The Department of Environmental Protection adopts this chapter to establish general requirements for stationary sources of air pollutant emissions and definitions for use in this chapter as well as Chapters 62-212, 62-213, 62-214, 62-296, and 62-297, F.A.C. This chapter provides criteria for determining the need for an owner or operator to obtain Department authorization, by individual air permit, or by air general permit, to conduct certain activities involving sources of air pollutant emissions. It provides procedures to apply for an air construction or non-Title V air operation permit, or to register for use of an air general permit. It establishes public notice requirements, reporting requirements, and requirements relating to estimating emissions and using air quality models. This chapter also sets forth special provisions related to compliance monitoring, stack heights, circumvention of pollution control equipment, and excess emissions.

   2. The average rate shall be adjusted downward to exclude any non-compliant emissions that occurred while the source was operating above any emission limitation that was legally enforceable during the consecutive 24-month period.
   3. For a PSD pollutant, when a project involves multiple emissions units, only one consecutive 24-month period must be used to determine the baseline actual emissions for the emissions units being changed. A different consecutive 24-month period can be used for each PSD pollutant.
   4. The average rate shall not be based on any consecutive 24-month period for which there is inadequate information for determining annual emissions, in tons per year, and for adjusting this amount if required by subparagraph (a)2. above.
   (b) For an existing emissions unit (other than an electric utility steam generating unit), baseline actual emissions means the average rate, in tons per year, at which the emissions unit actually emitted the pollutant during any consecutive 24-month period selected by the owner or operator within the 10-year period immediately preceding the date a complete permit application is received by the Department, except that the 10-year period shall not include any period earlier than November 15, 1990.
   1. The average rate shall include fugitive emissions to the extent quantifiable, and emissions associated with startups and shutdowns.
   2. The average rate shall be adjusted downward to exclude any non-compliant emissions that occurred while the source was operating above an emission limitation that was legally enforceable during the consecutive 24-month period.
   3. The average rate shall be adjusted downward to exclude any emissions that would have exceeded an emission limitation with which the major stationary source must currently comply, had such major stationary source been required to comply with such limitations during the consecutive 24-month period.
   4. For a PSD pollutant, when a project involves multiple emissions units, only one consecutive 24-month period must be used to determine the baseline actual emissions for all the emissions units being changed. A different consecutive 24-month period can be used for each PSD pollutant.
   5. The average rate shall not be based on any consecutive 24-month period for which there is inadequate information for determining annual emissions, in tons per year, and for adjusting this amount if required by subparagraphs (b)2. and 3. above.
   (c) For a new emissions unit, the baseline actual emissions for purposes of determining the emissions increase that will result from the initial construction and operation of such unit shall equal zero; and thereafter, for all other purposes, shall equal the unit's potential to emit.

   (38) "Baseline Concentration"  -  The ambient concentration level that exists in the baseline area at the time of the applicable minor source baseline date. A baseline concentration is determined for each pollutant for which a minor source baseline date is established and for each averaging time for which a maximum allowable increase is established in Rule 62-204.260, F.A.C.
   (a) The baseline concentration shall include the concentration attributable to:
   1. The actual emissions representative of sources in existence on the applicable minor source baseline date, except as provided at paragraph (b) below; and
   2. The federally enforceable allowable emissions of major stationary sources on which construction commenced on or before the major source baseline date but which were not in operation by the applicable minor source baseline date.
   (b) The baseline concentration shall not include the concentration attributable to the following emissions; rather, such emissions shall affect the amount of any applicable allowable increase remaining available:
   1. The actual emissions from any major stationary source on which construction commenced after the major source baseline date; and
   2. Any increase or decrease in the actual emissions of facilities occurring after the applicable minor source baseline date.
   (c) For purposes of this definition, "construction" means any physical change or change in the method of operation (including fabrication, erection, installation, demolition, shutdown or modification of an emissions unit) that would result in a change in emissions, and "commence construction" has the meaning given at Rule 62-210.200, F.A.C., provided, however, that in the case of demolition or shutdown of an emissions unit, "commence construction" means that the owner or operator has permanently ceased all operations of the unit.
   (d) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (b) above:

   2. Concentrations of particulate matter attributable to the increase in emissions from construction or other temporary emission-related activities of new or modified facilities shall be excluded in determining compliance with any maximum allowable increase.
   (39) "Batch Process"  -  A process which takes in the basic raw materials at the beginning of a cycle and processes them in accordance with a predetermined scheme during which no more basic raw materials are added to the process. Two variations include:
   (a) Processes where some of the reactants (materials) are added at the beginning with the remainder added as the reaction progresses.
   (b) Processes where once the materials are added, one or more products are continuously removed as the reaction progresses.
Such processes include production of super phosphate, basic oxygen furnaces, and cement batch plants.
   (40) "Best Available Control Technology" or "BACT"  -  
   (a) An emission limitation, including a visible emissions standard, based on the maximum degree of reduction of each pollutant emitted which the Department, on a case by case basis, determines is achievable through application of production processes and available methods, systems and techniques (including fuel cleaning or treatment or innovative fuel combustion techniques) for control of each such pollutant, taking into account:
   1. Energy, environmental and economic impacts, and other costs;
   2. All scientific, engineering, and technical material and other information available to the Department; and
   3. The emission limiting standards or BACT determinations of Florida and any other state.
   (b) If the Department determines that technological or economic limitations on the application of measurement methodology to a particular part of an emissions unit or facility would make the imposition of an emission standard infeasible, a design, equipment, work practice, operational standard or combination thereof, may be prescribed instead to satisfy the requirement for the application of BACT. Such standard shall, to the degree possible, set forth the emissions reductions achievable by implementation of such design, equipment, work practice or operation.
   (c) Each BACT determination shall include applicable test methods or shall provide for determining compliance with the standard(s) by means which achieve equivalent results.

   62-210.300 Permits Required.
Unless exempted from permitting pursuant to this rule or Rule 62-4.040, F.A.C., the owner or operator of any facility or emissions unit which emits or can reasonably be expected to emit any air pollutant shall obtain appropriate authorization from the Department prior to undertaking any activity at the facility or emissions unit for which such authorization is required. The Department grants authorization to conduct such activities by individual air permit or by air general permit. Activities requiring authorization by individual air construction permit are addressed at subsection 62-210.300(1), F.A.C., and activities requiring authorization by individual air operation permit are addressed at subsection 62-210.300(2), F.A.C. Authorization by air general permit is addressed at subsection 62-210.300(4), F.A.C. All emission limitations, controls, and other requirements imposed by any individual air permit shall be at least as stringent as any limitations and requirements contained in or enforceable under the State Implementation Plan (SIP) or Designated Facility Plan. Except as provided at Rule 62-213.460, F.A.C., being authorized to construct, operate, or undertake any other activity by individual air permit or air general permit does not relieve the owner or operator of a facility or emissions unit from complying with any emission limiting standards or other requirements of the air pollution rules of the Department or any other such requirements under federal, state, or local law.
   (1) Air Construction Permits.
   (a) Unless exempt from permitting pursuant to paragraph 62-210.300(3)(a) or (b), F.A.C., or Rule 62-4.040, F.A.C., an air construction permit shall be obtained by the owner or operator of any proposed new, reconstructed, or modified facility or emissions unit, or any new pollution control equipment prior to the beginning of construction, reconstruction pursuant to 40 CFR 60.15 or 63.2, or modification of the facility or emissions unit or addition of the air pollution control equipment; or to establish a PAL; in accordance with all applicable provisions of this chapter, Chapter 62-212, F.A.C., and Chapter 62-4, F.A.C. Except as provided under Rule 62-213.415, F.A.C., the owner or operator of any facility seeking to create or change an air emissions bubble shall obtain an air construction permit in accordance with all the applicable provisions of this chapter, Chapters 62-212 and 62-4, F.A.C. The construction permit shall be issued for a period of time sufficient to allow construction, reconstruction or modification of the facility or emissions unit or addition of the air pollution control equipment; and operation while the owner or operator of the new, reconstructed or modified facility or emissions unit or the new pollution control equipment is conducting tests or otherwise demonstrating initial compliance with the conditions of the construction permit.
   (b) Notwithstanding the expiration of an air construction permit, all limitations and requirements of such permit that are applicable to the design and operation of the permitted facility or emissions unit shall remain in effect until the facility or emissions unit is permanently shut down, except for any such limitation or requirement that is obsolete by its nature (such as a requirement for initial compliance testing) or any such limitation or requirement that is changed in accordance with the provisions of subparagraph 62-210.300(1)(b)1., F.A.C. Either the applicant or the Department can propose that certain conditions be considered obsolete. Any conditions or language in an air construction permit that are included for informational purposes only, if they are transferred to the air operation permit, shall be transferred for informational purposes only and shall not become enforceable conditions unless voluntarily agreed to by the permittee or otherwise required under Department rules.
   1. Except for those limitations or requirements that are obsolete, all limitations and requirements of an air construction permit shall be included and identified in any air operation permit for the facility or emissions unit. The limitations and requirements included in the air operation permit can be changed, and thereby superseded, through the issuance of an air construction permit, federally enforceable state air operation permit, federally enforceable air general permit, or Title V air operation permit; provided, however, that:
   a. Any change that would constitute an administrative correction may be made pursuant to Rule 62-210.360, F.A.C.;
   b. Any change that would constitute a modification, as defined at Rule 62-210.200, F.A.C., shall be accomplished only through the issuance of an air construction permit; and
   c. Any change in a permit limitation or requirement that originates from a permit issued by the Environmental Protection Agency pursuant to 40 C.F.R. 52.21, or by the Department pursuant to subparagraph 62-204.800(11)(d)2., F.A.C., Rule 62-212.400, F.A.C., Rule 62-212.500, F.A.C., or any former codification of Rule 62-212.400 or 62-212.500, F.A.C., shall be accomplished only through the issuance of a new or revised air construction permit under subparagraph 62-204.800(11)(d)2., F.A.C., Rule 62-212.400 or 62-212.500, F.A.C., as appropriate.
   2. The force and effect of any change in a permit limitation or requirement made in accordance with the provisions of subparagraph 62-210.300(1)(b)1., F.A.C., shall be the same as if such change were made to the original air construction permit.
   3. Nothing in paragraph 62-210.300(1)(b), F.A.C., shall be construed as to allow operation of a facility or emissions unit without a valid air operation permit.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 62-210.200(1)(a), F.A.C., the owner or operator of any eligible facility who registers to use an air general permit under Rule 62-210.310, F.A.C., or Rule 62-213.300, F.A.C., who is not denied use of the air general permit, and who constructs the facility in compliance with the terms and conditions of the air general permit shall not be required to obtain an air construction permit pursuant to this subsection, provided, however, that any proposed new major stationary source, major modification, or modification that would be a major modification but for the provisions of paragraph 62-212.400(2)(a), F.A.C., shall require authorization by air construction permit. 
   (2) Air Operation Permits. Upon expiration of the air operation permit for any existing facility or emissions unit; subsequent to any construction, reconstruction or modification of a facility or emissions unit authorized by an air construction permit, and demonstration of compliance with the conditions of such air construction permit; subsequent to the establishment of a PAL or air emissions bubble by air construction permit; or as otherwise provided in this chapter or Chapter 62-213, F.A.C.; the owner or operator of such facility or emissions unit shall obtain a renewal air operation permit, an initial air operation permit, or revision of an existing air operation permit, whichever is appropriate, in accordance with all applicable provisions of this chapter, Chapter 62-213 (if the facility is a Title V source), and Chapter 62-4, F.A.C.
   (a) Minimum Requirements for All Air Operation Permits. At a minimum, a permit issued pursuant to this subsection shall:
   1. Specify the manner, nature, volume and frequency of the emissions permitted, and the applicable emission limiting standards or performance standards, if any;
   2. Require proper operation and maintenance of any pollution control equipment by qualified personnel, where applicable in accordance with the provisions of any operation and maintenance plan required by the air pollution rules of the Department.
   3. Contain an effective date stated in the permit which shall not be earlier than the date final action is taken on the application and be issued for a period, beginning on the effective date, as provided below.
   a. The operation permit for an emissions unit which is in compliance with all applicable rules and in operational condition, and which the owner or operator intends to continue operating, shall be issued or renewed for a five-year period.
   b. Except as provided in sub-subparagraph 62-210.300(2)(a)3.d., F.A.C., the operation permit for an emissions unit which has been shut down for six months or more prior to the expiration date of the current operation permit, shall be renewed for a period not to exceed five years from the date of shutdown, even if the emissions unit is not maintained in operational condition, provided:
   (I) The owner or operator of the emissions unit demonstrates to the Department that the emissions unit may need to be reactivated and used, or that it is the owner's or operator's intent to apply to the Department for a permit to construct a new emissions unit at the facility before the end of the extension period; and
   (II) The owner or operator of the emissions unit agrees to and is legally prohibited from providing the allowable emission permitted by the renewed permit as an emissions offset to any other person under Rule 62-212.500, F.A.C.; and
   (III) The emissions unit was operating in compliance with all applicable rules as of the time the source was shut down.
   c. Except as provided in sub-subparagraph 62-210.300(2)(a)3.d., F.A.C., the operation permit for an emissions unit which has been shut down for five years or more prior to the expiration date of the current operation permit shall be renewed for a maximum period not to exceed ten years from the date of shutdown, even if the emissions unit is not maintained in operational condition, provided the conditions given in sub-subparagraph 62-210.300(2)(a)3.b., F.A.C., are met and the owner or operator demonstrates to the Department that failure to renew the permit would constitute a hardship, which may include economic hardship.
   d. The operation permit for an electric utility generating unit on cold standby or long-term reserve shutdown shall be renewed for a five-year period, and additional five-year periods, even if the unit is not maintained in operational condition, provided the conditions given in sub-sub-subparagraphs 62-210.300(2)(a)3.b.(I) through (III), F.A.C., are met.
   4. In the case of an emissions unit permitted pursuant to sub-subparagraphs 62-210.300(2)(a)3.b., c., and d., F.A.C., include reasonable notification and compliance testing requirements for reactivation of such emissions unit and provide that the owner or operator demonstrate to the Department prior to reactivation that such reactivation would not constitute any modification or reconstruction pursuant to this chapter or any federal regulation adopted by reference at Rule 62-204.800, F.A.C.
   (b) Additional Requirements for Federally Enforceable State Operation Permits (FESOPs) for Non-Title V Sources.
   1. An operation permit for a non-Title V source, including a synthetic non-Title V source, shall be considered federally enforceable only if it is issued, renewed, or revised in accordance with the following provisions:
   a. At the time of initial application for the permit, the applicant requests that the permit be made federally enforceable.
   b. A notice of proposed agency action on the initial application, any renewal application involving material changes from the existing permit, and any application for permit revision is published in accordance with the provisions of subsections 62-210.350(1) and subsection (4), F.A.C., except as provided in subparagraph 62-210.300(2)(b)3., F.A.C.
   c. The permit is a facility-wide permit.
   d. The permit is conditioned such that the owner or operator is legally obligated to adhere to the terms and limitations of such permit, including any condition or limitation assumed by the owner or operator upon acceptance of such permit.
   e. The permit is conditioned such that any emissions limitation, control requirement, or other requirement assumed by the owner or operator upon acceptance of such permit shall be quantifiable and enforceable as a practical matter.
   2. Once a synthetic non-Title V source has been issued a federally enforceable state operation permit (FESOP), it shall remain subject to the requirements of paragraph 62-210.300(2)(b), F.A.C., unless:
   a. The owner or operator accepts a higher limit and the facility becomes a Title V source; or
   b. The owner or operator demonstrates to the Department that it no longer needs a federally enforceable operation permit to be classified as a non-Title V source (i.e., the facility is naturally "minor" without any federally enforceable limits) and specifically requests exemption from these requirements.
   3. If all of the permitted emissions units within a facility have been issued one or more air construction permits which have undergone public notice in accordance with procedures at least as stringent as those provided in subsection 62-210.350(4), F.A.C., and the applicant requests that the conditions of such construction permit(s) be transferred without material change to a federally enforceable state operation permit (FESOP), the Department shall waive the requirements of sub-subparagraph 62-210.300(2)(b)1.b. and subparagraph 62-210.350(4)(a)3., F.A.C., for publication of a notice of proposed agency action; provided, however, that the remaining provisions of subsection 62-210.350(4), F.A.C., shall apply, including the requirement that notice be given to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and any local air pollution control program.
   4. If an applicant requests that existing, multiple air operation permits for a facility be consolidated into a single federally enforceable state operation permit (FESOP), the Department shall reduce the permit processing fee required pursuant to Rule 62-4.050, F.A.C., by an amount equal to the sum of the processing fees paid for the existing permits prorated by the number of years remaining until expiration of each such permit.
   (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 62-210.300(2), F.A.C., the owner or operator of any eligible facility who registers to use an air general permit under Rule 62-210.310, F.A.C., or Rule 62-213.300, F.A.C., who is not denied use of the air general permit, and who operates the facility in compliance with the terms and conditions of the air general permit shall not be required to obtain an air operation permit pursuant to this subsection or Rule 62-213.400, F.A.C.
   (3) Exemptions from Permitting. Except as otherwise provided herein, an owner or operator shall not be required to obtain an air construction permit or non-Title V air operation permit, or to use an air general permit pursuant to Rule 62-210.310, F.A.C., for any facility, emissions unit or pollutant-emitting activity that satisfies the applicable permitting exemption criteria of paragraph 62-210.300(3)(a) or (b), F.A.C., or has been exempted from permitting pursuant to Rule 62-4.040, F.A.C. Failure of a facility, emissions unit or activity to satisfy the exemption criteria of paragraph 62-210.300(3)(a) or (b), F.A.C., does not preclude such facility, emissions unit or activity from being considered for exemption pursuant to Rule 62-4.040, F.A.C. Notwithstanding the above, no emissions unit or activity shall be exempt from the requirement to obtain an air construction permit or non-Title V air operation permit, or to use an air general permit pursuant to Rule 62-210.310, F.A.C., if it would be subject to any unit-specific limitation or requirement, unless compliance with such limitation or requirement is specifically listed as a condition of exemption. Furthermore, no new, reconstructed, or modified emissions unit or activity shall be exempt from the requirement to obtain an air construction permit if its emissions would contribute to a major modification or to any modification that would be a major modification but for the use, in whole or in part, of the baseline actual-to-projected actual applicability test in Rule 62-212.400, F.A.C. An emissions unit or pollutant-emitting activity exempt from the requirement to obtain an air construction permit shall not be exempt from the permitting requirements of Chapter 62-213, F.A.C., if it is contained within a Title V source or if its emissions, in combination with the emissions of other emission units and activities at the facility, would cause the facility to be classified as a Title V source. Exemption from the requirement to obtain an air construction permit or non-Title V air operation permit, or to use an air general permit pursuant to Rule 62-210.310, F.A.C., does not relieve the owner or operator of a facility or emissions unit from complying with any limitation or requirement applicable to such facility or emissions unit.
   (a) Categorical and Conditional Exemptions. Except as otherwise provided at subsection 62-210.300(3), F.A.C., above, the following facilities, emissions units, and pollutant-emitting activities shall be exempt from any requirement to obtain an air construction permit or non-Title V air operation permit, or to use an air general permit pursuant to Rule 62-210.310, F.A.C.

   (2) Emissions Limits.
   (a) All facilities containing existing emissions units and new emissions units which are specifically listed in Section 403.08725(2), F.S., and for which the primary function is citrus processing or the direct support of citrus processing, shall comply at all times with the limitations and requirements specified for such units by the statute and this implementing rule, except that facilities may determine compliance with peel dryer VOC emissions on an annual basis, in accordance with subsection 62-210.340(3), F.A.C. In addition, all such units shall be operated at all times to reduce emissions of carbon monoxide through use of good combustion techniques, which are specified in paragraph 62-210.340(2)(c), F.A.C. As used in Section 403.08725, F.S., and in Rule 62-210.340, F.A.C., except as provided at paragraph 62-210.340(2)(b), F.A.C., the term "constructed" means that an emissions unit is added (i.e., built or installed) to a facility.
   (b) No facility may install, construct or modify any emissions unit not specifically listed in Section 403.08725(2), F.S., or any new emissions unit, the primary function of which is not citrus processing or the direct support of citrus processing, regardless of the type or description of the emissions unit, without the facility and the Department first complying with all the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) provisions of Rule 62-212.400, F.A.C., and without the facility's responsible official first receiving from the Department a Best Available Control Technology (BACT) determination for the proposed activity, if the emissions from such unit are significant as determined by this paragraph. 
   1. An example of a new emissions unit for which the primary function is other than citrus processing or the direct support of citrus processing is any unit generating electricity of which more than one third is for sale or use off site. 
   2. The emissions from any such unit shall be significant if the maximum uncontrolled potential emissions of the unit, in conjunction with the maximum uncontrolled potential emissions from all other such units which were constructed, installed or modified within a five-year period prior to the proposed modification, installation or construction, are not less than the significance thresholds listed at Table 212.400-2. Seasonality of unit operations shall be a factor in determining maximum uncontrolled potential emissions.
   3. The facility shall not install or construct or modify any such unit without first having fully complied with this paragraph, and with all state and federal public participation requirements including all requirements of Rule 62-210.350, F.A.C., relating to construction permits for emissions units subject to Prevention of Significant Deterioration. Failure of a facility to comply fully with all the provisions of subsections 62-212.400(5) and (6), and 62-210.350(1)(a), (b), and (2), F.A.C., shall be considered failure to obtain a PSD permit for purposes of Florida's federally approved State Implementation Plan and Title V permit program. Thereafter any emissions limitations or other requirements contained in the BACT determination shall be complied with at all times and shall be included as federal requirements in all notices, compliance certifications, or any other reports required by Section 403.08725, F.S., and by this rule.
   4. No mechanism otherwise available under subsection 62-212.400(2) or (3), F.A.C., to avoid full application of PSD and BACT shall be available; however, the Department shall perform all modeling and analysis required by subsection 62-212.400(5), F.A.C., in lieu of obtaining such analyses from the facility. Such modeling and analysis shall be based upon information provided and certified by the facility's responsible official and by a Florida Licensed Professional Engineer.
   5. Any VOC emissions limits established under a BACT determination shall be achieved separately and distinctly from VOC emissions limits of Section 403.08725(2)(c), F.S., and allowances may not be used to comply with such limits.
   6. At the time of submitting information for purposes of complying with the PSD and BACT requirements of this section, the responsible official of any plant proposing such an emissions unit shall provide all information required by 40 CFR Part 64, if such unit is subject to Compliance Assurance Monitoring requirements under that regulation.
   (c) Each facility shall operate its boilers and citrus peel dryers in accordance with the manufacturer's operating manual, or recommended operating practices provided by the manufacturer, equipment vendor, or a professional engineer registered in Florida, as well as with the practices described in this paragraph.

   (3) Compliance With VOC Emission Limits. Use of allowances to comply with the emission limits for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is allowed by Section 403.08725, F.S. Valid allowances are created by reducing VOC emissions below the levels that would be achieved by the oil recovery specified by Section 403.08725(2)(c), F.S.
   (a) Allowances shall only be created by, and obtained from, sources authorized to operate under Section 403.08725, F.S., and no allowance shall be created as a result of compliance with any other emission limitation or other requirement of federal or state law. Allowances will not be acceptable for compliance with any other emissions limits. All creation and use of allowances shall be accomplished as provided by this section. All allowances created shall be in units of tons. Allowances of less than one ton, or fractions of tons, may not be created, traded or used for compliance purposes. All allowances obtained to meet emissions limits for a calendar year must have been created during the same calendar year.
   (b) Compliance with the emission limits for VOCs of Section 403.08725(2)(c), F.S., shall be demonstrated by calculating the compliance indicator, as follows. All measured quantities of oil used in Equations 1, 2 and 3, shown in paragraph 62-210.340(3)(f), F.A.C., below, shall be in units of tons and shall reflect the sum total for the entire calendar year.
   1. Any facility not using an add-on thermal oxidizer that does not intend to create allowances or acquire allowances for compliance with VOC emission limits shall use Equation 1 to demonstrate compliance for the year in which no allowances are created or acquired. If the result of Equation 1 is positive or zero, the facility is in compliance with the VOC emission limit. If the result of Equation 1 is negative, the facility is in violation of the VOC emission limit. In this event, the facility may instead use Equation 2 to demonstrate compliance by acquiring allowances, provided that the facility has maintained the necessary records to use Equation 2.
   2. Any facility not using an add-on thermal oxidizer that intends to create allowances or acquire allowances for compliance with VOC emission limits shall use Equation 2 to demonstrate compliance and determine the number of allowances created or needed for compliance for the year in which allowances are created or acquired. All recovered oil must be actually measured and all emitted volatilized oil must be treated as emissions and not as reductions of peel oil. If the result of Equation 2 is positive or zero, the facility is in compliance with the VOC emission limit. If the result of Equation 2 is positive, the allowances created shall be equal to the truncated value of the compliance indicator. If the result of Equation 2 is negative, the facility must acquire sufficient allowances to avoid being in violation as described in paragraph 62-210.340(3)(e), F.A.C., below.
   3. Alternatively, any facility not using an add-on thermal oxidizer that does not intend to create allowances or acquire allowances for compliance with VOC emission limits may use Equation 2 to demonstrate compliance, provided that the facility has maintained the necessary records to use that equation, and otherwise complies with the requirements of subparagraph 62-210.340(3)(b)2., F.A.C., above.
   4. Any facility that voluntarily installs and operates an add-on thermal oxidizer shall use Equation 3 to demonstrate compliance and determine the number of allowances created or needed for compliance for the year in which allowances are created or acquired. For purposes of this rule voluntary installation shall mean any installation not required to achieve any reduction required by any federal or state rule or order other than required by Section 403.08725(2)(c), F.S. If the result of Equation 3 is positive or zero, the facility is in compliance with the VOC emission limit. If the result of Equation 3 is positive, the allowances created shall be equal to the truncated value of the compliance indicator. If the result of Equation 3 is negative, the facility must acquire sufficient allowances to avoid being in violation as described in paragraph 62-210.340(3)(e), F.A.C., below. Measurement of VOC destruction efficiency used in Equation 3 from a voluntarily installed add-on thermal oxidizer shall be performed by testing while the dryer is drying peel, with no less than two tests performed each calendar year, conducted no less than 60 days apart. Destruction efficiency shall be determined by simultaneously measuring the VOC concentration in the inlet and outlet of the device, using EPA Reference Method 25A, with inlet and outlet measurements determined on a consistent basis, and the monitoring instrument calibrated with propane. Destruction efficiency shall be the fraction, reported to three decimal places, calculated as the numeral one minus the ratio of the outlet concentration divided by the inlet concentration. The minimum level of destruction efficiency measured by such tests each year shall be used in all calculations for that year. The temperature of the thermal oxidizer's exhaust gas stream shall be continuously measured and recorded at the outlet of the thermal oxidizer's last chamber. For the duration of time that the thermal oxidizer is operated below the minimum temperature that is recorded during the test that results in the lowest destruction efficiency, the assumed destruction efficiency shall be zero.
   5. Consistent with the provisions of Section 403.08725(4)(a)1., F.S., facilities may accept wet peel from, or send wet peel to another facility for further processing and drying, provided that each facility involved receives or provides, respectively, sufficient recorded information to account for the recovery of oil from such peel, including oil in products and by-products specified at subsection 62-210.340(3), F.A.C., at the receiving facility. A facility that sends wet peel offsite for any purpose shall not include the related oil in products and by-products in its oil recovery calculations. Such oil shall be included in the oil recovery calculations of the receiving facility. In any case, oil in products and by-products related to peel that is not processed through a peel dryer shall be excluded from all oil recovery calculations.
   (c) Prior to April 1st of each calendar year, each facility that has created allowances for the past calendar year and that has provided such allowances to any other facility, shall notify the Department that the allowances were transferred and shall provide documentation that: the allowances are in excess of recovery necessary to meet required VOC emission reductions; that the allowances have not been accounted for in any VOC emissions reductions at the creating facility; the oil has actually been recovered or destroyed in an add-on thermal oxidizer; and the allowances have not previously been sold, traded or otherwise used for compliance with VOC emission reductions. The notice shall also contain the calculations used to determine the allowances created and identification of the year the allowances were created. All such notices and declarations shall be certified by a responsible official at the producing facility. Such oil recovery and emission reductions calculations shall also be certified by a Florida Licensed Professional Engineer.
   (d) Prior to April 1st of each calendar year, any facility acquiring any allowances from any other facility for purposes of meeting the VOC emission reductions required by Section 403.08725(2)(c), F.S., shall notify the Department of use of such allowances. The notice shall include the calendar year for which the allowances are required; the amount of oil recovery actually accomplished by the acquiring facility for the same calendar year; the calculations used to measure that oil recovery; the amount of allowances needed by the facility to comply with Section 403.08725(2)(c), F.S., VOC emission limits; and the facility from which such allowances are being acquired. All such notices and declarations shall be certified by a responsible official at the acquiring facility. Such oil recovery and emission reductions calculations shall also be certified by a Florida Registered Professional Engineer.
   (e) Any facility which fails to achieve the VOC emission reductions required by Section 403.08725(2)(c), F.S., at the facility by the end of the calendar year, and which fails to acquire sufficient valid allowances to achieve the necessary reductions as provided by this paragraph by April 1 of the following calendar year, or which uses invalid allowances for compliance, shall be considered in violation of an emissions limitation provided by permit.
   (f) Equations.
Equation 1: 
Compliance Indicator = OIF(1  -  K1)  -  OPP + ODP
Equation 2:
Compliance Indicator = OJ + CPO + EO + DL + ODP  -  K1(OIF)
Equation 3:
Compliance Indicator = OIF(1  -  K1)  -  OPP + ODP + K2(OPP) (DE)
Where:
K1 = 0.50, during the period of time that the required oil recovery percentage specified by Section 403.08725(2)(c), F.S., is 50%; then, 
K1 = 0.65, thereafter.
K2 = 0.72 if only dryer emissions are routed through the Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO).
K2 = 0.81 if both dryer and cooler emissions are routed through the RTO.
DE = RTO destruction efficiency = 1  -  (outlet concentration/inlet concentration)
And the following are all in units of tons:
OIF = Oil in Incoming Fruit
ODP = Oil in Dried Pellets
OPP = Oil in Pressed Peel
OJ = Oil in Juice
CPO = Cold Press Oil
EO = Essence Oil
DL = d-limonene
   (4) Reporting and Monitoring.
   (a) No later than April 1 of each calendar year, each facility's primary responsible official shall certify the compliance status of each emissions unit at the facility with each limit or other requirement of Section 403.08725, F.S., with any BACT determination obtained pursuant to subsection 62-210.340(2), F.A.C., and with any other requirement of this rule to which the emissions unit is subject. The certification shall identify each emissions unit; each requirement to which the unit is subject; the compliance status of the unit during the preceding reporting period, including whether compliance was continuous or intermittent; and the method(s) used to determine the compliance status, all as required by 40 CFR section 70.6(c)(5)(iii), adopted and incorporated by reference at Rule 62-204.800, F.A.C. The responsible official may use Form 62-213.900(7) for such certification so long as the responsible official considers the permit conditions and requirements to include all applicable requirements of Section 403.08725, F.S.; all applicable provisions of any federal regulation to which the facility is subject; all requirements of any BACT determination obtained under this rule; and all other requirements of this rule applicable to the facility and so long as the responsible official identifies all reportable deviations from, and all instances of non-compliance with, any of those applicable requirements.
   (b) Each facility shall test each emission-limited unit at least annually for compliance with each emission limit, except that limits of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and VOC established by Section 403.08725, F.S., shall be monitored as required by this paragraph in lieu of testing. The facility shall notify the Department of the date, time and place of each test, at least 15 days prior to the test date. All records relating to any required testing and monitoring shall be maintained on site for a period of five years and shall be made available to the Department upon request. All required test results shall be reported to the Department within 60 days of completion. All such reports shall be submitted as Title V reports, certified by the responsible official of the facility. Monitoring reports shall be submitted by the responsible official, at least semi-annually, in accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR Part 70. All such reports shall be certified by the responsible official of the facility. Failure of any facility to timely and completely monitor, test, or report shall be considered a violation of a permit condition. Testing and monitoring shall be accomplished as follows:
   1. Any facility containing an emissions unit subject to one or more emissions limits by any federal regulation(s) shall test emissions of all such limited pollutants at least annually, using the methodology specified in each applicable federal regulation for emissions testing.

   62-210.370 Emissions Computation and Reporting.
   (1) Applicability.  This rule sets forth required methodologies to be used by the owner or operator of a facility for computing actual emissions, baseline actual emissions, and net emissions increase, as defined at Rule 62-210.200, F.A.C., and for computing emissions for purposes of the reporting requirements of subsection 62-210.370(3) and paragraph 62-212.300(1)(e), F.A.C., or of any permit condition that requires emissions be computed in accordance with this rule.  This rule is not intended to establish methodologies for determining compliance with the emission limitations of any air permit.
   (2) Computation of Emissions.  For any of the purposes set forth in subsection 62-210.370(1), F.A.C., the owner or operator of a facility shall compute emissions in accordance with the requirements set forth in this subsection.
   (a) Basic Approach.  The owner or operator shall employ, on a pollutant-specific basis, the most accurate of the approaches set forth below to compute the emissions of a pollutant from an emissions unit; provided, however, that nothing in this rule shall be construed to require installation and operation of any continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS), continuous parameter monitoring system (CPMS), or predictive emissions monitoring system (PEMS) not otherwise required by rule or permit, nor shall anything in this rule be construed to require performance of any stack testing not otherwise required by rule or permit.
   1. If the emissions unit is equipped with a CEMS meeting the requirements of paragraph 62-210.370(2)(b), F.A.C., the owner or operator shall use such CEMS to compute the emissions of the pollutant, unless the owner or operator demonstrates to the department that an alternative approach is more accurate because the CEMS represents still-emerging technology.
   2. If a CEMS is not available or does not meet the requirements of paragraph 62-210.370(2)(b), F.A.C, but emissions of the pollutant can be computed pursuant to the mass balance methodology of paragraph 62-210.370(2)(c), F.A.C., the owner or operator shall use such methodology, unless the owner or operator demonstrates to the department that an alternative approach is more accurate.
   3. If a CEMS is not available or does not meet the requirements of paragraph 62-210.370(2)(b), F.A.C., and emissions cannot be computed pursuant to the mass balance methodology, the owner or operator shall use an emission factor meeting the requirements of paragraph 62-210.370(2)(d), F.A.C., unless the owner or operator demonstrates to the department that an alternative approach is more accurate.
   (b) Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS).
   1. An owner or operator may use a CEMS to compute emissions of a pollutant for purposes of this rule provided:
   a. The CEMS complies with the applicable certification and quality assurance requirements of 40 CFR Part 60, Appendices B and F, or, for an acid rain unit, the certification and quality assurance requirements of 40 CFR Part 75, all adopted by reference at Rule 62-204.800, F.A.C.; or
   b. The owner or operator demonstrates that the CEMS otherwise represents the most accurate means of computing emissions for purposes of this rule.
   2. Stack gas volumetric flow rates used with the CEMS to compute emissions shall be obtained by the most accurate of the following methods as demonstrated by the owner or operator:
   a. A calibrated flowmeter that records data on a continuous basis, if available; or
   b. The average flow rate of all valid stack tests conducted during a five-year period encompassing the period over which the emissions are being computed, provided all stack tests used shall represent the same operational and physical configuration of the unit.
   3. The owner or operator may use CEMS data in combination with an appropriate f-factor, heat input data, and any other necessary parameters to compute emissions if such method is demonstrated by the owner or operator to be more accurate than using a stack gas volumetric flow rate as set forth at subparagraph 62-210.370(2)(b)2., F.A.C., above.
   (c) Mass Balance Calculations.
   1. An owner or operator may use mass balance calculations to compute emissions of a pollutant for purposes of this rule provided the owner or operator:
   a. Demonstrates a means of validating the content of the pollutant that is contained in or created by all materials or fuels used in or at the emissions unit; and
   b. Assumes that the emissions unit emits all of the pollutant that is contained in or created by any material or fuel used in or at the emissions unit if it cannot otherwise be accounted for in the process or in the capture and destruction of the pollutant by the unit's air pollution control equipment.
   2. Where the vendor of a raw material or fuel which is used in or at the emissions unit publishes a range of pollutant content from such material or fuel, the owner or operator shall use the highest value of the range to compute the emissions, unless the owner or operator demonstrates using site-specific data that another content within the range is more accurate.
   3. In the case of an emissions unit using coatings or solvents, the owner or operator shall document, through purchase receipts, records and sales receipts, the beginning and ending VOC inventories, the amount of VOC purchased during the computational period, and the amount of VOC disposed of in the liquid phase during such period.
   (d) Emission Factors.
   1. An owner or operator may use an emission factor to compute emissions of a pollutant for purposes of this rule provided the emission factor is based on site-specific data such as stack test data, where available, unless the owner or operator demonstrates to the department that an alternative emission factor is more accurate.  An owner or operator using site-specific data to derive an emission factor, or set of factors, shall meet the following requirements.
   a. If stack test data are used, the emission factor shall be based on the average emissions per unit of input, output, or gas volume, whichever is appropriate, of all valid stack tests conducted during at least a five-year period encompassing the period over which the emissions are being computed, provided all stack tests used shall represent the same operational and physical configuration of the unit.
   b. Multiple emission factors shall be used as necessary to account for variations in emission rate associated with variations in the emissions unit's operating rate or operating conditions during the period over which emissions are computed.
   c. The owner or operator shall compute emissions by multiplying the appropriate emission factor by the appropriate input, output or gas volume value for the period over which the emissions are computed.  The owner or operator shall not compute emissions by converting an emission factor to pounds per hour and then multiplying by hours of operation, unless the owner or operator demonstrates that such computation is the most accurate method available.
   2. If site-specific data are not available to derive an emission factor, the owner or operator may use a published emission factor directly applicable to the process for which emissions are computed.  If no directly-applicable emission factor is available, the owner or operator may use a factor based on a similar, but different, process.
   (e) Accounting for Emissions During Periods of Missing Data from CEMS, PEMS, or CPMS.  In computing the emissions of a pollutant, the owner or operator shall account for the emissions during periods of missing data from CEMS, PEMS, or CPMS using other site-specific data to generate a reasonable estimate of such emissions.
   (f) Accounting for Emissions During Periods of Startup and Shutdown.  In computing the emissions of a pollutant, the owner or operator shall account for the emissions during periods of startup and shutdown of the emissions unit.
   (g) Fugitive Emissions.  In computing the emissions of a pollutant from a facility or emissions unit, the owner or operator shall account for the fugitive emissions of the pollutant, to the extent quantifiable, associated with such facility or emissions unit.
   (h) Recordkeeping.  The owner or operator shall retain a copy of all records used to compute emissions pursuant to this rule for a period of five years from the date on which such emissions information is submitted to the department for any regulatory purpose.
   (3) Annual Operating Report for Air Pollutant Emitting Facility.
   (a) The Annual Operating Report for Air Pollutant Emitting Facility (DEP Form No. 62-210.900(5)) shall be completed each year for the following facilities:
   1. All Title V sources.
   2. All synthetic non-Title V sources.
   3. All facilities with the potential to emit ten (10) tons per year or more of volatile organic compounds or twenty-five (25) tons per year or more of nitrogen oxides and located in an ozone nonattainment area or ozone air quality maintenance area.
   4. All facilities for which an annual operating report is required by rule or permit.
   (b) Notwithstanding paragraph 62-210.370(3)(a), F.A.C., no annual operating report shall be required for any facility operating under an air general permit.
   (c) The annual operating report shall be submitted to the appropriate Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) division, district or DEP-approved local air pollution control program office by April 1 of the following year, except that the annual operating report for year 2008 shall be submitted by May 1, 2009. If the report is submitted using the Department's electronic annual operating report software, there is no requirement to submit a copy to any DEP or local air program office.
   (d) Emissions shall be computed in accordance with the provisions of subsection 62-210.370(2), F.A.C., for purposes of the annual operating report.
   (4) Facility Relocation. Unless otherwise provided by rule or more stringent permit condition, the owner or operator of a relocatable facility must submit a Facility Relocation Notification Form (DEP Form No. 62-210.900(6)) to the Department at least thirty (30) days prior to the relocation. A separate form shall be submitted for each facility in the case of the relocation of multiple facilities which are jointly owned or operated.

   62-210.550 Stack Height Policy.
   (1) General. The degree of emission limitation required of any emissions unit for control of any air pollutant on a continuous basis shall not be affected by so much of any emissions unit's stack height that exceeds good engineering practice, as provided in subsection 62-210.550(3), F.A.C., or by any other dispersion technique, as provided in subsection 62-210.550(2), F.A.C. This provision shall not apply to those stacks in existence, or dispersion techniques implemented, on or before December 31, 1970, except where pollutants are being emitted from such stacks or using such dispersion techniques by emissions units, as defined in section 111(a)(3) of the Clean Air Act, which were constructed, or reconstructed, or for which modifications under Rules 62-212.400, 62-212.500, 17-2.17 (repealed), 17-2.500 (transferred), or 17-2.510 (transferred), F.A.C., or 40 C.F.R. 52.21, were carried out after December 31, 1970. Also, this provision shall not restrict in any manner the actual stack height of any emissions unit.
   (2) Dispersion Technique.
   (a) "Dispersion technique" means any technique which attempts to affect the concentration of a pollutant in the ambient air by:
   1. Using that portion of a stack which exceeds good engineering practice stack height;
   2. Varying the rate of emission of a pollutant according to atmospheric conditions or ambient concentrations of that pollutant; or
   3. Increasing final exhaust gas plume rise by manipulating source process parameters, exhaust gas parameters, stack parameters (other than stack height), or combining exhaust gases from several existing stacks into one stack; or other selective handling of exhaust gas streams so as to increase the exhaust gas plume rise.
   (b) The preceding sentence does not include:
   1. The reheating of a gas stream, following use of a pollution control system, for the purpose of returning the gas to the temperature at which it was originally discharged from the facility generating the gas stream;
   2. The merging of exhaust gas streams where:
   a. The owner or operator demonstrates that the facility was originally designed and constructed with such merged gas streams;
   b. After July 8, 1985, such merging is part of a change in operation at the facility that includes the installation of pollution controls and is accompanied by a net reduction in the allowable emissions of a pollutant. This exclusion from the definition of "dispersion techniques" shall apply only to the emission limitation for the pollutant affected by such change in operation; or
   c. Before July 8, 1985, such merging was part of a change in operation at the facility that included the installation of emissions control equipment or was carried out for sound economic or engineering reasons. Where there was an increase in the emission limitation or, in the event that no emission limitation was in existence prior to the merging, an increase in the quantity of pollutants actually emitted prior to the merging, the Department shall presume that merging was significantly motivated by an intent to gain emissions credit for greater dispersion. Absent a demonstration by the owner or operator that merging was not significantly motivated by such intent, the Department shall deny credit for the effects of such merging in calculating the allowable emissions for the emissions unit; or
   3. Smoke management in agricultural or silvicultural prescribed burning programs;
   4. Episodic restrictions on residential woodburning and open burning; or
   5. Techniques under subparagraph 62-210.550(2)(a)3., F.A.C., which increase final exhaust gas plume rise where the resulting allowable emissions of sulfur dioxide from the facility do not exceed 5,000 tons per year.
   (3) Good Engineering Practice.
   (a) "Good engineering practice" (GEP) stack height means the greater of:
   1. 65 meters, measured from the ground-level elevation at the base of the stack;
   2. The stack height as determined below:
   a. For stacks in existence on January 12, 1979, and for which the owner or operator had obtained all applicable permits or approvals required under 40 C.F.R. Parts 51 and 52, Hg = 2.5H, provided the owner or operator produces evidence that this equation was actually relied on in establishing an emission limitation;
   b. For all other stacks,
   Hg = H + 1.5L, where
   Hg = good engineering practice stack height, measured from the ground-level elevation at the base of the stack,
   H = height of nearby structure(s) measured from the ground-level elevation at the base of the stack,
   L = lesser dimension, height or projected width, of nearby structure(s) provided that the EPA, Department, or local air program may require the use of a field study or fluid model to verify GEP stack height for the emissions unit; or
   3. The height demonstrated by a fluid model or a field study approved by the EPA, Department, or local air program which ensures that the emissions from a stack do not result in excessive concentrations of any air pollutant as a result of atmospheric downwash, wakes, or eddy effects created by the emissions unit itself, nearby structures, or nearby terrain features. If this height exceeds the height allowed by subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)1. or 2., F.A.C., the Department shall notify the public of the availability of the demonstration study and provide an opportunity for a public hearing on it.
   (b) "Nearby" as used in paragraph 62-210.500(3)(a), F.A.C., is defined for a specific structure or terrain feature and:
   1. For purposes of applying subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)2., F.A.C., means that distance up to five times the lesser of the height or the width dimension of a structure, but not greater than 0.8 km (1/2 mile), and
   2. For conducting demonstrations under subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)3., F.A.C., means not greater than 0.8 km (1/2 mile), except that the portion of a terrain feature may be considered to be nearby which falls within a distance of up to 10 times the maximum height (Ht) of the feature, not to exceed two miles if such feature achieves a height (ht) 0.8 km from the stack that is at least 40 percent of the GEP stack height determined by the formula provided in sub-subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)2.b., F.A.C., or 26 meters, whichever is greater, as measured from the ground-level elevation at the base of the stack. The height of the structure or terrain feature is measured from the ground-level elevation at the base of the stack.
   (c) "Excessive concentration" is defined for the purpose of determining good engineering practice stack height under subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)3., F.A.C., and means:
   1. For emissions units seeking credit for stack height exceeding that established under subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)2., F.A.C., a maximum ground-level concentration due to emissions from a stack due in whole or part to downwash, wakes, and eddy effects produced by nearby structures or nearby terrain features which individually is at least 40 percent in excess of the maximum concentration experienced in the absence of such downwash, wakes, or eddy effects and which contributes to a total concentration due to emissions from all emissions units that is greater than an ambient air quality standard. For emissions units subject to the prevention of significant deterioration program (40 C.F.R. 52.21 or Rule 62-212.400, F.A.C.), an excessive concentration alternatively means a maximum ground-level concentration due to emissions from a stack due in whole or part to downwash, wakes, or eddy effects produced by nearby structures or nearby terrain features which individually is at least 40 percent in excess of the maximum concentration experienced in the absence of such downwash, wakes, or eddy effects and greater than a prevention of significant deterioration increment. The allowable emission rate to be used in making demonstrations under this part shall be prescribed by the new source performance standard (40 C.F.R. 60) that is applicable to the source category unless the owner or operator demonstrates that this emission rate is infeasible. Where such demonstrations are approved by the Department, an alternative emission rate shall be established in consultation with the owner or operator;
   2. For emissions units seeking credit after October 11, 1983, for increases in existing stack heights up to the heights established under subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)2., F.A.C., either:
   a. A maximum ground-level concentration due in whole or part to downwash, wakes, or eddy effects as provided in subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(c)1., F.A.C., except that the emission rate specified by the State Implementation Plan (or, in the absence of such a limit, the actual emission rate) shall be used; or
   b. The actual presence of a local nuisance caused by the existing stack, as determined by the Department; and
   3. For emissions units seeking credit after January 12, 1979, for a stack height determined under subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)2., F.A.C., where the Department requires the use of a field study or fluid model to verify GEP stack height; for emissions units seeking stack height credit after November 9, 1984, based on the aerodynamic influence of cooling towers; and for emissions units seeking stack height credit after December 31, 1970, based on the aerodynamic influence of structures not adequately represented by the equations in subparagraph 62-210.550(3)(a)2., F.A.C.: a maximum ground-level concentration due in whole or part to downwash, wakes, or eddy effects that is at least 40 percent in excess of the maximum concentration experienced in the absence of such downwash, wakes, or eddy effects.

   62-210.700 Excess Emissions.
   (1) Excess emissions resulting from startup, shutdown or malfunction of any emissions unit shall be permitted providing (1) best operational practices to minimize emissions are adhered to and (2) the duration of excess emissions shall be minimized but in no case exceed two hours in any 24 hour period unless specifically authorized by the Department for longer duration.
   (2) Excess emissions from existing fossil fuel steam generators resulting from startup or shutdown shall be permitted provided that best operational practices to minimize emissions are adhered to and the duration of excess emissions shall be minimized.
   (3) Excess emissions from existing fossil fuel steam generators resulting from boiler cleaning (soot blowing) and load change shall be permitted provided the duration of such excess emissions shall not exceed 3 hours in any 24-hour period and visible emissions shall not exceed Number 3 of the Ringelmann Chart (60 percent opacity), and providing (1) best operational practices to minimize emissions are adhered to and (2) the duration of excess emissions shall be minimized.
A load change occurs when the operational capacity of a unit is in the 10 percent to 100 percent capacity range, other than startup or shutdown, which exceeds 10 percent of the unit's rated capacity and which occurs at a rate of 0.5 percent per minute or more.
Visible emissions above 60 percent opacity shall be allowed for not more than 4, six (6)-minute periods, during the 3-hour period of excess emissions allowed by this subparagraph, for boiler cleaning and load changes, at units which have installed and are operating, or have committed to install or operate, continuous opacity monitors.
   Particulate matter emissions shall not exceed an average of 0.3 lbs. per million BTU heat input during the 3-hour period of excess emissions allowed by this subparagraph.
   (4) Excess emissions which are caused entirely or in part by poor maintenance, poor operation, or any other equipment or process failure which may reasonably be prevented during startup, shutdown, or malfunction shall be prohibited.
   (5) Considering operational variations in types of industrial equipment operations affected by this rule, the Department may adjust maximum and minimum factors to provide reasonable and practical regulatory controls consistent with the public interest.
   (6) In case of excess emissions resulting from malfunctions, each owner or operator shall notify the Department or the appropriate Local Program in accordance with Rule 62-4.130, F.A.C. A full written report on the malfunctions shall be submitted in a quarterly report, if requested by the Department.
