Section 20.2.72.305 - GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

All sources permitted pursuant to 20.2.72.300 NMAC - 20.2.72.399 NMAC shall operate in compliance with the following conditions:

A. A copy of the most recent permit issued by the Department shall be made available to Department personnel for inspection upon request. If the permit is not kept at the plant location, a notice at the plant site shall be located in a conspicuous place stating the facility name and ownership, air quality permit number, and the address and phone number of the Department in Santa Fe;

B. The source shall operate in compliance with all applicable state and federal regulations, including federal new source performance standards incorporated by 20.2.77 NMAC and permit conditions;

C. The owner or operator of the source shall be required to conduct such performance tests as specified by the Department to determine compliance with emission limitations or technology requirements as specified in an applicable regulation or permit condition. Specific schedules and requirements will be listed in 20.2.72.306 NMAC for each source class and/or in the permit. Performance test requirements may be reimposed on a source as necessary if inspections of the source or other information available to the Department, indicate noncompliance, or the previous test showed noncompliance or was technically unsatisfactory. In such cases, the Department may reimpose such tests as frequently as necessary until compliance is achieved and testing is performed in a manner technically satisfactory to the Department. The owner or operator shall:

(1) Arrange a pretest meeting with the Department at least two weeks prior to the anticipated test date for all tests;

(2) Notify the Department at least thirty (30) days prior to the date and time of performance testing, and provide the Department an opportunity to have an observer present during testing;

(3) Conduct performance tests in accordance with methods and procedures specified by the Department. Whenever the requirements of 40 CFR 60 apply, test methods must be utilized as specified in those regulations;

(4) Submit a written report to the Department of the results of the test within thirty (30) days from the test date; and

D. The owner or operator using a catalytic converter to meet the requirements of 20.2.72.300 NMAC - 20.2.72.399 NMAC shall satisfactorily test the reduction efficiency across the catalyst bed and report the results of the test to the Department according to the permit conditions, within ninety (90) days following initial start-up and on a quarterly basis thereafter, unless an alternative testing schedule is specified by the Department. The tests shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of Subsection C of 20.2.72.305 NMAC and as required in the permit, except that the requirements of Paragraphs 1 and 2 of Subsection C of 20.2.72.305 NMAC shall be waived unless the Department specifically requests a pretest meeting or notification of the next test date.
