Or. Admin. R. 340-244-0234 - Affected Sources
(1) The
affected source to which the emission standards apply is each GDF. The affected
source includes each gasoline cargo tank during the delivery of product to a
GDF and also includes each storage tank.
(2) The emissions standards in OAR
340-244-0236
through
340-244-0252
do not apply to agricultural operations as defined in ORS 468A.020.
Agricultural operations are however required to comply with the Gasoline
Dispensing NESHAP, if applicable (40 CFR part 63 subpart CCCCCC).
(3) All GDFs must comply with the
requirements of OAR
340-244-0240.
(4) The owner or operator of a GDF
must comply with the requirements of OAR
340-244-0242
for the following gasoline storage tanks:
(a)
All tanks with a capacity of 250 gallons or more located at GDFs:
(A) Whose annual throughput is480,000 gallons
of gasoline or more;
(B) Whose
monthly throughput is 100,000 gallons of gasoline or more; or
(C) In Clackamas, Multnomah, or Washington
County whose annual throughput is 120,000 gallons of gasoline or more.
(b) All tanks with a
capacity of 1,500 gallons or more located at GDFs in the Portland AQMA, Medford
AQMA, or Salem-Keizer in the SKATS.
(5) The owner or operator of a GDF must
comply with the requirements of OAR
340-244-0242(4)
for any gasoline storage tank equipped with a vapor balance system.
(6) An affected source must, upon request by
DEQ or the EPA Administrator, demonstrate its annual or monthly throughput. For
new or reconstructed affected sources, as specified in OAR
340-244-0236(2)
and (3), recordkeeping to document monthly
throughput must begin upon startup of the affected source . For existing
sources, as specified in
340-244-0236(4),
recordkeeping to document monthly throughput must begin on January 10, 2008.
For existing sources that are subject only because they load gasoline into fuel
tanks other than those in motor vehicles, as defined in
340-244-0030,
recordkeeping to document monthly throughput must begin on Jan. 24, 2011.
Records required under this section must be kept for a period of 5 years.
(7) The owner or operator of an
affected source, as defined in section (1), is not required to obtain an Oregon
Title V Operating Permit as a result of being subject to OAR
340-244-0236
through
340-244-0252.
However, the owner or operator of an affected source must still apply for and
obtain an Oregon Title V Operating Permit if meeting one or more of the
applicability criteria found in
340-218-0020.
(8) The loading of aviation
gasoline storage tanks at airports, and the subsequent transfer of aviation
gasoline within the airport, is not subject to OAR
340-244-0236
through
340-244-0252,
except in the Portland AQMA, Medford AQMA, Salem-Keizer in the SKATS, and
Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington Counties. In these geographic areas,
aviation gasoline is subject to
340-244-0236
through
340-244-0252.
(9) Monthly throughput is the
total volume of gasoline loaded into, or dispensed from, all the gasoline
storage tanks located at a single affected GDF. If an area source has two or
more GDFs at separate locations within the area source , each GDF is treated as
a separate affected source .
(10)
If the affected source 's throughput ever exceeds an applicable throughput
threshold, the affected source will remain subject to the requirements for
sources above the threshold, even if the affected source throughput later falls
below the applicable throughput threshold.
(11) The dispensing of gasoline from a fixed
gasoline storage tank at a GDF into a portable gasoline tank for the on-site
delivery and subsequent dispensing of the gasoline into the fuel tank of a
motor vehicle or other gasoline-fueled engine or equipment used within the area
source is only subject to OAR
340-244-0240(1).
(12) For any affected source
subject to the provisions of OAR
340-244-0232 through
340-244-0252
and another federal rule, the owner or operator may elect to comply only with
the more stringent provisions of the applicable rules. The owner or operator of
an affected source must consider all provisions of the rules, including
monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting. The owner or operator of an affected
source must identify the affected source and provisions with which the owner or
operator of an affected source will comply in the Notification of Compliance
Status required under
340-244-0246. The
owner or operator of an affected source also must demonstrate in the
Notification of Compliance Status that each provision with which the owner or
operator of an affected source will comply is at least as stringent as the
otherwise applicable requirements in
340-244-0232 through
340-244-0252.
The owner or operator of an affected source is responsible for making accurate
determinations concerning the more stringent provisions, and noncompliance with
this rule is not excused if it is later determined that your determination was
in error, and, as a result, the owner or operator of an affected source is
violating
340-244-0232 through
340-244-0252.
Compliance with this rule is the owner 's or operator's responsibility and the
Notification of Compliance Status does not alter or affect that responsibility.
