				level at which the source will be able, as indicated by the performance and
				opacity tests, to meet the opacity standard at all times during which the
				source is meeting the mass or concentration emission standard and during which
				the facility and air pollution equipment is being operated properly and
				maintained to minimize the opacity of emissions and mass emission

"smokeless flare"
means a flare designed for and
				operated with no visible emissions except for periods not to exceed a total of
				5 minutes during any 2 consecutive hours.
(ii) Each flare subject to Chapter 3, Section
				 6(b) must be equipped and operated with an automatic igniter or a continuous
				burning pilot which must be maintained in good working order.
