehyde cont aining solution (e.g., aqueous formaldehyde), with compound(s) that contain the amino group; these compounds include melamine, urea, and urea derivatives. Formaldehyde substitutes are exclusively aldehydes. Amino/phenolic resin means one or both of the fol lowing: (1) Amino resin; or (2) Phenolic resin.Page 25 of 220

Amino/phenolic resin
. P p rocess unit (APPU) means a collection of equipment assembled and connected by hardpiping or ductwork used to process raw materials and to manufacture an amino/phenolic resin as its pri mary product. This collection of equipment includes unit operations; process vents; storage vessels, as determined in §63.1400(h); and the equipment that is subject to the equipment leak provisions as specified in §63.1410. Utilities, lines and equipment n ot containing process fluids, and other non

- process lines, such as heating and cooling systems which do not combine their materials with those in the processes they serve, are not part of the amino/phenolic resin process unit. An amino/phenolic resin proce ss unit consists of more than one unit operation. Batch cycle means the operational step or steps, from start to finish, that occur as part of a batch unit operation. Batch emission episode means a discrete emission venting episode associated with a single batch unit operation. Multiple batch emission episodes may occur from a single batch unit operation. Batch mode means the discontinuous bulk movement of material through a unit operation. Mass, temperature, concentration, and other properties may vary with time. For a unit operation operated in a batch mode (i.e., batch unitPage 26 of 220

operation), the addition of material and withdrawal of material do not typically occur simultaneously. Batch process vent means a process vent from a batch unit operation within an affected source. Batch process vents are either reactor batch process vents or non

- reactor batch process
vents.
Batc h unit operation means a unit operation operated in a batch mode. Block means the time period that comprises a single batch cycle. Combustion device burner means a device designed to mix and ignite fuel and air to provide a flame to heat and oxidize waste organic vapors in a combustion device. Continuous mode means the continuous movement of material through a unit operation. Mass, temperature, concentration, and other properties typically approach steady

- state conditions. For a unit operation operated in a continuous mode (i.e., continuous unit operation), the simultaneous addition of raw material and withdrawal of product is typical.

- up does not include subsequent start

- ups of affected sources or portions thereof following ma lfunctions or process unit shutdowns. Inprocess recycling means a recycling operation in which recovered material is used by a unit operation within the same affected source. It is not necessary for recovered material to be used by the unit operation from which they were recovered. Maintenance wastewater means wastewater generated by the draining of process fluid from components in the APPU into an individual drain system prior to or during maintenance activities. Maintenance wastewater can be generated dur ing planned and unplanned shutdowns and during periods not associated with a shutdown. Examples of activities that can generate maintenance wastewaters include descaling of heat exchanger tubing bundles, cleaning of distillation column traps, draining of l ow legs and high point bleeds, draining of pumps into an individual drain system, and draining of portions of the APPU for repair. The generation of wastewater from the routine rinsing or washing of equipment in batch operation betweenPage 31 of 220

batches is not maint enance wastewater for the purposes of this subpart. Malfunction means any sudden, infrequent, and not reasonably preventable failure of air pollution control equipment or process equipment, or failure of a process to operate in a normal or usual manner, or opening of a safety device which causes, or has the potential to cause, the emission limitations in an applicable standard to be exceeded.

For the purposes of this subpart, a safety device is not used for routine venting of gases or vapors from t he vapor headspace underneath a cover such as during filling of the unit or to adjust the pressure in thisPage 38 of 220

vapor headspace in response to normal daily diurnal ambient temperature fluctuations. A safety device is designed to remain in a closed position duri ng normal operations and open only when the internal pressure, or another relevant parameter, exceeds the device threshold setting applicable to the air emission control equipment as determined by the owner or operator based on manufacturer recommendations , applicable regulations, fire protection and prevention codes, standard engineering codes and practices, or other requirements for the safe handling of flammable, combustible, explosive, reactive, or hazardous materials.

Uncontrolled organic HAP emissions means the organic HAP emitted from a unit operation prior to introduction of the emission stream into a control device. Uncontrolled HAPPage 41 of 220

emis sions are determined after any condenser that is operating as a process condenser. If an emission stream is not routed to a control device, uncontrolled organic HAP emissions are those organic HAP emissions released to the atmosphere.
Vent stream , as used in reference to batch process vents, aggregate batch vent streams, continuous process vents, and storage vessels, means the emissions from that emission point.

this section. The plan shall include the information specified in paragraphs (c)(1)(i) and (ii) of this section. (i) A description of the parameter or condition to be monitored and an explanation of how the selected parameter or condition will reliably indicate the presence of a leak. (ii) The parameter level(s) or conditions(s) that constitute a leak. This shall be documented by data or calculations showing that the selected levels or conditions will reliably identify leaks. The monitoring must be sufficiently sensitive to determine the range of parameter levels or conditions when the system is not leaking.

The superseded plan 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 its creation. (d) If a leak is detected according to the criteria of paragraph (b) or (c) of this section, the owner or operator shall comply with the requirements in paragraphs (d)(1) and (2) of this section, except as provided in paragraph (e) of this section.

within 7 calendar days of the repair or startup, whichever is later. (e) Delay of repair of heat exchange syste ms for which leaks have been detected is allowed if the equipment is isolated from the process. Delay of repair is also allowed if repair is technically infeasible without a shutdown and any one of the conditions in paragraph (e)(1) or (2) of this section are met. All time periods in paragraphs (e)(1) and (2) of this section shall be determined from the date when the owner or operator determines that delay of repair is necessary. (1) If a shutdown is expected within the next 2 months, a special shutdown bef ore that planned shutdown is not required. (2) If a shutdown is not expected within the next 2 months, the owner or operator may delay repair as provided in paragraph (e)(2)(i) or (ii) of this section. Documentation of a decision to delay repair shall stat e the reasons repair was delayed and shall specify a schedule for completing the repair as soon as practical. (i) If a shutdown for repair would cause greater emissions than the potential emissions from delaying repair, the owner or operator may delay repa ir until the next shutdown of the process equipment associated with the leaking heat exchanger. The owner or operator shall document the basis for the determination that a shutdown for repair would cause greater emissions than thePage 66 of 220

emissions likely to resul t from delaying repair as specified in paragraphs (e)(2)(i)(A) and (B) of this section. (A) The owner or operator shall calculate the potential emissions from the leaking heat exchanger by multiplying the concentration of total HAP listed in column A of Ta ble 2 of this subpart in the cooling water from the leaking heat exchanger by the flowrate of the cooling water from the leaking heat exchanger by the expected duration of the delay. The owner or operator may calculate potential emissions using total organ ic carbon concentration instead of total HAP listed in column A of Table 2 of this subpart. (B) The owner or operator shall determine emissions from purging and depressurizing the equipment that will result from the unscheduled shutdown for the repair.

(i) Establishment of parameter monitoring levels based on performance tests

— (A) Emission points other than batch process
vents . During initial compliance testing, the appropriate parameter shall be continuously monitored during the req uired 1

- hour test runs. The monitoring level(s) shall then be established as the average of the maximum (or minimum) point values from the three test runs. The average of the maximum values shall be used when establishing a maximum level, and the
average o f the minimum values shall be used when establishing a minimum level. (B) Aggregate batch vent streams
. For aggregate batch vent streams the monitoring level shall be established in accordance with paragraph (a)(4)(i)(A) of this section. (C) Batch process vents .

( 1 ) If more than one batch emission episode or more than one portion of a batch emission episode has been selected to bePage 89 of 220

controlled, a single level for the batch cycle shall be calculated as follows: ( i ) During initial compliance testing, the appropriate parameter shall be monitored continuously and recorded once every 15 minu tes at all times when batch emission episodes, or portions thereof, selected to be controlled are vented to the control device. A minimum of three recorded values shall be obtained for each batch emission episode, or portion thereof, regardless of the leng th of time emissions are occurring. ( ii ) 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. ( iii ) If the level to be established is a maximum operating parameter, the level shall be defined as the minimum of the average parameter values from each batch emission episode, or portion thereof, in the batch cycle selecte d to be controlled (i.e., identify the batch 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 batch emission episode, or portion thereof, shall be the level for all batch emission episodes, orPage 90 of 220

portions thereof, in the batch cycle that are selected to be controlled). ( iv ) If the level to be established is a minimum operating parameter, the level shall be defined as the max imum of the average parameter values from each batch emission episode, or portion thereof, in the batch cycle selected to be controlled (i.e., identify the batch emission episode, or portion thereof, which requires the highest parameter value in order to a ssure compliance; the average parameter value that is necessary to assure compliance for that batch emission episode, or portion thereof, shall be the level for all batch emission episodes, or portions thereof, in the batch cycle that are selected to be

co ntrolled). ( v ) Alternatively, an average monitored parameter value shall be calculated for the entire batch cycle based on all values recorded during each batch emission episode, or portion thereof, selected to be controlled. ( 2 ) Instead of establishing a single level for the batch cycle, as described in paragraph (a)(4)(i)(C)( 1 ) 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 a s specified in paragraphs (a)(4)(i)(C)( 1 )( i ) through ( v ) of this section.Page 91 of 220

( 3 ) The batch cycle shall be defined in the Notification of Compliance Status, as specified in §63.1417(e)(2). Said definition shall include an identification of each batch emission episode. The definition of batch cycle shall also include the information required to determine parameter monitoring compliance for partial batch cycles (i.e., when part of a batch cycle is accomplished during 2 different operating days) for those paramete rs averaged on a batch cycle daily average basis. (ii) Establishment of parameter monitoring levels based on performance tests, engineering assessments, and/or manufacturer's recommendations
. Parameter monitoring levels may be established based on the para meter values measured during the performance test supplemented by engineering assessments and/or manufacturer's recommendations.

— (1) Compliance with percent reduction standards
. Owners or operators opting to comply with the percent reduction standards specified in §63.1406(a)(1)(ii) and (a)(2)(ii) or §63.1407(a)(2)(ii) and (a)(3)(ii) shall select portions of the batch process vent emissions (i.e., select batch emission episodes or portions of batch e mission episodes) to be controlled such that the specified percent reduction is achieved for the batch cycle. Paragraphs (e)(1)(i) and (ii) of this section specify how the performance of a control device or control technology is to be determined. Paragraph (e)(1)(iii) of this section specifies how to demonstrate that the required percent emission reduction is achieved for the batch cycle. (i) Design evaluation
. The design evaluation shall comply with the provisions in paragraph (a)(3) of this section. The d esign evaluation shall include the value(s) and basis for thePage 95 of 220

parameter monitoring level(s) required by §63.1415. The design evaluation shall determine either of the following: (A) Each batch emission episode
. The control device efficiency for each batch e mission episode that the owner or operator selects to control. (B) One or more representative batch emission episodes
. The control device efficiency for one or more batch emission episodes provided that the owner or operator demonstrates that the control d evice achieves the same or higher efficiency for all other batch emission episodes that the owner or operator selects to control. (ii) Performance test
. An owner or operator shall conduct performance tests following the procedures in paragraph (e)(1)(ii)(A) of this section, the procedures in paragraph (e)(1)(ii)(B) of this section, or a combination of the two procedures. Under paragraph (e)(1)(ii)(A) of th is section, a performance test is conducted for each batch emission episode selected for control. Under paragraph (e)(1)(ii)(B) of this section, an owner or operator groups together several batch emission episodes and conducts a single performance test for the batch emission episode that is the most challenging, in terms of achieving emission reductions, for the control device or control technology; thereby demonstrating that the achieved emission reduction for the tested batch emission episode is the minim umPage 96 of 220

control device or control technology performance expected for each batch emission episode in the group. An owner or operator may use the concept provided by paragraph (e)(1)(ii)(B) of this section for several different groups of batch emission episodes. (A) Testing each batch emission episode
. A performance test shall be performed for each batch emission episode, or portion thereof, that the owner or operator selects to control. Performance tests shall be conducted using the testing procedures specified in §63.1414(a) and (b) and the following procedures: ( 1 ) Only one test (i.e., only one run) is required for each batch emission episode selected by the owner or operator for control. ( 2 ) Except as specified in paragraph (e)(1)(ii)(A)(3) of this section, th e performance test shall be conducted over the entire period of emissions selected by the owner or operator for control. ( 3 ) An owner or operator may choose to test only those periods of the batch emission episode during which the emission rate for the ent ire batch emission episode can be determined or during which the organic HAP emissions are greater than the average emission rate of the batch emission episode. The owner or operator choosing either of these options shall develop an emission profile illust rating the emission rate (kilogram perPage 97 of 220

unit time) over the entire batch emission episode, based on either process knowledge or test data, to demonstrate that test periods are representative. Examples of information that could constitute process knowledge i nclude calculations based on material balances and process stoichiometry. Previous test results may be used to develop the emission profile provided the results are still relevant to the current batch process vent conditions. The emission profile shall be included in the site

specific test plan required by §63.1417(h)(2). ( 4 ) When choosing sampling sites using the methods specified in §63.1414(a)(1), inlet sampling sites shall be located as specified in paragraphs (e)(1)(ii)(A)( 4 )( i ) and ( ii ) of this sectio n. Outlet sampling sites shall be located at the outlet of the control device prior to release to the atmosphere. ( i ) The control device inlet sampling site shall be located at the exit from the batch unit operation after any condensers operating as proces s condensers and before any control device. ( ii ) If a batch process vent is introduced with the combustion air or as a secondary fuel into a boiler or process heater with a design capacity less than 44 megawatts, selection of the location of the inlet samp ling sites shall ensure the measurement of total organic HAP concentrations in all batch process vents and primary and secondary fuels introduced into the boiler or process heater.Page 98 of 220

(B) Testing only the most challenging batch emission episode
. Under this pa ragraph, an owner or operator groups together several batch emission episodes and conducts a single performance test for the batch emission episode that is the most challenging, in terms of achieving emission reductions, for the control device or control t echnology; thereby demonstrating that the achieved emission reduction for the tested batch emission episode is the minimum control device or control technology performance expected for each batch emission episode in the group. The owner or operator shall u se the control device efficiency determined from the performance test for all the other batch emission episodes in that group for purposes of paragraph (e)(2)(iii) of this section. Performance tests shall be conducted using the testing procedures specified in §63.1414(a) and (b) and the following procedures: ( 1 ) The procedures specified in paragraphs (e)(2)(ii)(A)( 2 ) through ( 4 ) of this section. ( 2 ) Develop an emission profile illustrating the emission rate (kilogram/unit time) for each period of emissions to be addressed by the performance test. The emission profile shall be based on either process knowledge or test data. Examples of information that could constitute process knowledge include calculations based on material balances and process stoichiometry . Previous test results may be used to develop thePage 99 of 220

emission profile provided the results are still relevant to the current batch process vent conditions. The emission profile shall be included in the site

- specific test plan required by §63.1417(h)(2). ( 3 ) Provide rationale for why the control device efficiency for all the other batch emission episodes in the group will be greater than or equal to the control device efficiency achieved during the tested period of the most challenging batch emission episode i n the group, as specified in the Notification of Compliance Status Report required by §63.1417(e). (iii) Batch cycle percent reduction
. The percent reduction for the batch cycle for an individual reactor batch process vent and the overall percent reduction for the collection of non

reactor batch process vents within the affected source shall be determined using Equation 1 of this section and the control device efficiencies specified in paragraphs (e)(1)(iii)(A) through (C) of this section. All information u sed to calculate the batch cycle percent reduction for an individual reactor batch process vent, including a definition of the batch cycle identifying all batch emission episodes, shall be recorded as specified in §63.1416 (d)(1)(ii). All information used to calculate the overall percent reduction for the collection of

non - reactor batch process vents within the affected source, including a list of all batch emission episodes from thePage 100 of 220

collection of non

- reactor batch process vents within the affected source, shall be recorded as specified in §63.1416 (d)(1)(ii). This information shall include identification of those batch emission episodes, or portions thereof, selected for control. This information shall include estimates of uncontrolled organic HAP emissions for those batch emission episodes, or portions thereof, that are not selected for control, determined as specified in paragraph (e)(2)(iii)(D) or (E) of this section.

Where: PR = Percent reduction.
E unc = Mass rate of total organic HAP for uncontrolled batch emission episode i, kg/hr.
E inlet,con = Mass rate of total organic HAP for controlled batch emission episode i at the inlet to the control device, kg/hr. R = Control efficiency of control device as specified in paragraphs (e)(1)(iii)(A) through (e)(1 )(iii)(C) of this section. The value of R may vary between batch emission episodes.Page 101 of 220

n = Number of uncontrolled batch emission episodes, controlled batch emission episodes, and control devices. The value of n is not necessarily the same for these three item s. (A) When conducting a performance test, the control efficiency of the control device shall be determined following the procedures in §63.1414(b)(4). (B) For combustion control devices listed in paragraphs (a)(2)(i)(A) and (B) of this section and for fla res, the control efficiency in Equation 1 of this section shall be 98 percent. (C) If a performance test is not required, the control efficiency shall be based on the design evaluation specified in paragraph (e)(1)(i) of this section. (D) For batch process vents estimated through engineering assessment, as described in §63.1414(f)(6), to emit less than 10 tons per year of uncontrolled organic HAP emissions, the owner or operator may use in Equation 1 of this section the emissions determined using engineerin g assessment or may determine organic HAP emissions using any of the procedures specified in §63.1414(d). (E) For batch process vents estimated through engineering assessment, as described in §63.1414(d)(6), to emit 10 tons per year or greater of uncontrol led organic HAP emissions, organic HAP emissions shall be estimated following the procedures specified in §63.1414(d).Page 102 of 220

(F) Owners or operators designating a condenser, sometimes operated as a process condenser, as a control device shall conduct inprocess r ecycling and follow the recordkeeping requirements specified in §63.1416(d)(1)(vi). (iv) Initial compliance with percent reduction standards
. Initial compliance with the percent reduction standards specified in §63.1406(a)(1)(ii) and (2)(ii) and §63.1407(a )(2)(ii) and (3)(ii) is achieved when the owner or operator demonstrates, following the procedures in paragraphs (e)(1)(i) through (iii) of this section, that the required percent reduction is achieved. (v) Continuous compliance with percent reduction stan dards
. Continuous compliance with the percent reduction standards specified in §63.1406(a)(1)(ii) and (2)(ii) and §63.1407(a)(2)(ii) and (3)(ii) shall be demonstrated following the continuous monitoring procedures specified in §63.1415. (2) Compliance with mass emission limit standards
. Each owner or operator shall determine initial and continuous compliance with the mass emission limits specified in §63.1406 (a)(1)(iii) and (a)(2)(iii), according to the following procedures, as appropriate: (i) If producti on at an affected source is exclusively non

solvent

- based amino/phenolic resin or is exclusively solvent

based amino/phenolic resin, or an owner or operator chooses toPage 103 of 220

meet the non

- solvent

- based emission limit, the owner or operator shall demonstrate initi al and continuous compliance as follows: (A) Initial compliance
. Initial compliance shall be based on the average of the first 6 monthly average emission rate data points. The 6

- month average shall be compared to the mass emission limit specified in §63.1406 (a)(1)(iii) and (a)(2)(iii), as appropriate. (B) Continuous compliance
. For the first year of compliance, continuous compliance shall be based on a cumulative average monthly emission rate calculated each month based on the available monthly emiss ion rate data points (e.g., 7 data points after 7 months of operation, 8 data points after 8 months of operation) beginning the first month after initial compliance is demonstrated. The first continuous compliance cumulative average monthly emission rate s hall be calculated using the first 7 monthly average emission rate data points. After the first year of compliance, a 12

- month rolling average monthly emission rate shall be calculated each month based on the previous 12 monthly emission rate data points. Continuous compliance shall be determined by comparing the cumulative average monthly emission rate or the 12

- month rolling average monthly emission rate to the mass emission limit specified in §63.1406 (a)(1)(iii) and (a)(2)(iii), as appropriate.Page 104 of 220

(C) Proc edures to determine the monthly emission rate

( 1 ) The monthly emission rate of organic HAP, in kilograms per month, from an individual batch process vent (E i ) shal l be determined using Equation 3 of this section. Once organic HAP emissions for a batch cycle (E cyclei ) have been estimated, as specified in either paragraph (e)(2)(i)(C)( 2 ) or ( 3 ) of this section, the owner or operator may use the estimated organic HAP

e missions (E cyclei ) to determine E i using Equation 3 of thisPage 105 of 220

section until the estimated organic HAP emissions (E cyclei ) are no longer representative due to a process change or other reasons known to the owner or operator. If organic HAP emissions for a bat ch cycle (E cyclei ) are determined to no longer be representative, the owner or operator shall redetermine organic HAP emissions for the batch cycle (E cyclei ) following the procedures in paragraph (e)(2)(i)(C)( 2 ) or ( 3 ) of this section, as appropriate.

Where:
E i = Monthly emissions from a batch process vent, kg/month.
N i = Number of type i batch cycles performed monthly, cycles/month.

proc edures specified in either paragraph (e)(2)(i)(C)( 2 ) or ( 3 ) of this section, kg/batch cycle. n = Number of different types of batch cycles that cause the emission of organic HAP from the batch process vent. ( 2 ) For reactor batch process vents estimated thr ough engineering assessment, as described in §63.1414(d)(6), to emit less than 10 tons per year of uncontrolled organic HAP emissions, the owner or operator may use the emissionsPage 106 of 220

For reactor batch process vents estimated through engineering assessment, as described in §63.1414(d)(6), to emit 10 tons per year or greater of uncontrolled organic HAP emissions, uncontrolled organic HAP emissions from the batch emission episodes making up the batch cycle shall be estimated following the procedures specified in §63.1414(d). ( 3 ) For reactor batch process vents vented to a control device or control technol ogy, controlled organic HAP emissions shall be determined as follows: ( i ) Uncontrolled organic HAP emissions shall be determined following the procedures in paragraph (e)(2)(i)(C)(2) of this section. ( ii ) Control device or control technology efficiency sha ll be determined using the procedures in paragraph (e)(1)(i) of this section for small control devices or the procedures in paragraph (e)(1)(ii) of this section for large control devices. ( iii ) Controlled organic HAP emissions shall be determined by applyi ng the control device or control technology efficiency, determined in paragraph (e)(2)(i)(C)( 3 )( ii ) of this section, to the uncontrolled organic HAP emissions, determined in paragraph (e)(2)(i)(C)( 3 )( i ) of this section.Page 107 of 220

For batch process vents, only parameter valu es recorded during those batch emission episodes, or portions thereof, in the batch cycle that the owner or operator has selected to control in order to comply shall be used to calculate the average. The calculated average shall cover a 24

- hour period if o peration is continuous, or the number of hours of operation per operating day if operation is not continuous for daily average values or batch cycle daily average values. The calculated average shall cover the entire period of the batch cycle for block ave rage values. As specified inPage 150 of 220

(3) An owner or operator may request approval to use an automated data compression recording syst em that does not record monitored operating parameter values at a set frequency (for example, once every 15 minutes) but records all values that meetPage 202 of 220

set criteria for variation from previously recorded values, in accordance with paragraphs (k)(3)(i) and (i i) of this section. (i) The requested system shall be designed to: (A) Measure the operating parameter value at least once every 15 minutes; (B) Except for the monitoring of batch process vents, calculate hourly average values each hour during periods of

o peration; (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, batch cycle daily average, or block average values of the monitored operating parameter based on all measured data; and (F) If the daily average is not a deviation, as defined in §63.1413( h i ), from the operating parameter, the data for that operating 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. (ii) The request shall contain:Page 203 of 220

(A) A description of the monitoring system and data compression recording system, including the criteria us ed 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 (k)(3)(i) of this section.
