NR 440.07(1)(1)Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this chapter shall furnish the department written notification or, if acceptable to both the department and the owner or operator of a source, electronic notification, as follows:
NR 440.07(1)(a)(a) A notification of the date construction, or reconstruction as defined under s. NR 440.15, of an affected facility is commenced, postmarked no later than 30 days after such date. This requirement does not apply in case of mass-produced facilities which are purchased in completed form.
NR 440.07(1)(c)(c) A notification of the actual date of initial startup of an affected facility, postmarked within 15 days after such date.
NR 440.07(1)(d)(d) A notification of any physical or operational change to an existing facility which may increase the emission rate of any air pollutant to which a standard applies, unless that change is specifically exempted under an applicable section of this chapter or in s. NR 440.14 (5). This notice shall be postmarked 60 days or as soon as practicable before the change is commenced and shall include information describing the precise nature of the change, present and proposed emission control systems, productive capacity of the facility before and after the change, and the expected completion date of the change. The department may request additional relevant information subsequent to this notice.
NR 440.07(1)(e)(e) A notification of the date upon which demonstration of the continuous monitoring system performance commences in accordance with s. NR 440.13 (3). Notification shall be postmarked not less than 30 days prior to such date.
NR 440.07(1)(f)(f) A notification of the anticipated date for conducting the opacity observations required by s. NR 440.11 (5) (a). The notification shall also include, if appropriate, a request for the department to provide a visible emissions reader during a performance test. The notification shall be postmarked not less than 30 days prior to the anticipated opacity observation date.
NR 440.07(1)(g)(g) A notification that continuous opacity monitoring system data results will be used to determine compliance with the applicable opacity standard during a performance test required by s. NR 440.08, in lieu of Method 9 in 40 CFR part 60, Appendix A, incorporated by reference in s. NR 440.17, observation data, as allowed by s. NR 440.11 (5) (f). This notification shall be postmarked not less than 30 days prior to the date of the performance test.
NR 440.07(2)(2)Any owner or operator subject to this chapter shall maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, any malfunction of the air pollution control equipment and any periods during which a continuous monitoring system or monitoring device is inoperative.
NR 440.07(3)(3)Each owner or operator required to install a continuous monitoring device shall submit an excess emissions and monitoring systems performance report (excess emissions are defined in applicable sections) or a summary report form as described in sub. (4), or both, to the department semiannually, except when: more frequent reporting is specifically required by an applicable section; or the department, on a case-by-case basis, determines that more frequent reporting is necessary to accurately assess the compliance status of the source. All reports shall be postmarked by the 30th day following the end of each 6-month period. Written reports of excess emissions shall include the following information:
NR 440.07(3)(a)(a) The magnitude of excess emissions computed in accordance with s. NR 440.13 (8), any conversion factor or factors used, and the date and time of commencement and completion of each time period of excess emissions.
NR 440.07(3)(am)(am) The process operating time during the reporting period.
NR 440.07(3)(b)(b) Specific identification of each period of excess emissions that occurs during startups, shutdowns and malfunctions of the affected facility. The nature and cause of any malfunction, if known, and the corrective action taken or preventative measures adopted.
NR 440.07(3)(c)(c) The date and time identifying each period during which the continuous monitoring system was inoperative except for zero and span checks and the nature of the system repairs or adjustments.
NR 440.07(3)(d)(d) When no excess emissions have occurred or the continuous monitoring system or systems have not been inoperative, repaired or adjusted, such information shall be stated in the report.
NR 440.07(4)(4)The summary report form shall contain the information and be in the format shown in figure 1 unless otherwise specified by the department. One summary report form shall be submitted for each pollutant monitored at each affected facility.
NR 440.07(4)(a)(a) If the total duration of excess emission for the reporting period is less than 1% of the total operating time for the reporting period and CMS downtime for the reporting period is less than 5% of the total operating time for the reporting period, only the summary report form shall be submitted and the excess emissions and monitoring system performance report described in sub. (3) need not be submitted unless requested by the department.
NR 440.07(4)(b)(b) If the total duration of excess emission for the reporting period is 1% or greater of the total operating time for the reporting period or the total CMS downtime for the reporting period is 5% or greater of the total operating time for the reporting period, the summary report form and the excess emissions and monitoring system performance report described in sub. (3) shall both be submitted.
