(a) Startup and shutdown records. For units subject
to the startup and/or shutdown provisions of §101.222 of this
title (relating to Demonstrations), hourly records must be made of
startup and/or shutdown events and maintained for a period of at least
two years. Records must be available for inspection by the executive
director, the United States Environmental Protection Agency, and any
local air pollution control agency having jurisdiction upon request.
These records must include, but are not limited to: type of fuel burned;
quantity of each type of fuel burned; and the date, time, and duration
of the procedure.
(b) Notification. The owner or operator of a unit subject
to the emission specifications of §117.405(a) or (b) of this
title (relating to Emission Specifications for Reasonably Available
Control Technology) or §117.410(a) of this title (relating to
Emission Specifications for Eight-Hour Attainment Demonstration) shall
submit written notification of any continuous emissions monitoring
system (CEMS) or predictive emissions monitoring system (PEMS) relative
accuracy test audit (RATA) conducted under §117.440 of this title
(relating to Continuous Demonstration of Compliance) or any testing
conducted under §117.435 of this title (relating to Initial Demonstration
of Compliance) at least 15 days in advance of the date of the RATA
or testing to the appropriate regional office and any local air pollution
control agency having jurisdiction.
(c) Reporting of test results. The owner or operator
of an affected unit shall furnish the Office of Compliance and Enforcement,
the appropriate regional office, and any local air pollution control
agency having jurisdiction a copy of any testing conducted under §117.435
of this title and any CEMS or PEMS RATA conducted under §117.440
of this title:
(1) within 60 days after completion of such testing
or evaluation; and
(2) not later than the compliance schedule specified
in §117.9030 of this title (relating to Compliance Schedule for
Dallas-Fort Worth Eight-Hour Ozone Nonattainment Area Major Sources).
(d) Semiannual reports. The owner or operator of a
unit required to install a CEMS or PEMS under §117.440 of this
title shall report in writing to the executive director on a semiannual
basis any exceedance of the applicable emission specifications of
this division and the monitoring system performance. All reports must
be postmarked or received by the 30th day following the end of each
calendar semiannual period. Written reports must include the following
information:
(1) the magnitude of excess emissions computed in accordance
with 40 Code of Federal Regulations §60.13(h), any conversion
factors used, the date and time of commencement and completion of
each time period of excess emissions, and the unit operating time
during the reporting period. For units complying with §117.423
of this title (relating to Source Cap), excess emissions are each
daily period that the total nitrogen oxides (NOX )
emissions exceed the rolling 30-day average or the maximum daily NOX cap;
(2) specific identification of each period of excess
emissions that occurs during startups, shutdowns, and malfunctions
of the affected unit, the nature and cause of any malfunction (if
known), and the corrective action taken or preventative measures adopted;
(3) the date and time identifying each period when
the continuous monitoring system was inoperative, except for zero
and span checks and the nature of the system repairs or adjustments;
(4) when no excess emissions have occurred or the continuous
monitoring system has not been inoperative, repaired, or adjusted,
such information must be stated in the report; and
(5) if the total duration of excess emissions for the
reporting period is less than 1.0% of the total unit operating time
for the reporting period and the CEMS or PEMS downtime for the reporting
period is less than 5.0% of the total unit operating time for the
reporting period, only a summary report form (as outlined in the latest
edition of the commission's Guidance for
Preparation of Summary, Excess Emission, and Continuous Monitoring
System Reports) must be submitted, unless otherwise requested
by the executive director. If the total duration of excess emissions
for the reporting period is greater than or equal to 1.0% of the total
unit operating time for the reporting period or the CEMS or PEMS downtime
for the reporting period is greater than or equal to 5.0% of the total
unit operating time for the reporting period, a summary report and
an excess emission report must both be submitted.
(e) Reporting for engines. The owner or operator of
any gas-fired engine subject to the emission specifications in §117.405
or §117.410 of this title shall report in writing to the executive
director on a semiannual basis any excess emissions and the air-fuel
ratio monitoring system performance. All reports must be postmarked
or received by the 30th day following the end of each calendar semiannual
period. Written reports must include the following information:
(1) the magnitude of excess emissions (based on the
quarterly emission checks of §117.430(b)(7) of this title (relating
to Operating Requirements) and the biennial emission testing required
for demonstration of emissions compliance in accordance with §117.440(h)
of this title, computed in pounds per hour and grams per horsepower-hour,
any conversion factors used, the date and time of commencement and
completion of each time period of excess emissions, and the engine
operating time during the reporting period; and
(2) specific identification, to the extent feasible,
of each period of excess emissions that occurs during startups, shutdowns,
and malfunctions of the engine or emission control system, the nature
and cause of any malfunction (if known), and the corrective action
taken or preventative measures adopted.
(f) Recordkeeping. The owner or operator of a unit
subject to the requirements of this division shall maintain written
or electronic records of the data specified in this subsection. Such
records must be kept for a period of at least five years and must
be made available upon request by authorized representatives of the
executive director, the United States Environmental Protection Agency,
