Sec. 7.
(a) Every owner or operator of a unit operation or batch process train that is exempt from the control requirements in section 1(c)(2)(A) or 1(c)(2)(B) of this rule shall keep records of the uncontrolled total annual mass emissions for such unit operation or batch process train, as applicable, and documentation verifying these values or measurements. The documentation shall include the engineering calculations, any measurements made in accordance with section 5 of this rule, and the potential or permitted number of batch cycles per year or, in the alternative, total production as represented in the permit pertaining to the unit operation or batch process train.(b) Every owner or operator of a unit operation or batch process train that is exempt from control requirements of section 1(c)(2) of this rule shall keep the following records: (1) The uncontrolled total annual mass emissions and documentation verifying these values or measurements. The documentation shall include any engineering calculations, any measurements made in accordance with section 5 of this rule, and the potential or permitted number of batch cycles per year or, in the alternative, total production as represented in the permit pertaining to the unit operation or batch process train.(2) The average flow rate in scfm and documentation verifying this value.(3) The calculated weighted average volatility and documentation verifying this value.(4) The calculated applicability flow rate value from section 1(e)(3) of this rule.(c) Every owner or operator of a batch process train or unit operation subject to the control requirements of section 3 of this rule shall keep records of the following parameters required to be monitored under section 6 of this rule:(1) If using a thermal or catalytic incinerator to comply with section 3 of this rule, records indicating the average combustion chamber temperature of the incinerator (or the average temperature upstream and downstream of the catalyst bed for a catalytic incinerator) measured continuously and averaged over the same time period as the compliance test that demonstrated compliance.(2) If using a flare, either steam-assisted, air-assisted, or nonassisted, to comply with section 3 of this rule, continuous records of the flare pilot flame monitoring and records of all periods of operations during which the pilot flame is absent.(3) If using any of the following as a control device, the following records:(A) Where a scrubber is used, the exit specific gravity (or alternative parameter equivalent in ability to measure the degree of absorbing liquid saturation, if approved by the commissioner) and the average exit temperature of the absorbing liquid, measured continuously and averaged over the same time period as the compliance test that demonstrated compliance (both measured while the vent stream is routed normally).(B) Where a condenser is used, the average exit (product side) temperature measured continuously and averaged over the same time period as the compliance test that demonstrated compliance while the vent stream is routed normally.(C) Where a carbon adsorber is used, the total steam mass flow measured continuously and averaged over the same time period as the compliance test that demonstrated compliance (full carbon bed cycle), temperature of the carbon bed after regeneration (and within fifteen (15) minutes after completion of any cooling cycle or cycles), and duration of the carbon bed steaming cycle (all measured while the vent stream is routed normally).(D) As an alternative to clause (A), (B), or (C), at a minimum, records indicating the concentration level or reading indicated by the VOC monitoring device at the outlet of the scrubber, condenser, or carbon adsorber, measured continuously and averaged over the same time period as the compliance test that demonstrated compliance (while the vent stream is routed normally).(d) Every owner or operator of a unit operation claiming a vent stream concentration exemption level, as set forth in section 1(d)(1) of this rule, shall:(1) maintain records to indicate the vent stream concentration is less than or equal to five hundred (500) ppmv; and(2) notify the commissioner in writing if the vent stream concentration at any time equals or exceeds five hundred (500) ppmv, within sixty (60) days after the event. The notification shall include a copy of all records of the event.
(e) An owner or operator of a batch process train or unit operation subject to the control requirements of section 3 of this rule may maintain alternative records other than those listed in section 1 of this rule. Any alternative record keeping shall be:(1) approved by the commissioner and U.S. EPA in writing; and(2) contained in the permit pertaining to the batch process train or unit operation as federally enforceable permit conditions.(f) The owner or operator of a unit operation or batch process train that is exempt from the control requirements of section 3 of this rule shall notify the commissioner in writing if the uncontrolled total annual mass emissions from such unit operation or batch process train exceed the threshold in section 1(c)(2)(A) or 1(c)(2)(B) of this rule, respectively, within sixty (60) days after the event occurs. The notification shall include a copy of all records of the event.(g) Every owner or operator of a batch process train or unit operation required to keep records under this rule shall:(1) maintain the records at the source for a minimum period of five (5) years; and(2) make the records available to the commissioner upon request.Air Pollution Control Board; 326 IAC 8-19-7; filed Nov 3, 2009, 3:32 p.m.: 20091202-IR-326090222FRA
