CFR /  Title 40  /  Part 63  /  Sec. 63.3532 How do I demonstrate continuous compliance with the

(a) To demonstrate continuous compliance, the organic HAP emission rate for each compliance period, determined according to Sec. 63.3531(a) through (g), must be less than or equal to the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.3490. Alternatively, if you calculate an OSEL for all coating type segments within a subcategory according to Sec. 63.3531(i), the organic HAP emission rate for the subcategory for each compliance period must be less than or equal to the calculated OSEL. You must use the calculated OSEL throughout each compliance period. A compliance period consists of 12 months. Each month after the end of the initial compliance period described in Sec. 63.3530 is the end of a compliance period consisting of that month and the preceding 11 months. You must perform the calculations in Sec. 63.3531(a) through (g) on a monthly basis using data from the previous 12 months of operation.

(b) If the organic HAP emission rate for any 12-month compliance period exceeded the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.3490 or the OSEL calculated according to Sec. 63.3531(i), this is a deviation from the emission limitations for that compliance period and must be reported as specified in Sec. Sec. 63.3510(c)(6) and 63.3511(a)(6).

(c) As part of each semiannual compliance report required by Sec. 63.3511, you must identify the coating operation(s) for which you used the emission rate without add-on controls option. If there were no deviations from the emission limitations, you must submit a statement that the coating operation(s) was (were) in compliance with the emission limitations during the reporting period because the organic HAP emission rate for each compliance period was less than or equal to the applicable emission limit in Sec. 63.3490 determined according to Sec. 63.3531(a) through (g), or using the OSEL calculated according to Sec. 63.3531(i).

(d) You must maintain records as specified in Sec. Sec. 63.3512 and 63.3513.
