Section Env-A 705.03 - Determination of Actual Emissions for Use in Calculating Emission-Based Fee
(a) The owner or operator of a stationary source, area source, or device required to pay an emission-based fee shall determine actual annual emissions by using:
(1) Emissions data from a certified gaseous CEM system meeting the requirements of Env-A 808, which includes substitute data in accordance with Env-A 808.12 for each period for which the CEM system did not collect valid data;
(2) Emission factors based on emissions data from the most recently conducted compliance method stack test, as long as that compliance method stack test was conducted under normal operating conditions, and that it was observed and approved by the department pursuant to Env-A 802 or Env-A 809, or by EPA, in conjunction with the operating conditions specified in the permit for the device issued pursuant to Env-A 600;
(3) Emissions calculated from a mass balance of the process, in conjunction with the operating conditions specified in the permit for the device issued pursuant to Env-A 600;
(4) Emission factors based on alternate emissions data guaranteed by the manufacturer of the device, certified by EPA as accurate for the device, or collected during a stack test of an identical device that was not observed by the department, that meets all other acceptance criteria specified in (2), above, in conjunction with the operating conditions specified in the permit for the device issued pursuant to Env-A 600;
(5) AP-42, Fifth Edition, "Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors, Volume I: Stationary Point and Area Sources", published in 1995 by the EPA, as supplemented from 1996 - 2000 and updated from 2001-2009, in conjunction with the operating conditions specified in the permit for the device issued pursuant to Env-A 600; or
(6) Engineering calculations that are representative of the actual emissions generated, in conjunction with the operating conditions specified in the permit for the device issued pursuant to Env-A 600.
(b) A description of the method used for calculating actual emissions shall be submitted to the department with each fee payment.
