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 - 6 NYCRR 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 quantities which alone or in combination with emissions from other air contamination sources would contravene any applicable ambient air quality standard and/or cause air pollution. In such cases where contravention occurs or may occur, the Commissioner shall specify the degree and/or method of emission control required.
Item C: Maintenance of Equipment - 6NYCRR Part 200.7 Any person who owns or operates an air contamination

Item D: Unpermitted Emission Sources - 6 NYCRR Part 201-1.2 If an existing emission source was subject to the permitting requirements of 6NYCRR Part 201 at the time of construction or modification, and the owner and/or operator failed to apply for a permit for such emission source then the following provisions apply: (a) The owner and/or operator must apply for a permit for such emission source or register the facility in accordance with the provisions of Part 201. (b) The emission source or facility is subject to all regulations that were applicable to it at the time of construction or modification and any subsequent requirements applicable to existing sources or facilities.

Item E: Emergency Defense - 6NYCRR Part 201-1.5 An emergency constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with emissions limitations or permit conditions for all facilities in New York State. (a) The affirmative defense of emergency shall be demonstrated through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that: (1) An emergency occurred and that the facility owner and/or operator can identify the cause(s) of the emergency; (2) The equipment at the permitted facility causing the emergency was at the time being properly operated; (3) During the period of the emergency the facility owner and/or operator took all reasonable steps to minimize levels of emissions that exceeded the emission standards, or other requirements in the permit; and (4) The facility owner and/or operator notified the Department within two working days after the event

Condition 12: Unavoidable noncompliance and violations Effective between the dates of 03/23/2006 and Permit Expiration Date Applicable State Requirement: 6NYCRR 201-1.4

Item 12.1: At the discretion of the commissioner a violation of any applicable emission standard for necessary scheduled equipment maintenance, start-up/shutdown conditions and malfunctions or upsets may be excused if such violations are unavoidable. The following actions and recordkeeping and reporting requirements must be adhered to in such circumstances.
(a) The facility owner and/or operator shall comp ile and maintain records of all equipment maintenance or start-up/shutdown activities when they can be expected to result in an exceed ance of any applicable emission standard, and shall submit a report of such activities to the commissioner's representative when requested to do so in writing or when so required by a condition of a permit issued for the corresponding air contamination source except where conditions elsewhere in this permit which contain more stringent reporting and notification provisions for an applicable requirement, in which case they supercede those stated here. Such reports shall describe why the violation was unavoidable and shall include the time, frequency and dur ation of the maintenance and/or start-up/shutdown activities and the identification of air contaminants, and the estimated emission rates. If a facility owner and/or operator is subject to continuous stack monitoring and quarterly reporting requirements, he need not submit reports for equipment maintenance or start-up/shutdown for the facility to the commissioner's representative.

Within 30 days thereafter, when requeste d in writing by the commissi oner's representative, the facility owner and/or operator shall submit a written report to the commissioner's representative describing the malfunction, the corrective action taken, identification of air contaminants, and an estimate of the emission rates. These reporting requirements are superceded by conditions elsewhere in this permit which contain reporting and notification provisions for applicable requirements more stringent than those above.
(c) The Department may also require the owner and/or operator to include in reports described under (a) and (b) above an estimate of the maximum ground level concentration of each air contaminant emitted and the effect of such emissions dependi ng on the deviation of the malfunction and the air contaminants emitted. (d) In the event of maintenance, start-up/shutdown or malfunction conditions which result in emissions exceeding any applicable emission standard , the facility owner and/oroperator shall take appropriate action to prevent emissions which will resu lt in contravention of any applicable ambient air quality standard. Reasonably available control technology, as determined by the commissioner, shall be applied during any maintenance, start-up/shutdown or malfunction condition subject to this paragraph. (e) In order to have a violation of a federal regulation (such as a new source performance standard or national emissions standard for hazardous air pollutant s) excused, the specific federal regulation must provide for an affirmative defense during start-up, shutdowns, malfunctions or upsets.
