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 2D
.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 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.

Permit 03085T29
Page 30
a. The Director shall make the final determination regarding any testing procedure deviation and
the validity of the compliance test. The Director may:
(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.
