quality standards in 15A NCAC 02D.0400 to be exceeded at any point beyond the premises on which the source is
located, When controls more stringent than named in the applicable emission standards in this permit are required to
prevent violation of the ambient air quality standards or are required to create an offset,the permit shall contain a
condition requiring these controls.
JJ. General Emissions Testing and Reporting Requirements[15A NCAC 02Q.0508(i)(16)]
Emission compliance testing shall be by the procedures of Section.2600,except as may be otherwise required in Rules
.0524, ,0912, .1110, .1111,or.I415 of Subchapter 02D.If emissions testing is required by this permit or the DAQ or if
the Permittee submits emissions testing to the DAQ to demonstrate compliance,the Permittee shall perform such testing
in accordance with 15A NCAC 02D.2600 and follow the procedures outlined below:
1. The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for air emission testing protocols to be provided to the Director
prior to air pollution testing.Testing protocols are not required to be pre-approved by the Director prior to air
pollution testing.The Director shall review air emission testing protocols for pre-approval prior to testing if
requested by the owner or operator at least 45 days before conducting the test.
2. Any person proposing to conduct an emissions test to demonstrate compliance with an applicable standard shall
notify the Director at least 15 days before beginning the test so that the Director may at his option observe the test.
3. The owner or operator of the source shall arrange for controlling and measuring the production rates during the
period of air testing.The owner or operator of the source shall ensure that the equipment or process being tested is
operated at the production rate that best fulfills the purpose of the test.The individual conducting the emission test
shall describe the procedures used to obtain accurate process data and include in the test report the average
production rates determined during each testing period.
4. Two copies of the final air emission test report shall be submitted to the Director not later than 30 days after
sample collection unless otherwise specified in the specific conditions. The owner or operator may request an
extension to submit the final test report.The Director shall approve an extension request if he finds that the
extension request is a result of actions beyond the control of the owner or operator.
a. The Director shall make the Final determination regarding any testing procedure deviation and the validity of
the compliance test.The Director may:
i. Allow deviations from a method specified under a rule in this Section if the owner or operator of the
source being tested demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Director that the specified method is
inappropriate for the source being tested.
ii. Prescribe alternate test procedures on an individual basis when he finds that the alternative method is
necessary to secure more reliable test data.

Permit Number 06987T11
Page 32
iii. Prescribe or approve methods on an individual basis for sources or pollutants for which no test method is
specified in this Section if the methods can be demonstrated to determine compliance of permitted
emission sources or pollutants.
b. The Director may authorize the Division of Air Quality to conduct independent tests of any source subject to a
rule in this Subchapter to determine the compliance status of that source or to verify any test data submitted
relating to that source.Any test conducted by the Division of Air Quality using the appropriate testing
procedures described in Section 02D.2600 has precedence over all other tests.
