Sec. 4.
(a) If compliance with section 3(1) or 3(2) of this rule is to be achieved with the application of an add-on control system or systems, the following requirements shall apply:(1) On or before December 31, 1994, the source shall submit to the department a compliance plan containing the following information:(A) A description of the processes that will be controlled.(B) A description of the add-on control systems.(C) A description of the expected control efficiency that will be achieved.(2) A compliance test shall be performed on the add-on control systems according to the schedule and situations described in section 9(4) of this rule. The test results will be used to demonstrate compliance with the applicable emission limit and establish process and control system operating parameters.(3) After August 31, 1995, compliance shall continue to be demonstrated by monitoring the process and control system operating parameters established in the initial compliance test unless the parameters are revised by a subsequent test. Any subsequent test and revision to process and control system operating parameters must be submitted to the department as a revision to the compliance plan and be approved by the department. A copy of the most recent compliance test shall be located at the facility and shall be made available to any department or U.S. EPA inspector upon request.(4) Results of the compliance test required by subdivision (2) shall be submitted to the department on or before September 30, 1995, and shall contain, at a minimum, all of the following: (A) Test methods and procedures.(B) Overall control efficiency.(C) Process operating parameters during the compliance test, including, but not limited to, the following: (iv) Moisture content of process stream.(v) Characteristics of process materials.(vi) Other parameters relevant to the emissions of VOC.(b) If compliance with section 3(1) or 3(2) of this rule is to be achieved through the reduction in the use of VOC containing materials, the owner or operator shall submit a compliance plan on or before December 31, 199Sec. 4.(1) The compliance plan shall contain, at a minimum, all of the following information: (A) The name and address of the source, and the name and telephone number of a company representative.(B) A complete description of the baseline actual emissions.(C) A complete description of the VOC containing materials, such as chemicals, coatings, solvents, and cleaning materials used at the facility with an identification of the VOC containing materials that will be replaced along with a complete description of the replacement materials. The owner or operator shall also include a description of the operations in which the VOC containing materials are used.(D) A comprehensive record keeping and monitoring plan that will be used to insure and demonstrate compliance. The plan must follow the test methods and procedures as described in section 7 of this rule.(2) The owner or operator shall also submit a copy of the approved compliance plan with the source's Part 70 permit application. The Part 70 permit application must be submitted to the department no later than six (6) months, and issued no later than twelve (12) months, from the effective date of Indiana's Part 70 permit program. The department shall incorporate the approved compliance plan into the source's Part 70 permit which shall include specific enforceable permit conditions. These permit conditions shall reflect limits, with no longer than daily averaging, on VOC content of process materials, capture and control efficiencies, or other conditions that will limit VOC emissions and demonstrate compliance with the requirements of this rule. The permit shall also include appropriate test methods that are consistent with the methods incorporated within 326 IAC 8 [this article], and sufficient monitoring record keeping and reporting requirements to assure that information is available to document continuous compliance with the VOC limits. The department will submit a copy of the compliance plan to the U.S. EPA for review. On or after May 31, 1995, the owner or operator shall operate the facility as described in the approved compliance plan unless request by the department to modify the plan as described in section 5 of this rule.(c) If a source intends to comply with section 3(2) of this rule, it shall submit to the department on or before December 31, 1994, for review and approval, documentation demonstrating that ninety-eight percent (98%) control is not reasonably achievable taking into account availability of alternative materials, technical feasibility, cost, and any other factors considered by the source. A demonstration that ninety-eight percent (98%) control is not achieved at similar operations, if any, in other ozone nonattainment areas within the United States is an acceptable demonstration.(d) Owners or operators who elect to comply with section 3(3) of this rule are subject to the following requirements:(1) Compliance shall be achieved with the application of one (1) or more emission reduction systems including, but not limited to, the following: (B) elimination or reduction in use of VOC containing materials; or(2) On or before December 31, 1994, the owner or operator shall submit to the department a compliance plan containing all of the following information: (A) The name and address of the source and the name and telephone number of a company representative.(B) A petition for a site specific RACT control plan developed in accordance with the procedures in 326 IAC 8-1-5.(C) Identification of all VOC emitting facilities along with the description of the purpose each facility serves.(D) A list of the facilities that meet the applicability criteria of section 2(a) of this rule.(E) Baseline actual emissions for each facility identified in clause (D) along with the following information:(i) Maximum design rate, maximum production, or maximum throughput.(ii) Identification, amount, and VOC emission factor of process materials such as coatings, chemicals, and fuels.(F) A complete description of the emission reduction measures that the source intends to implement, the percent VOC reduction to be achieved by these measures, and calculations that demonstrate that the measures will meet the projected VOC reductions described in the source's petition for site specific RACT. The compliance plan shall also describe the expected percentage of overall emission reduction from baseline actual emissions. Supporting documentation such as: (i) a manufacturer's warranty on a control system;(ii) the difference in the VOC emission factor of the baseline coating or process chemicals; or(iii) an increase in transfer efficiency; shall be included.(G) The operation, maintenance, monitoring, and record keeping procedures that will ensure continued compliance.(H) The expected annual VOC emission in tons per year (tpy) after applying the emission reduction systems.(e) Owners or operators who elect to comply with this rule with the application of enforceable permit limits, in accordance with section 2(d) of this rule shall, prior to December 31, 1994, submit an application for a federally enforceable state operating permit (FESOP) in accordance with 326 IAC 2-8. Until such time as 326 IAC 2-8 has been approved by the U.S. EPA, the operating permit will be submitted to the U.S. EPA by the department as a SIP revision. The source shall include as a part of the permit application, the following information:(1) The name and address of the source and the name and telephone number of a company representative.(2) Identification of all VOC emitting facilities together with a description of the purpose each facility serves.(3) A list of facilities that meet the requirements of section 2(a) of this rule.(4) Baseline actual emissions for each facility identified in subdivision (3) along with the following information: (B) Maximum design rate, maximum production, or maximum throughput.(C) Identification, amount, and VOC emission factor of process materials such as coatings, chemicals, and fuels.(5) Identification of facilities for which limitation on hours of operation or limitation on amount of production has been proposed along with the proposed number of hours or amount of production.(6) The monitoring and record keeping procedures that will be used to demonstrate compliance with the limitation on hours of operation or limitations in amount of production.(7) A signed statement providing that the proposed limitation on hours of operation or limitation on amount of production shall be fully implemented prior to or on May 31, 1995. The monitoring and record keeping procedures that will demonstrate compliance with the limitation on hours of operation or limitations in amount of production will be incorporated into the source's operating permit.
(f) The department may approve an extension until February 28, 1995, for any compliance plan, demonstration, or application required by this section, provided the request is received by the department prior to December 31, 1994.
