Section 096-125-6 - Recordkeeping RequirementsA.All dry cleaning facilities must keep a copy of the design specifications and operating manual for each dry cleaning system on-site; and keep receipts of perchloroethylene purchases and record in a log the following: 1 The volume of perchloroethylene purchased each month. This number represents the perchloroethylene purchases for a given month.2 The calculated value of the twelve-month rolling total perchloroethylene consumption limit. To calculate the twelve-month rolling total perchloroethylene consumption limit, the owner/operator shall perform the following calculations on the first day of every month: a Sum up the volume of perchloroethylene purchases made in each of the previous 12 months, as recorded in the log.b If no perchloroethylene purchases were made in a given month, then the perchloroethylene consumption for that month is zero gallons.c The highest twelve-month rolling total is the facility's perchloroethylene consumption limit.3 The dates when the dry cleaning system was inspected for leaks in compliance with subsection 5(C) of this Chapter, and the name and location of any dry cleaning system parts where detectable leaks were found.4 The dates of repair and records of written or verbal orders for repair parts to demonstrate compliance with subsection 3(G)(3) of this Chapter.5 The date and monitoring results (temperature sensor or pressure gauge) for compliance with subsection 54(B) of this Chapter.6 The date and gas analyzer monitoring results, if a carbon adsorber is used for compliance with section 3(B),3(C), 3(D), and 3(E).7 The date of desorption and the number of loads between desorption of the carbon adsorber. The log, perchloroethylene receipts, all manufacturer design specifications and operation manuals for each dry cleaning system located at the facility must be maintained on site for at least five (5) years and must be made available to the Department upon request. An owner that operates more than one dry cleaner may store records older than one year from all facilities at one dry cleaner location or at a centralized office located in the State of Maine.
