Section 1144-6.0 - Record Keeping and Reporting

6.1 Record-Keeping Requirements. The owner of a generator shall maintain the following records on the property where the generator is installed, or at such other readily accessible location that the Department approves in writing:

6.1.1 An owner shall monitor the monthly and yearly amounts of fuel, or fuels, consumed by their generators. Yearly fuel consumption shall be calculated and recorded each calendar month by recording (for each fuel) the current calendar month's fuel consumption and adding it to those of the previous eleven consecutive months.

6.1.2 A non-resettable hour metering device shall be used by an owner to continuously monitor the monthly and yearly operating hours for each of their generators. Yearly operating hours shall be calculated and recorded each calendar month by recording the current calendar month's operating hours and adding them to those of the previous eleven consecutive months.

6.1.3 Monthly and yearly operating hours for an emergency generator. Yearly operating hours during which testing or maintenance occurred shall be calculated and recorded each calendar month by recording the current calendar month's testing or maintenance hours and adding them to those of the previous eleven consecutive months. A brief description of each testing or maintenance performed shall also be recorded.

6.1.4 Except as provided for in 6.1.5 of this regulation, for each shipment of liquid fuel (other than liquefied petroleum gas), received for use in a generator, a shipping receipt and certification shall be obtained from the fuel distributor which identifies:

6.1.4.1 the type of fuel delivered; and

6.1.4.2 the percentage of sulfur in the fuel (by weight dry basis), and the method used to determine the sulfur content.

6.1.5 As an alternative to 6.1.4 of this regulation, the owner may have the fuel in the generator's fuel tank certified by a third party laboratory, after each shipment of liquid fuel. This certification shall identify:

6.1.5.1 the type of fuel delivered; and

6.1.5.2 the percentage of sulfur in the fuel (by weight dry basis), and the method used to determine the sulfur content.

6.2 Availability of Records. The owner shall maintain each record required by 6.1 of this regulation for a minimum of five years after the date the record is made. The owner may retain hard copies (e.g., paper) or electronic copies (e.g., compact discs, computer disks, magnetic tape, etc.) of the records. An owner shall promptly provide the original or a copy of a record or records to the Department upon request.
