Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 45, November 8, 2024
Appendix 2 - Application for Construction or Modification

(a) General requirements.

An owner or operator shall submit to the district and Administrator an application for approval of the construction of a new affected source, or the modification of an existing source. Each application for approval of construction or modification shall include at a minimum:

(1) The applicant's name and address;

(2) A notification of intention to construct a new affected source or make any modification as defined in section 93108.5(a)(7);

(3) The address (i.e., physical location) or proposed address of the source;

(4) An identification of the relevant standard that is the basis of the application;

(5) The expected commencement date of the construction or modification;

(6) The expected completion date of the construction or modification. Facilities undergoing modification shall provide a brief description of the components that are to be replaced;

(7) The anticipated date of (initial) startup of the source;

(8) The mixture (100%, 12/88, 8/92 etc.,) and quantity of ethylene oxide emitted by the source, reported in units and averaging times and in accordance with the test methods specified in the standard, or if actual emissions data are not yet available, an estimate of the type and quantity of ethylene oxide expected to be emitted by the source reported in units and averaging times specified in the standard. The owner or operator may submit percent reduction information. Operating parameters, such as flow rate, shall be included in the submission to the extent that they demonstrate performance and compliance; and

(9) An owner or operator who submits estimates or preliminary information in place of the actual emissions data and analysis shall submit the actual, measured emissions data and other correct information as soon as available but no later than with the "notification of compliance status."

(b) Application for construction. Each application shall include technical information describing the proposed nature, size, design, operating design capacity, and method of operation of the source, including an identification of each point of emission for ethylene oxide and a description of the planned air pollution control system (equipment or method) for each emission point. The description of the equipment to be used for the control of emissions shall include the estimated control efficiency (percent) for each control device. The description of the method to be used for the control of emissions shall include an estimated control efficiency (percent) for that method. Such technical information shall include calculations of emission estimates in sufficient detail to permit assessment of the validity of the calculations.

(c) Application for modification. Each application shall include in addition to the information in (a) above of this section the following:

(1) A brief description of the affected source and the components that are to be replaced;

(2) A description of present and proposed emission control systems (i.e., equipment methods) that will be used to comply with the standard in Table I. The description of the equipment to be used for the control of emissions shall include the estimated control efficiency (percent) for each control device. The description of the method to be used for the control of emissions shall include an estimated control efficiency (percent) for that method. Such technical information shall include calculations of emission estimates in sufficient detail to permit assessment of the validity of the calculations;

(3) An estimate of the fixed capital cost of the replacements and of constructing a comparable entirely new source; and

(4) The estimated life of the affected source after the replacement.
