§45-2A-7. Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements. 7.1. Recordkeeping. 7.1.a. The owner or operator of a fuel burning unit(s) shall maintain records of the operating schedule, and the quality and quantity of fuel burned in each fuel burning unit as specified in paragraphs 7.1.a.1 through 7.1.a.6, as applicable. 7.1.a.1. For fuel burning unit(s) which burn only pipeline quality natural gas, such records shall include, but not be limited to, the date and time of start-up and shutdown, and the quantity of fuel consumed on a monthly basis. 7.1.a.2. For fuel burning unit(s) which burn only distillate oil, such records shall include, but not be limited to, the date and time of start-up and shutdown, the quantity of fuel consumed on a monthly basis and a BTU analysis for each shipment. 7.1.a.3. For fuel burning unit(s) which burn only wood, such records shall include, but not be limited to, the date and time of start-up and shutdown, the quantity of fuel consumed on a daily basis and a quarterly ash and BTU analysis. 7.1.a.4. For fuel burning unit(s) which burn only coal, such records shall include, but not be limited to, the date and time of start-up and shutdown, the quantity of fuel consumed on a daily basis and an ash and BTU analysis for each shipment. 7.1.a.5. For fuel burning unit(s) which burn an alternative fuel(s), such records shall include, but not be limited to, the date and time of start-up and shutdown, and fuel quality analysis as approved by the Director. 7.1.a.6. For fuel burning unit(s) which burn a combination of fuels, the owner or operator shall comply with the applicable recordkeeping requirements of paragraph 7.1.a.1 through paragraph 7.1.a.5. for each fuel burned. 7.1.b. Records of all required monitoring data and support information shall be maintained on-site for a period of at least five (5) years from the date of monitoring, sampling, measurement or reporting. Support information includes all calibration and maintenance records and all strip chart recordings for continuous monitoring instrumentation, and copies of all required reports. 7.2. Exception Reporting. 7.2.a. With respect to excursions associated with measured emissions under Section 4 of 45CSR2, compliance with the reporting and testing requirements under the Appendix to 45CSR2 shall fulfill the requirement for a periodic exception report under subdivision 8.3.b of 45CSR2. 7.2.b. COMS Based Monitoring - In accordance with the provisions of this subdivision, each owner or operator employing COMS as the method of monitoring compliance with opacity limits shall submit a ACOMS Summary Report@ and/or an AExcursion and COMS Monitoring System Performance Report@ to the Director on a quarterly basis; the Director may, on a case-by-case basis, require more frequent reporting if the Director deems it necessary to accurately assess the compliance status of the fuel burning unit(s). All reports shall be postmarked by the thirtieth (30th) day following the end of each calendar quarter. The COMS Summary Report shall contain the information and be in the format shown in Appendix A unless otherwise specified by the Director. 7.2.b.1. If the total duration of excursions for the reporting period is less than one percent (1%) of the total operating time for the reporting period and monitoring system downtime for the reporting period is less than five percent (5%) of the total operating time for the reporting period, the COMS Summary Report shall be submitted to the Director; the Excursion and COMS Monitoring System Performance report shall be maintained on-site and shall be submitted to the Director upon request. 7.2.b.2. If the total duration of excursions for the reporting period is one percent (1%) or greater of the total operating time for the reporting period or the total monitoring system downtime for the reporting period is five percent (5%) or greater of the total operating time for the reporting period, the COMS Summary Report and the Excursion and COMS Monitoring System Performance Report shall both be submitted to the Director. 7.2.b.3. The Excursion and COMS Monitoring System Performance Report shall be in a format approved by the Director and shall include, but not be limited to, the following information: 7.2.b.3.A. The magnitude of each excursion, and the date and time, including starting and ending times, of each excursion; 7.2.b.3.B. Specific identification of each excursion that occurs during start-ups, shutdowns, and malfunctions of the facility; 7.2.b.3.C. The nature and cause of any excursion (if known), and the corrective action taken and preventative measures adopted (if any); 7.2.b.3.D. The date and time identifying each period during which quality- controlled monitoring data was unavailable, except for zero and span checks, and the reason for data unavailability and the nature of the repairs or adjustments to the monitoring system; and 7.2.b.3.E. When no excursions have occurred or there were no periods of quality-controlled data unavailability, and no monitoring systems were inoperative, repaired, or adjusted, such information shall be stated in the report. 7.2.c. Non-COMS Based Monitoring - Each owner or operator employing non-COMS based monitoring shall submit a AMonitoring Summary Report@ and/or an AExcursion and Monitoring Plan Performance Report@ to the Director on a quarterly basis; the Director may, on a case-by-case basis, require more frequent reporting if the Director deems it necessary to accurately assess the compliance status of the fuel burning unit(s). All reports shall be postmarked by the thirtieth (30th) day following the end of each calendar quarter. The Monitoring Summary Report shall be in a format approved by the Director. 7.2.c.1. If the total number of excursions for the reporting period is less than one percent (1%) of the total number of readings for the reporting period and the number of readings missing for the reporting period is less than five percent (5%) of the total number of readings agreed upon in the monitoring plan for the reporting period, the Monitoring Summary Report shall be submitted to the Director; the Excursion and Monitoring System Performance report shall be maintained on-site and shall be submitted to the Director upon request. 7.2.c.2. If the number of excursions for the reporting period is one percent (1%) or greater of the total number of readings for the reporting period or the number of readings missing for the reporting period is five percent (5%) or greater of the total number of readings agreed upon in the monitoring plan for the reporting period, the Monitoring Summary Report and the Excursion and Monitoring Plan Performance Report shall both be submitted to the Director. 7.2.c.3. The Excursion and Monitoring Plan Performance Report shall be in a format approved by the Director and shall include, but not be limited to, the following information: 7.2.c.3.A.
