(a) "Malfunction" means any sudden, infrequent and not reasonably preventable failure
of a source, process, process equipment, or air pollution control equipment to operate in a
normal or usual manner. Failures that are caused in part by poor maintenance or careless
operation are not malfunctions.

a product to the consumer to gather information concerning the demand for the product.
(c) "Material handling equipment," as referenced in table 31 of R 336.1331, means a
device, contrivance, or equipment used to bag, blend, convey, crush, grind, load, mill, mix,

a permit or order or results in the emission of any toxic air contaminant into the outer air
not previously emitted. An increase in the hours of operation or an increase in the
production rate up to the maximum capacity of the process or process equipment is not

equipment is subject to enforceable permit conditions or enforceable orders that limit the
production rate or the hours of operation, or both, to a level below the proposed increase.
