(a) For each sulfur dioxide emitting
unit at a WEB source the WEB source shall comply with the following, as
applicable, to monitor and record sulfur dioxide mass emissions.
(i) If a unit is subject to 40 CFR Part 75
under a requirement separate from the WEB Trading Program, the unit shall meet
the requirements contained in Part 75 with respect to monitoring, recording and
reporting sulfur dioxide mass emissions.
(ii) If a unit is not subject to 40 CFR Part
75 under a requirement separate from the WEB Trading Program, a unit shall use
one of the following monitoring methods, as applicable:
(A) a continuous emission monitoring system
(CEMS) for sulfur dioxide and flow that complies with all applicable monitoring
provisions in 40 CFR Part 75;
(B)
if the unit is a gas- or oil-fired combustion device, the excepted monitoring
methodology in Appendix D to 40 CFR Part 75, or, if applicable, the low mass
emissions (LME) provisions (with respect to sulfur dioxide mass emissions only)
of
40
CFR 75.19;
(C) one of the optional WEB protocols, if
applicable, in Appendix B of State Implementation Plan Section XX, Regional
Haze; or
(D) a petition for
site-specific monitoring that the source submits for approval by the director
and approval by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in accordance with
R307-250-9(9).
(iii) A
permanently retired unit shall not be required to monitor under this section if
such unit was permanently retired and had no emissions for the entire control

R307-250-12(2)
that these conditions were met.
(b) Notwithstanding (a) above, a WEB source
with a unit that meets one of the conditions of (i) below may submit a request
to the director to have the provisions of this subsection (b) apply to that
unit.
(i) Any of the following units may
implement this subsection (b):

(b), the account representative shall submit a notice to request that this
subsection (b) apply to one or more sulfur dioxide emitting units at a WEB
source. The notice shall be submitted in accordance with the deadlines
specified in R307-250-9(6)(a), and shall include the following information (in

by a monitoring system certified and operating in accordance with R307-250,
missing or invalid data shall be replaced with substitute data in accordance
with 40 CFR Part 75 or, if the WEB source is subject to a WEB protocol in
Appendix B of State Implementation Plan Section XX, with substitute data in
accordance with that Appendix.

first control period for which the unit is subject to the WEB Trading Program,
the WEB source shall use one of the following procedures.
(i) If the WEB source will use a continuous
emissions monitoring system to comply with this Section, substitute the maximum
potential concentration of sulfur dioxide for the unit and the maximum
potential flow rate, as determined in accordance with 40 CFR Part 75. The
procedures for conditional data validation under section 75.20(b)(3) may be
used for any monitoring system under this Rule that uses these 40 CFR Part 75
procedures, as applicable.
(ii) If
the WEB source will use the 40 CFR Part 75 Appendix D methodology, substitute
the maximum potential sulfur content, density or gross calorific value for the
fuel and the maximum potential fuel flow rate, in accordance with section 2.4
of Appendix D to 40 CFR Part 75.
(iii) If the WEB source will use the 40 CFR
Part 75 methodology for low mass emissions units, substitute the sulfur dioxide
emission factor required for the unit as specified in
40
CFR 75.19 and the maximum rated hourly heat
input, as defined in
40
CFR 72.2.
(iv) If using a protocol in Appendix B of
State Implementation Plan Section XX, follow the procedures in the applicable
