 This section contains terms and conditions which are federally enforceable. Permittees may also

have other obligations under regulations of general applicability

Item A: Sealing - 6NYCRR Part 200.5

The Commissioner may seal an air contamination source to 

prevent its operation if compliance with 6 NYCRR Chapter 

III is not met within the time provided by an order of the

Commissioner issued in the case of the violation. 

Sealing means labeling or tagging a source to notify any 

person that operation of the source is prohibited, and 

also includes physical means of preventing the operation 

of an air contamination source without resulting in 

destruction of any equipment associated with such source, 

and includes, but is not limited to, bolting, chaining or 

wiring shut control panels, apertures or conduits 

associated with such source.

No person shall operate any air contamination source 

sealed by the Commissioner in accordance with this section

unless a modification has been made which enables such 

source to comply with all requirements applicable to such 

modification.

Unless authorized by the Commissioner, no person shall 

remove or alter any seal affixed to any contamination 

source in accordance with this section.

Item B: Acceptable Ambient Air Quality - 6NYCRR Part 200.6

Notwithstanding the provisions of 6 NYCRR Chapter III, 

Subchapter A, no person shall allow or permit any air 

contamination source to emit air contaminants in

Permit ID: 3-5508-00325/00001 Facility DEC ID: 3550800325

Monitoring Description: 

The owner or operator of each affected source subject to 

40CFR 63 Subpart N shall fulfill all recordkeeping 

requirements outlined in section 63.346 and in the General

Provisions to 40CFR 63 (40CFR63 Subpart A). 

The records specific for Subpart N are listed as items 

numbered 1 through 16 under section 63.346(b).

Subpart A requirements are specified in Table 1 to Subpart

N. They are listed as follows:

63.10(a)(3): If any State requires a report that contains

all the information required in a report listed in Subpart

A, an owner or operator may send the Administrator a copy 

of the report sent to the State to satisfy the 

requirements of Subpart A for that report. 

63.10(a)(4(ii): After a State has been delegated the 

authority to implement and enforce recordkeeping and 

reporting requirements established under this part, the 

owner or operator of an affected source in such State 

subject to such requirements shall submit reports to the 

delegated State authority (which may be the same as the 

permitting authority). In addition, if the delegated 

(permitting) authority is the State, the owner or operator

shall send a copy of each report submitted to the State to

the appropriate Regional Office of the EPA, as specified 

in paragraph (a)(4)(i) of section 63.10. The Regional 

Office may waive this requirement for any reports at its 

discretion. 

63.10(a)(5): If an owner or operator of an affected 

source in a State with delegated authority is required to 

submit periodic reports under Part 63 to the State, and if

the State has an established timeline for the submission 

of periodic reports that is consistent with the reporting 

frequency(ies) specified for such source under Part 63, 

the owner or operator may change the dates by which 

periodic reports under Part 63 shall be submitted (without

changing the frequency of reporting) to be consistent with

the State's schedule by mutual agreement between the owner

or operator and the State. For each relevant standard 

established pursuant to section 112 of the Act, the 

allowance in the previous sentence applies in each State 

beginning 1 year after the affected source's compliance 

 Air Pollution Control Permit Conditions

Page 11 of 26 FINAL
Permit ID: 3-5508-00325/00001 Facility DEC ID: 3550800325

date for that standard. Procedures governing the 

implementation of this provision are specified in 

§63.9(i). 

63.10(a)(6): If an owner or operator supervises one or 

more stationary sources affected by more than one standard

established pursuant to section 112 of the Act, he/she may

arrange by mutual agreement between the owner or operator 

and the Administrator (or the State permitting authority) 

a common schedule on which periodic reports required for 

each source shall be submitted throughout the year. The 

allowance in the previous sentence applies in each State 

beginning 1 year after the latest compliance date for any 

relevant standard established pursuant to section 112 of 

the Act for any such affected source(s). Procedures 

governing the implementation of this provision are 

specified in §63.9(i). 

63.10(a)(7): If an owner or operator supervises one or 

more stationary sources affected by standards established 

pursuant to section 112 of the Act (as amended November 

15, 1990) and standards set under part 60, part 61, or 

both such parts of this chapter, he/she may arrange by 

mutual agreement between the owner or operator and the 

Administrator (or the State permitting authority) a common

schedule on which periodic reports required by each 

relevant (i.e., applicable) standard shall be submitted 

throughout the year. The allowance in the previous 

sentence applies in each State beginning 1 year after the
