(2) Within sixty (60) days of performing the seal gap measurements required by section 5(c)(1) of this rule, submit a report to the department that contains the following:
(A) The date of measurement.
(B) The raw data obtained in the measurement.
(C) The calculations described in section 5(c)(2) and 5(c)(3) of this rule.
(3) After each seal gap measurement that detects gaps exceeding the limitations specified in section 5(c) of this rule, submit a report to the department within thirty (30) days of the inspection that includes the following:
(A) The vessel by identification number.
(B) The information specified in subdivision (2).
(C) The date the vessel was emptied or repaired.
(e) The owner or operator of each vessel equipped with a closed vent system with a control device shall comply with the following record keeping and reporting requirements:
(1) An owner or operator that equips the vessel with a control device other than a flare shall do the following:
(A) Submit an operating plan as required by section 5(d) of this rule.
(B) Maintain records of the following:
(i) The operating plan.
(ii) Measured values of the parameters monitored according to section 5(d)(2) of this rule.
(2) An owner or operator that equips the vessel with a closed vent system and a flare shall meet the following requirements:
(A) Keep records of all periods of operation during which the flare pilot flame is absent.
(B) Submit a report to the department:
(i) containing the measurements required by 40 CFR 60.18(f)(1) * through 40 CFR 60.18(f)(5) *, as required by 40 CFR 60.8 *; and
(ii) within six (6) months of the initial start-up date.
(C) Submit a semiannual report to the department of all periods recorded under 40 CFR 60.115b(d)(2) * in which the pilot flame was absent.
(f) The owner or operator of each vessel equipped with a closed vent system and control device meeting the standards of section 4 of this rule is exempt from the requirements of subsections (g) and (h).
(g) Except as provided in subsections (f) and (j), the owner or operator of each vessel with a design capacity greater than or equal to thirty-nine thousand (39,000) gallons storing a VOL with a maximum true vapor pressure greater than or equal to five-tenths (0.5) pound per square inch absolute (psia) but less than seventy-five hundredths (0.75) psia shall maintain a record of the maximum true vapor pressure of the VOL stored in each vessel including the following information:
(1) The type of VOL stored.
(2) The dates of the VOL storage.
(3) For each day of VOL storage, the:
(A) average:
(i) stored temperature for VOLs stored above or below the ambient temperature; or
(ii) ambient temperature for VOLs stored at ambient temperature; and
(B) corresponding maximum true vapor pressure.
(h) Except as provided in subsection (f), the owner or operator of each vessel with a design capacity greater than or equal to thirty-nine thousand (39,000) gallons storing a liquid with a maximum true vapor pressure, as measured in accordance with subsection (f), that is normally less than seventy-five hundredths (0.75) psia shall maintain a record and notify the department within thirty (30) days when the maximum true vapor pressure of the liquid exceeds seventy-five hundredths (0.75) psia.
(i) Available data on the storage temperature may be used to determine the maximum true vapor pressure as follows:
(1) The maximum true vapor pressure for VOLs stored at temperatures above or below the ambient temperature must be calculated based on the highest calendar-month average storage temperature.
(2) The maximum true vapor pressure for VOLs stored at the ambient temperature must be calculated based on the local maximum monthly average ambient temperature, as reported by the National Weather Service.
(3) For other liquids, the maximum true vapor pressure may be determined by any of the following methods:
(A) ASTM Method D2879-10**, Standard Test Method for Vapor Pressure-Temperature Relationship and Initial Decomposition Temperature of Liquids by Isoteniscope.
(B) A reasonably equivalent method approved by the department and U.S. EPA.
(4) Maximum true vapor pressure for VOLs stored at or above ambient temperatures must be determined by using one (1) of the following:
(A) Unless a method is required under clause (C), seventy-three (73) degrees Fahrenheit in Lake and Porter counties.
(B) Unless a method is required under clause (C), seventy-seven and seven-tenths (77.7) degrees Fahrenheit in Clark and Floyd counties.
(C) If required by the department or U.S. EPA, by using:
(i) ASTM Method D323-08**, Standard Test Method for Vapor Pressure of Petroleum Products (Reid Method); or
(ii) a reasonably equivalent method approved by the department and U.S. EPA.
(j) The owner or operator of each vessel storing a waste mixture of indeterminate or variable composition is subject to the following requirements:
(1) Prior to the initial filling of the vessel, the highest maximum true vapor pressure for the range of anticipated liquid compositions to be stored must be determined using the methods described in subsection (i).
(2) For vessels in which the vapor pressure of the anticipated liquid composition is greater than or equal to five-tenths (0.5) psia but less than seventy-five hundredths (0.75) psia, the following tests are required:
(A) An initial physical test of the vapor pressure.
(B) A physical test at least once every six (6) months thereafter using one (1) of the following methods:
(i) ASTM Method D2879-10**, Standard Test Method for Vapor Pressure-Temperature Relationship and Initial

Decomposition Temperature of Liquids by Isoteniscope.

(ii) ASTM Method D323-08**, Standard Test Method for Vapor Pressure of Petroleum Products (Reid Method).
(iii) A reasonably equivalent method approved by the department and U.S. EPA. *These documents are incorporated by reference.
