Section 116.127 - Actual to Projected Actual and Emissions Exclusion Test for Emissions(a) If projected actual emissions are used or emissions are excluded from the emission increase resulting from the project, the owner or operator shall document and maintain a record of the following information before beginning construction, and this information must be provided as part of the notification, certification, registration, or application submitted to the executive director to claim or apply for state new source review authorization for the project. If the emissions unit is an existing electric utility steam generating unit, the owner or operator shall provide a copy of this information to the executive director before beginning actual construction: (1) a description of the project;(2) identification of the facilities of which emissions of a federally regulated new source review pollutant could be affected by the project; and(3) a description of the applicability test used to determine that the project is not a major modification for any pollutant, including the baseline actual emissions, the projected actual emissions, the amount of emissions excluded from the project emissions increase and an explanation for why such amount was excluded, and any netting calculations, if applicable.(b) If projected actual emissions are used to determine the project emission increase at a facility, the owner or operator shall monitor the emissions of any regulated new source review pollutant that could increase as a result of the project at that facility and calculate and maintain a record of the annual emissions from that facility, in tons per year, on a calendar year basis for:(1) a period of five years following resumption of regular operations after the change; or(2) a period of ten years following resumption of regular operations after the change if the project increases the design capacity or potential to emit of that regulated new source review pollutant at that facility.(c) If the facility is an electric utility steam generating unit, the owner or operator shall submit a report to the executive director within 60 days after the end of each calendar year of which records must be maintained documenting the unit's annual emissions during the calendar year that preceded submission of the report.(d) If the facility is not an electric utility steam generating unit, the owner or operator shall submit a report to the executive director if the annual emissions from the project exceed the baseline actual emissions by a significant amount for that pollutant, and the emissions exceed the preconstruction projection for any facility. The report shall be submitted to the executive director within 60 days after the end of each calendar year. The report shall contain: (1) the name, address, and telephone number of the major stationary source; and(2) the calculated actual annual emissions.(e) The owner or operator of the facility shall make the information required to be documented and maintained by this section available for review upon request for inspection by the executive director, local air pollution control program, and the general public.30 Tex.
