(a) Any person affected by a control requirement and/or emission specification of this chapter may request approval of an alternate means of control (AMOC) plan using the procedures established in §115.913 of this title (relating to Procedures for Alternate Means of Control Plan Submittal). Such AMOC plan shall be approved if it is demonstrated that the plan meets all applicable criteria and procedures of §§115.911 - 115.913, 115.915, and 115.916 of this title (relating to Criteria for Approval of Alternate Means of Control Plans; Calculations for Determining Alternate Means of Control Reductions; Procedures for Alternate Means of Control Plan Submittal; Public Notice Format; and Review of Approved Alternate Means of Control Plans and Termination of Alternate Means of Control Plans). The AMOC plans not satisfying the requirements of this division (relating to Alternate Means of Control) may apply for a site-specific State Implementation Plan revision approved by the executive director and EPA.

(b) An AMOC applicant may apply to the executive director for a waiver of portions of §115.913 of this title which may not apply to a single-source AMOC application and for §115.914 and §115.915 of this title (relating to Procedures for an Alternate Means of Control Plan Approval; and Public Notice Format). A single-source AMOC application is one that proposes only the substitution of one control device for another.

(c) Application for an AMOC plan does not stay enforcement of regulations of this chapter.

(d) Any violation of an AMOC plan shall be subject to enforcement action as a violation of this chapter.
