9 Va. Admin. Code § 5-40-50 - Notification, records and reporting
A. Any owner of an existing source subject to
the provisions of this chapter shall provide written notifications to the board
of the following:
1. The date upon which
demonstration of the continuous monitoring system performance begins in
accordance with
9VAC5-40-40 C. Notification shall
be postmarked not less than 30 days prior to such date.
2. The date of any emission test the owner
wishes the board to consider in determining compliance with a standard.
Notification shall be postmarked not less than 30 days prior to such
date.
3. The anticipated date for
conducting the opacity observations required by
9VAC5-40-20 G 1. The notification
shall also include, if appropriate, a request for the board to provide a
visible emissions reader during an emission test. The notification shall be
postmarked not less than 30 days prior to such date.
B. Any owner of an existing source subject to
the provisions of
9VAC5-40-40 A shall maintain
records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown or malfunction
in the operation of such source; any malfunction of the air pollution control
equipment; or any periods during which a continuous monitoring system or
monitoring device is inoperative.
C. Each owner required to install a
continuous monitoring system (CMS) or monitoring device shall submit a written
report of excess emissions (as defined in the applicable emission standard) and
either a monitoring systems performance report or a summary report form, or
both, to the board semiannually, except when (i) more frequent reporting is
specifically required by an applicable emission standard or the CMS data are to
be used directly for compliance determination, in which case quarterly reports
shall be submitted; or (ii) the board, on a case-by-case basis, determines that
more frequent reporting is necessary to accurately assess the compliance status
of the source. The summary report and form shall meet the requirements of
40 CFR
60.7(d). The frequency of
reporting requirements may be reduced as provided in
40 CFR
60.7(e). All reports shall
be postmarked by the 30th day following the end of each calendar half (or
quarter, as appropriate). Written reports of excess emissions shall include the
following information:
1. The magnitude of
excess emissions computed in accordance with
9VAC5-40-41 B 6, any conversion
factors used, and the date and time of commencement and completion of each
period of excess emissions. The process operating time during the reporting
period.
2. Specific identification
of each period of excess emissions that occurs during startups, shutdowns and
malfunctions of the source. The nature and cause of any malfunction (if known),
the corrective action taken or preventative measures adopted.
3. The date and time identifying each period
during which the continuous monitoring system was inoperative except for zero
and span checks and the nature of the system repairs or adjustments.
4. When no excess emissions have occurred or
the continuous monitoring systems have not been inoperative, repaired or
adjusted, such information shall be stated in the report.
D. Any owner of an existing source subject to
the provisions of this chapter shall maintain a file of all measurements,
including continuous monitoring system, monitoring device, and emission testing
measurements; all continuous monitoring system performance evaluations; all
continuous monitoring system or monitoring device calibration checks;
adjustments and maintenance performed on these systems or devices; and all
other information required by this chapter recorded in a permanent form
suitable for inspection. The file shall be retained for at least two years
(unless a longer period is specified in the applicable standards) following the
date of such measurements, maintenance, reports and records.
E. Any data or information required by the
Regulations for the Control and Abatement of Air Pollution, any permit or order
of the board, or which the owner wishes the board to consider, to determine
compliance with an emission standard shall be recorded or maintained in a time
frame consistent with the averaging period of the standard.
F. The owner of a stationary source shall
keep records as may be necessary to determine its emissions. Any owner claiming
that a facility is exempt from the provisions of the Regulations for the
Control and Abatement of Air Pollution shall keep records as may be necessary
to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the board its continued exempt
status.
G. The owner of an existing
source subject to any emission standard in Article 26 (9VAC5-40-3560 et seq.) through
Article 36 (9VAC5-40-5060 et seq.) of 9VAC5
Chapter 40 shall maintain records in accordance with the applicable procedure
in 9VAC5-20-121.
H. Upon request of the board, the owner of an
existing source subject to the provisions of this chapter shall provide
notifications and report, revise reports, maintain records or report emission
test or monitoring result in a manner and form and using procedures acceptable
to board.
