(2) You will operate the air emission controls according to the requirements in § 63.962(b)(5).

(3) You have performed an initial visual inspection of each individual drain system according to the requirements in § 63.964(a), and you have records documenting the inspection results.

(c) You must demonstrate initial compliance of each transfer system using covers according to § 63.7915(c)(1) if you have submitted as part of your notification of compliance status, specified in § 63.7950, a signed statement that you have met the requirements in paragraphs (c)(1) through (3) of this section.

(2) You have performed an initial inspection of the entire transfer system to verify that all joints or seams between the pipe sections are permanently or semi-permanently sealed (e.g., a welded joint between two sections of metal pipe or a bolted and gasketed flange), and you have records documenting the inspection results.

(e) You must demonstrate initial compliance of each transfer system that is enclosed and vented to a control device according to § 63.7915(e)(3) if you have submitted as part of your notification of compliance status, specified in § 63.7950, a signed statement that you have met the requirements in paragraphs (e)(1) and (2) of this section.

(1) You have installed a transfer system that is designed and operated such that an internal pressure in the vapor headspace in the enclosure is maintained at a level less than atmospheric pressure when the control device is operating, and you have records documenting the design and installation.

(2) You have met each applicable requirement for demonstrating initial compliance with the emission limitations and work practice standards for a closed vent system and control device in § 63.7926.
