I.A. Reporting Requirements for Excess Emissions and Permit Deviations
[15A NCAC 2D.0535(f)and 2Q.0508(f)(2)]
"Excess Emissions"-means an emission rate that exceeds any applicable emission limitation or standard allowed by
any rule in Sections .0500, .0900, .1200,or.1400 of Subchapter 2D;or by a permit condition;or that exceeds an
emission limit established in a permit issued under 15A NCAC 2Q.0700. (Note:Definitions of excess emissions
under 2D.1110 and 2D.I I I I shall apply where defined by rule.)
"Deviations"-for the purposes of this condition,any action or condition not in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this permit including those attributable to upset conditions as well as excess emissions as defined above
lasting less than four hours.
Excess Emissions
1. If a source is required to report excess emissions under NSPS(15A NCAC 2D .0524),NESHAPS(15A NCAC
2D.1110 or.I 111),or the operating permit provides for periodic(e.g.,quarterly)reporting of excess emissions,
reporting shall be performed as prescribed therein.
2. If the source is not subject to NSPS(15A NCAC 2D.0524),NESHAPS(15A NCAC 2D.I 110 or.I111),or these
rules do NOT define"excess emissions,"the Permittee shall report excess emissions in accordance with 15A
NCAC 2D.0535 as follows.
a. Pursuant to 15A NCAC 2D.0535,if excess emissions last for more than four hours resulting from a
malfunction,a breakdown of process or control equipment,or any other abnormal condition,the owner or
operator shall:
i, notify the Regional Supervisor or Director of any such occurrence by 9:00 a.m.Eastern Time of the
Division's next business day of becoming aware of the occurrence and provide:
• name and location of the facility;
• nature and cause of the malfunction or.breakdown;
• time when the malfunction or breakdown is first observed;
• expected duration;and
• estimated rate of emissions;
ii. notify the Regional Supervisor or Director immediately when corrective measures have been
accomplished;and
iii. submit to the Regional Supervisor or Director within 15 days a written report as described in 15A
NCAC 2D.0535(f)(3).

NCAC 2D .0535(c)as follows:
1. Any excess emissions that do not occur during start-up and shut-down shall be considered a violation of the
appropriate rule unless the owner or operator of the sources demonstrates to the Director,that the excess
emissions are a result of a malfunction. The Director shall consider,along with any other pertinent infonnation,
the criteria contained in 15A NCAC 2D.0535(c)(1)through(7).
2. 15A NCAC 2D .0535(g). Excess emissions during start-up and shut-down shall be considered a violation of the

The Permittee shall be subject to the following provisions with respect to emergencies:
1. An emergency means any situation arising from sudden and reasonably unforeseeable events beyond the control
of the facility,including acts of God,which situation requires immediate corrective action to restore normal
operation,and that causes the facility to exceed a technology-based emission limitation under the permit,due to

Air Permit 03449T40
Page 51
unavoidable increases in emissions attributable to the emergency. An emergency shall not include
noncompliance to the extent caused by improperly designed equipment,lack of preventive maintenance,careless
or improper operation,or operator error.
2. An emergency constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such technology-
based emission limitations if the conditions specified in 3.below are met.
3. The affirmative defense of emergency shall be demonstrated through properly signed contemporaneous operating
logs or other relevant evidence that include information as follows:
a. an emergency occurred and the Permittee can identify the cause(s)of the emergency;
b. the permitted facility was at the time being properly operated;
c. during the period of the emergency the Permittee took all reasonable steps to minimize levels of emissions
that exceeded the standards or other requirements in the permit;and

emission limitations were exceeded due to the emergency. This notice must contain a description of the
emergency,steps taken to mitigate emissions,and corrective actions taken.

of proof.
5. This provision is in addition to any emergency or upset provision contained in any applicable requirement
specified elsewhere herein.

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:

Page 55
(1) 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.
(2)Prescribe alternate test procedures on an individual basis when he finds that the alternative method is
necessary to secure more reliable test data.
(3)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 2D.2600 has precedence over all other tests.
