(a) General requirements.
An owner or operator shall submit to the district and
Administrator an application for approval of the construction of a new affected
source, or the modification of an existing source. Each application for
approval of construction or modification shall include at a minimum:
(1) The applicant's name and address;
(2) A notification of intention to construct a new affected
source or make any modification as defined in section93108.5(a)(7);
(3) The address (i.e., physical location) or proposed
address of the source;
(4) An identification of the relevant standard that is the
basis of the application;
(5) The expected commencement date of the construction or
modification;
(6) The expected completion date of the construction or
modification. Facilities undergoing modification shall provide a brief
description of the components that are to be replaced;
(7) The anticipated date of (initial) startup of the
source;
(8) The mixture (100%, 12/88, 8/92 etc.,) and quantity of
ethylene oxide emitted by the source, reported in units and averaging times and
in accordance with the test methods specified in the standard, or if actual
emissions data are not yet available, an estimate of the type and quantity of
ethylene oxide expected to be emitted by the source reported in units and
averaging times specified in the standard. The owner or operator may submit
percent reduction information. Operating parameters, such as flow rate, shall
be included in the submission to the extent that they demonstrate performance
and compliance; and
(9) An owner or operator who submits estimates or
preliminary information in place of the actual emissions data and analysis
shall submit the actual, measured emissions data and other correct information
as soon as available but no later than with the "notification of compliance
status."
(b) Application for construction. Each application shall
include technical information describing the proposed nature, size, design,
operating design capacity, and method of operation of the source, including an
identification of each point of emission for ethylene oxide and a description
of the planned air pollution control system (equipment or method) for each
emission point. The description of the equipment to be used for the control of
emissions shall include the estimated control efficiency (percent) for each
control device. The description of the method to be used for the control of
emissions shall include an estimated control efficiency (percent) for that
method. Such technical information shall include calculations of emission
estimates in sufficient detail to permit assessment of the validity of the
calculations.
(c) Application for modification. Each application shall
include in addition to the information in (a) above of this section the
following:
(1) A brief description of the affected source and the
components that are to be replaced;
(2) A description of present and proposed emission control
systems (i.e., equipment methods) that will be used to comply with the standard
in Table I. The description of the equipment to be used for the control of
emissions shall include the estimated control efficiency (percent) for each
control device. The description of the method to be used for the control of
emissions shall include an estimated control efficiency (percent) for that
method. Such technical information shall include calculations of emission
estimates in sufficient detail to permit assessment of the validity of the
calculations;
(3) An estimate of the fixed capital cost of the
replacements and of constructing a comparable entirely new source; and
(4) The estimated life of the affected source after the
replacement.
