NR 664.1033 (1) (b), an implementation schedule that includes dates by which the closed-vent system and control device will be installed and in operation. The schedule shall also include a rationale of why the installation cannot be completed at an earlier date. The implementation schedule shall be in the facility operating record by the effective date that the facility becomes subject to this subchapter.

NR 664.1035(2)(b) (b) Up-to-date documentation of compliance with the process vent standards in s. NR 664.1032, including all of the following:

NR 664.1035(2)(b)1. 1. Information and data identifying all affected process vents, annual throughput and operating hours of each affected unit, estimated emission rates for each affected vent and for the overall facility (i.e., the total emissions for all affected vents at the facility) and the approximate location within the facility of each affected unit (e.g., identify the hazardous waste management units on a facility plot plan).

NR 664.1035(2)(b)2. 2. Information and data supporting determinations of vent emissions and emission reductions achieved by add-on control devices based on engineering calculations or source tests. For the purpose of determining compliance, make determinations of vent emissions and emission reductions using operating parameter values (e.g., temperatures, flow rates or vent stream organic compounds and concentrations) that represent the conditions that result in maximum organic emissions, such as when the waste management unit is operating at the highest load or capacity level reasonably expected to occur.
