(a)
(1)
				  Owners or operators of closed-vent systems and control devices used to comply
				  with provisions of this chapter shall comply with the provisions of this
				  section.
(2)
(A) The owner or operator of an existing
				  facility who cannot install a closed-vent system and control device to comply
				  with the provisions of this article on the effective date that the facility
				  becomes subject to the provisions of this article must prepare an
				  implementation schedule that includes dates by which the closed-vent system and
				  control device will be installed and in operation. The controls must be
				  installed as soon as possible, but the implementation schedule may allow up to
				  30 months after the effective date that the facility becomes subject to this
				  article for installation and startup.
(B) Any unit that begins operation after
				  December 21, 1990, and is subject to the provisions of this article when
				  operation begins, shall comply with the rules immediately (i.e., shall have
				  control devices installed and operating on startup of the affected unit); the
				  30-month implementation schedule does not apply.
(C) The owner or operator of any facility in
				  existence on the effective date of a statutory or Department regulatory
				  amendment that renders the facility subject to this article shall comply with
				  all requirements of this article as soon as practicable but no later than 30
				  months after the amendment's effective date. When control equipment required by
				  this article cannot be installed and begin operation by the effective date of
				  the amendment, the facility owner or operator shall prepare an implementation
				  schedule that includes the following information: Specific calendar dates for
				  award of contracts or issuance of purchase orders for the control equipment,
				  initiation of on-site installation of the control equipment, completion of the
				  control equipment installation, and performance of any testing to demonstrate
				  that the installed equipment meets the applicable standards of this article.
				  The owner or operator shall enter the implementation schedule in the operating
				  record or in a permanent, readily available file located at the
				  facility.
(D) Owners and operators
				  of facilities and units that become newly subject to the requirements of this
				  article after December 8, 1997, due to an action other than those described in
				  article (a)(2)(C) of this section must comply with all applicable requirements
				  immediately (i.e., must have control devices installed and operating on the
				  date the facility or unit becomes subject to this article; the 30-month
				  implementation schedule does not apply).
