Thereafter, the owner or operator shall submit to the department semiannually a certification that all of the required inspections have been carried out in accordance with these standards.
NR 440.70(16)(c)(c) Each owner or operator of an affected facility that uses a flare shall submit to the department within 60 days after initial startup, as required under s. NR 440.08 (1), a report of the results of the performance test required in sub. (14) (c).
NR 440.70(16)(d)(d) A report that summarizes all inspections when a water seal was dry or otherwise breached, when a drain cap or plug was missing or improperly installed or when cracks, gaps or other problems were identified that could result in VOC emissions, including information about the repairs or corrective action taken, shall be submitted initially and semiannually thereafter to the department.
NR 440.70(16)(e)(e) As applicable, a report shall be submitted semiannually to the department that indicates:
NR 440.70(16)(e)1.1. Each 3-hour period of operation during which the average temperature of the gas stream in the combustion zone of a thermal incinerator, as measured by the temperature monitoring device, is more than 28°C (50°F) below the design combustion zone temperatures.
NR 440.70(16)(e)2.2. Each 3-hour period of operation during which the average temperature of the gas stream immediately before the catalyst bed of a catalytic incinerator, as measured by the temperature monitoring device, is more than 28°C (50°F) below the design gas stream temperature and any 3-hour period during which the average temperature difference across the catalyst bed (that is, the difference between the temperatures of the gas stream immediately before and after the catalyst bed), as measured by the temperature monitoring device, is less than 80% of the design temperature difference; or
NR 440.70(16)(e)3.3. Each 3-hour period of operation during which the average VOC concentration level or reading of organics in the exhaust gases from a carbon absorber is more than 20% greater than the design exhaust gas concentration level or reading.
NR 440.70(16)(e)4.4. Each occurrence when the carbon in a carbon adsorber system that is not regenerated directly onsite in the control device is not replaced at the pre-determined interval specified in sub. (13) (a) 3. b.
NR 440.70(16)(f)(f) If compliance with the provisions of this section is delayed pursuant to sub. (9), the notification required under s. NR 440.07 (1) (d) shall include the estimated date of the next scheduled refinery or process unit shutdown after the date of notification and the reason why compliance with the standards is technically impossible without a refinery or process unit shutdown.
