The owner or operator may make a demonstration under this section in lieu of submitting the information under section 6(d)(2), 7(e)(2), or 7(f) of this rule, only if the demonstration made under this section successfully shows that a source other than the solid waste facility caused the increase or that the increase resulted from error in sampling, analysis, or evaluation. In making a demonstration under this section, the owner or operator shall do the following: (1) Notify the commissioner in writing, within seven (7) days of determining a statistically significant increase at the monitoring boundary, that the owner or operator intends to make a demonstration under this section. (2) Within ninety (90) days, submit a report to the commissioner demonstrating that a source other than the solid waste facility caused the increase or that the increase resulted from error in sampling, analysis, or evaluation. (3) Continue to monitor in accordance with the Phase I monitoring program established under section 6 of this rule or the Phase II monitoring program established under section 7 of this rule as appropriate.
