The items listed below are not subject to the annual compliance certification

 requirements under Title V. Permittees may also have other obligations

under regulations of general applicability.

Item A: 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 

occurred. This notice must contain a description of the 

emergency, any steps taken to mitigate emissions, and 

corrective actions taken.

(b) In any enforcement proceeding, the facility owner 

and/or operator seeking to establish the occurrence of an 

emergency has the burden of proof.

(c) This provision is in addition to any emergency or 

upset provision contained in any applicable requirement.

Item B: Public Access to Recordkeeping for Title V Facilities - 

6NYCRR Part 201-1.10(b)

The Department will make available to the public any 

permit application, compliance plan, permit, and 

monitoring and compliance certification report pursuant to

NYCRR Part 201-6.3(a)(4)

Owners and/or operators of facilities having an issued 

Title V permit shall submit a complete application at

are true, accurate, and complete.

Item E: Requirement to Comply With All Conditions - 6 NYCRR Part 

201-6.5(a)(2)

The permittee must comply with all conditions of the

renewal application.

Item F: Permit Revocation, Modification, Reopening, Reissuance or

Termination, and Associated Information Submission 

Requirements - 6 NYCRR Part 201-6.5(a)(3)

This permit may be modified, revoked, reopened and

any permit condition.

Item G: Cessation or Reduction of Permitted Activity Not a 

Defense - 6NYCRR Part 201-6.5(a)(5)

It shall not be a defense for a permittee in an 

enforcement action to claim that a cessation or reduction

All permittees granted a Title V facility permit shall be

covered under the protection of a permit shield, except as

provided under 6 NYCRR Subpart 201-6. Compliance with the

conditions of the permit shall be deemed compliance with 

any applicable requirements as of the date of permit 

issuance, provided that such applicable requirements are 

included and are specifically identified in the permit, or

the Department, in acting on the permit application or 

revision, determines in writing that other requirements 

specifically identified are not applicable to the major 

stationary source, and the permit includes the 

determination or a concise summary thereof. Nothing herein

shall preclude the Department from revising or revoking 

the permit pursuant to 6 NYCRR Part 621 or from exercising

its summary abatement authority. Nothing in this permit

pollution presenting an imminent and substantial 

endangerment to public health, welfare or the environment 

to stop the emission of air pollutants causing or 

contributing to such pollution;

ii. The liability of a permittee of the Title V facility 

for any violation of applicable requirements prior to or 

at the time of permit issuance;

 Air Pollution Control Permit Conditions

Renewal 1 Page 7 of 70 FINAL
Permit ID: 6-3016-00065/00009 Facility DEC ID: 6301600065

Act;

iv. The ability of the Department or the Administrator to 

obtain information from the permittee concerning the 

ability to enter, inspect and monitor the facility.

Item K: Reopening for Cause - 6 NYCRR Part 201-6.5(i)

This Title V permit shall be reopened and revised under 

any of the following circumstances:

i. If additional applicable requirements under the Act 

become applicable where this permit's remaining term is 

three or more years, a reopening shall be completed not 

later than 18 months after promulgation of the applicable 

requirement. No such reopening is required if the 

effective date of the requirement is later than the date 

on which this permit is due to expire, unless the original

permit or any of its terms and conditions has been 

extended by the Department pursuant to the provisions of 

Part 201-6.7 and Part 621.

ii. The Department or the Administrator determines that 

the permit contains a material mistake or that inaccurate 

statements were made in establishing the emissions 

standards or other terms or conditions of the 

permit.

iii. The Department or the Administrator determines that 

the Title V permit must be revised or reopened to assure 

compliance with applicable requirements.

iv. If the permitted facility is an "affected source" 

subject to the requirements of Title IV of the Act, and 

additional requirements (including excess emissions 

requirements) become applicable. Upon approval by the 

Administrator, excess emissions offset plans shall be 

deemed to be incorporated into the permit.

 Proceedings to reopen and issue Title V facility permits 

shall follow the same procedures as apply to initial 

permit issuance but shall affect only those parts of the 

permit for which cause to reopen exists.

 Reopenings shall not be initiated before a notice of such

intent is provided to the facility by the Department at 

least thirty days in advance of the date that the permit

Permit ID: 6-3016-00065/00009 Facility DEC ID: 6301600065

is to be reopened, except that the Department may provide

a shorter time period in the case of an emergency.

Item L: Permit Exclusion - ECL 19-0305

The issuance of this permit by the Department and the 

receipt thereof by the Applicant does not and shall not be

construed as barring, diminishing, adjudicating or in any 

way affecting any legal, administrative or equitable 

rights or claims, actions, suits, causes of action or 

demands whatsoever that the Department may have against 

the Applicant for violations based on facts and 

circumstances alleged to have occurred or existed prior to

the effective date of this permit, including, but not 

limited to, any enforcement action authorized pursuant to 

the provisions of applicable federal law, the 

Environmental Conservation Law of the State of New York 

(ECL) and Chapter III of the Official Compilation of the 

Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New York 

(NYCRR). The issuance of this permit also shall not in any

way affect pending or future enforcement actions under the

Clean Air Act brought by the United States or any person.

Item M: Federally Enforceable Requirements - 40 CFR 70.6(b)

0.050 grains of particulates per cubic foot of exhaust 

gas, expressed at standard conditions on a dry gas basis. 

If this condition appears in a Title V permit, and the 

Department has not otherwise directed the permittee to 

conduct a stack test, compliance with the 0.050 

grains/dscf particulate emission standard will be 

determined by the permittee's observation of the outlet of

the emission source to determine whether or not visible 

emissions are present following the guidelines similar to 

EPA Method 22. Visible emissions will not include those 

due to water vapor that is present in the exhaust gas. 

Observations must be made once per day while operations 

are taking place. These observations must be recorded in 

a log book, and be made available to the Department on 

request. If visible emissions are observed for two 

consecutive days, a Method 9 visible emissions test must 

be conducted by a certified observer. If the Method 9 

test determines that the opacity is less than 20%, 

observations of the stack in question shall be used to 

determine that the opacity of these emissions remain less 

than 20%.

The semiannual progress report and annual compliance 

certifications required of all permittees subject to Title

This Condition applies to Emission Unit: 1-CLN01

Item 44.2:

An owner or operator of a source shall determine their potential to emit from all solvent cleaning 

operations, using the procedures described in paragraphs (1) through (3) of this condition. A facility's 

total potential to emit is the sum of the HAP emissions from all solvent cleaning operations, plus all HAP 

emissions from other sources within the facility.

PTEi = (Hi)(Wi)(SAIi) (Eq. 6) 

Where: 

PTEi = the potential to emit for solvent cleaning machine i (kilograms of solvent per year). 

Hi = hours of operation for solvent cleaning machine i (hours per year). 

 = 8760 hours per year, unless otherwise restricted by a Federally enforceable requirement. 

Wi = the working mode uncontrolled emission rate (kilograms per square meter per hour). 

 = 1.95 kilograms per square meter per hour for batch vapor and cold cleaning machines. 

 = 1.12 kilograms per square meter per hour for in-line cleaning machines. 

SAIi = solvent/air interface area of solvent cleaning machine i (square meters). 40CFR 63.46 defines the 

solvent/air interface area for those machines that have a solvent/air interface. Cleaning machines that do 

not have a solvent/air interface shall calculate a solvent/air interface area using the procedure in 

paragraph (2) of this condition.

Item 58.2:

Compliance Certification shall include the following monitoring:

Monitoring Type: RECORD KEEPING/MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

Monitoring Description: 

Owner/operator is subject to the following work practice 

standards:

1) The owner/operator shall operate and maintain any 

affected source in a manner consistent with good air 

pollution control practices at all times (including during

startups, shutdowns, and malfunctions). Malfunctions 

shall be corrected as soon as practicable. Operation and 

maintenance requirements established under section 112 of 

the Act are enforceable independent of emissions 

limitations or other requirements in relevant 

standards.

2) Determination of whether the operation and maintenance 

procedures are acceptable will be based on information 

available to the Administrator which may include, but is 

not limited to, monitoring results; review of the 

operation and maintenance plan, procedures, and records; 

and inspection of the source. Based on the results of 

this determination, the Administrator may require that the

operation and maintenance plan be revised. Revisions may 

be required if it is found that the plan does not 1) 

address a malfunction that has occurred, 2) provide for 

the operation of the affected source, the air pollution 

control techniques, or the control system and process 

monitoring equipment during a malfunction in a manner 

consistent with good air pollution control practices, or 

3) provide adequate procedures for correcting 

malfunctioning process equipment, air pollution control

If the O/M plan fails to address an event that meets the 

characteristics of a malfunction at the time the plan is 

initially developed, the owner/operator shall revise the 

O/M plan within 45 days to include procedures for 

operating and maintaining the process equipment, add-on 

air pollution control device, or monitoring equipment 

during similar malfunctions, and a program for corrective 

actions for such events.

If actions taken by the owner/operator during periods of 

malfunction are inconsistent with the O/M plan, the 

actions taken shall be recorded and reported by phone 

within 2 working days after commencing actions 

inconsistent with the plan. This report shall be followed

by a letter within 7 working days after the end of the 

event.

The owner/operator shall keep the written O/M plan on

Monitoring Type: MONITORING OF PROCESS OR CONTROL 

 DEVICE PARAMETERS AS SURROGATE

Monitoring Description: 

During the initial performance test, the owner or 

operator of an affected source complying with the emission

limitations in §63.342 through the use of a wetting agent 

in the electroplating or anodizing bath shall determine 

the outlet chromium concentration using the procedures in 

§63.344(c). 

The owner or operator shall establish as the site-specific

operating parameter the surface tension of the bath using 

Method 306B, appendix A of Part 63, setting the maximum 

value that corresponds to compliance with the applicable 

emission limitation. 

In lieu of establishing the maximum surface tension during

the performance test, the owner or operator may accept 45 

dynes/cm as the maximum surface tension value that 

corresponds to compliance with the applicable emission 

limitation. However, the owner or operator is exempt from 

conducting a performance test only if the criteria of 

 Air Pollution Control Permit Conditions

Renewal 1 Page 56 of 70 FINAL
Permit ID: 6-3016-00065/00009 Facility DEC ID: 6301600065

paragraph (b)(2) of Section 63.343 are met.

On and after the date on which the initial performance 

test is required to be completed under §63.7, the owner or

operator of an affected source shall monitor the surface 

tension of the electroplating or anodizing bath. Operation

of the affected source at a surface tension greater than 

the value established during the performance test, or 

greater than 45 dynes/cm if the owner or operator is using

this value in accordance with paragraph (c)(5)(i) of 

section 63.343, shall constitute noncompliance with the 

standards. 

The surface tension shall be monitored according to the 

following schedule:

(A) The surface tension shall be measured once every 4 

hours during operation of the tank with a stalagmometer or

a tensiometer as specified in Method 306B, appendix A of 

Part 63.

(B) The time between monitoring can be increased if there 

have been no exceedances. The surface tension shall be 

measured once every 4 hours of tank operation for the 

first 40 hours of tank operation after the compliance 

date. Once there are no exceedances during 40 hours of 

tank operation, surface tension measurement may be 

conducted once every 8 hours of tank operation. Once there

are no exceedances during 40 hours of tank operation, 

surface tension measurement may be conducted once every 40

hours of tank operation on an ongoing basis, until an 

exceedance occurs. 

The minimum frequency of monitoring allowed by Subpart N 

is once every 40 hours of tank operation.

(C) Once an exceedance occurs as indicated through surface

tension monitoring, the original monitoring schedule of 

once every 4 hours must be resumed. A subsequent decrease 

in frequency shall follow the schedule laid out in 

paragraph (c)(5)(ii)(B) of section 63.343. 

Once a bath solution is drained from the affected tank and

a new solution added, the original monitoring schedule of 

once every 4 hours must be resumed, with a decrease in 

monitoring frequency allowed following the procedures of 

paragraphs (c)(5)(ii) (B) and (C) of section 63.343.

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 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 

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

NOTIFICATION OF GENERAL PERMITTEE OBLIGATIONS

 This section contains terms and conditions which are not federally enforceable. Permittees may also

have other obligations under regulations of general applicability

Item A: General Provisions for State Enforceable Permit Terms and

Condition - 6 NYCRR Part 201-5

Any person who owns and/or operates stationary sources 

shall operate and maintain all emission units and any 

required emission control devices in compliance with all 

applicable Parts of this Chapter and existing laws, and 

shall operate the facility in accordance with all 

criteria, emission limits, terms, conditions, and 

standards in this permit. Failure of such person to 

properly operate and maintain the effectiveness of such 

emission units and emission control devices may be 

sufficient reason for the Department to revoke or deny a 

permit.

The owner or operator of the permitted facility must 

maintain all required records on-site for a period of five

years and make them available to representatives of the 

Department upon request. Department representatives must 

be granted access to any facility regulated by this 

Subpart, during normal operating hours, for the purpose of

determining compliance with this and any other state and 

federal air pollution control requirements, regulations or

law.

Condition 68: Unavoidable noncompliance and violations

Effective between the dates of 05/04/2007 and 05/03/2012

Applicable State Requirement: 6NYCRR 201-1.4

Item 68.1:

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 compile and maintain records of all equipment 

maintenance or start-up/shutdown activities when they can be expected to result in an exceedance 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 duration 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.

(b) In the event that emissions of air contaminants in excess of any emission standard in 6 NYCRR 

Chapter III Subchapter A occur due to a malfunction, the facility owner and/or operator shall report such 

malfunction by telephone to the commissioner's representative as soon as possible during normal working 

hours, but in any event not later than two working days after becoming aware that the malfunction 

occurred. Within 30 days thereafter, when requested in writing by the commissioner'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

Permit ID: 6-3016-00065/00009 Facility DEC ID: 6301600065

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 depending 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/or operator shall take 

appropriate action to prevent emissions which will result 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 pollutants) excused, the specific federal regulation must 

provide for an affirmative defense during start-up, shutdowns, malfunctions or upsets.
