5A  Meaning of monitoring and control system

       (1) For this determination, a monitoring and control system for a flare, means a system that consists of:
           (a) a monitoring system that detects the flame of a flare and monitors if the flare is operating at the manufacturer's specifications for the complete combustion of methane; and
           (b) an associated control system that shuts down landfill gas flow to the flare either when no flame is detected or when the flare is not operating at the manufacturer's specifications for the complete combustion of methane.

            Note: An example of a monitoring and control system for a flare is a flare management system that incorporates a UV detection sensor.

       (2) For this determination, a monitoring and control system for a biogas upgrading system is a system that:

           (b) monitors the operation and output of biogas upgrading systems; and
