[Comment: The above exemption applies to units under paragraph (C)(1) of this rule, for any ozone season to which 40 CFR 52.38 applies. Ohio EPA is inserting this language because the United States environmental protection agency will not administer the NOx SIP Call trading program after 2008 (see 40 CFR 51.121(r) or the Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR) program after 2014 (see 40 CFR 51.123(ff)). Ohio will meet the NOx SIP Call obligations for these units through the CSAPR program under 40 CFR 52.38.

Should the United States environmental protection agency eliminate or suspend the CSAPR program, units previously exempted under this paragraph would need to meet the requirements of this chapter following the elimination or suspension of the federal CSAPR program unless replacement is established to address transport under Section 110(c) or Section 126 of the CAA.]

The five-year period for keeping records may be extended for cause, at any time prior to the end of the period, in writing by the director or the administrator. The owners and operators bear the burden of proof that the unit met the restriction on unit operating hours and fuel use.

(iv) The owners and operators and, to the extent applicable, the designated representative of a unit exempt under paragraph (C)(2)(b) of this rule shall comply with the requirements of the NOx budget program concerning all periods for which the exemption is not in effect, even if such requirements arise, or shall be complied with, after the exemption takes effect.

(v) On the earlier of the following dates, a unit exempt under paragraph (C)(2)(b) of this rule shall lose its exemption:

(a) The date on which the restriction on unit operating hours and fuel use described in paragraph (C)(2)(b) of this rule is removed from the unit's federally enforceable permit or otherwise becomes no longer applicable to any control period starting in 2004.

(b) The first date on which the unit fails to comply, or with regard to which the owners and operators fail to meet their burden of proving that the unit is complying, with the restriction on unit operating hours and fuel use described in paragraph (C)(2)(b) of this rule during any control period starting in 2004.

(vi) A unit that loses its exemption in accordance with paragraph (C)(2)(e)(v) of this rule shall be subject to the requirements of this chapter. For the purpose of applying permitting requirements under rule 3745-14-03 of the Administrative Code and applying monitoring requirements under rule 3745-14-08 of the Administrative Code, the unit shall be treated as commencing operation and, if the unit is covered by paragraph (C)(1)(b) of this rule, commencing commercial operation on the date the unit loses its exemption.

(D) Standard requirements.

(1) State program budget.

(a) For EGUs: Ohio's state program budget for EGUs is forty-five thousand four hundred thirty-two tons of NOx for each control period for units under paragraph (C)(1)(a) of this rule. The sum of the total number of tons of NOx emitted from the NOx budget units under paragraph (C)(1)(a) for the control period plus the sum of the NOx emission limitations (in tons) for each EGU unit exempt under paragraph (C)(2) of this rule shall be less than or equal to the state program budget for EGUs.

(b) For non-EGUs: Ohio's state program budget for non-EGUs is four thousand twenty-eight tons of NOx for each control period for units under paragraph (C)(1)(b) of this rule. The sum of the total number of tons of NOx emitted from the NOx budget units under paragraph (C)(1)(b) of this rule for the control period plus the sum of the NOx emission limitations (in tons) for each non-EGU unit exempt under paragraph (C)(2) of this rule shall be less than or equal to the state program budget for non-EGUs.

(i) Unless all NOx budget units under paragraph (C)(1)(b) of this rule are exempt under paragraph (C)(2) of this rule, by May 1 of each year, Ohio EPA will conduct an annual review of actual NOx emissions during the previous control period from all NOx budget units under paragraph (C)(1)(b) of this rule, including any new units, to ensure the total emissions remain below the state program budget for non-EGUs.

(ii) Should the total emissions for the control period exceed the state program budget for non-EGUs, Ohio EPA will, within one year of determining the exceedance of the state program budget, submit a revised state implementation plan to the United states environmental protection agency which compensates for the budget shortfall and ensures the state program budget is met in future years.

(2) Permit requirements.

The owners or operators and, to the extent applicable, the designated representative of each NOx budget unit or NOx budget source shall meet the permit requirements in rule 3745-14-03 of the Administrative Code.

(3) Monitoring requirements.

(a) The owners and operators and, to the extent applicable, the designated representative of each NOx budget source and each NOx budget unit at the source shall comply with the monitoring requirements of rule 3745-14-08 of the Administrative Code.

(b) The emissions measurements recorded and reported in accordance with rule 3745-14-08 of the Administrative Code shall be used to determine compliance with the NOx state program budget under paragraph (D)(1) of this rule.

(4) Record keeping and reporting requirements.

(a) Unless otherwise provided, the owners and operators of a NOx budget source and each NOx budget unit at the source shall keep on site at the source, or at a central location in Ohio for unattended sources, each of the following documents for a period of five years from the date the document is created: (This period may be extended for cause, at any time prior to the end of five years, in writing by the director or the administrator. Records for unattended sources retained at a central location shall be available immediately at the central location upon the request of the director or administrator and within three days following receipt of a written request from the director or administrator.)

(i) Documents demonstrating the designated representative's authority necessary to carry out his or her duties and responsibilities under the NOx budget program on behalf of the owners and operators of the NOx budget source and of each NOx budget unit at the source and certifying that each such owner and operator shall be fully bound by the designated representative's representations, actions, inactions, or submissions and by any decision or order issued to the designated representative by the director, the Administrator, or a court regarding the source or unit, provided that the documents shall be retained on site at the source beyond such five-year period until such documents are superseded because of the selection of a new designated representative.

(ii) All emissions monitoring information, in accordance with rule 3745-14-08 of the Administrative Code.

(iii) Copies of all reports, compliance certifications, and other submissions and all records made or required under the NOx budget program.

(iv) Copies of all documents used to complete a permit application and any other submission under the NOx budget program or to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of the NOx budget program.

(b) The designated representative of a NOx budget source and each NOx budget unit at the source shall submit the reports and compliance certifications required under the NOx budget program, including those under rule 3745-14-04 and rule 3745-14-08 of the Administrative Code.

(5) Liability.

(a) Any person who knowingly violates any requirement or prohibition of the NOx budget program, a permit, or an exemption under paragraph (C)(2) of this rule shall be subject to enforcement pursuant to applicable state and federal law.

(b) Any person who knowingly makes a false material statement in any record, submission, or report under the NOx budget program shall be subject to criminal enforcement pursuant to applicable state and federal law.

(c) No permit revision shall excuse any violation of the requirements of the NOx budget program that occurs prior to the date that the revision takes effect.

(d) Each NOx budget source and each NOx budget unit shall meet the requirements of the NOx budget program.

(e) Any provision of the NOx budget program that applies to a NOx budget source (including a provision applicable to the designated representative of a NOx budget source) shall also apply to the owners and operators of such source and of the NOx budget units at the source.

(f) Any provision of the NOx budget program that applies to a NOx budget unit (including a provision applicable to the designated representative of a NOx budget unit) shall also apply to the owners and operators of such unit. Except with regard to the requirements applicable to units with a common stack under rule 3745-14-08 of the Administrative Code, the owners and operators and the designated representative of one NOx budget unit shall not be liable for any violation by any other NOx budget unit of which they are not owners or operators or the designated representative and that is located at a source of which they are not owners or operators or the designated representative.

(6) No provision of the NOx budget program, a permit application, a permit, or an exemption under paragraph (C)(2) of this rule shall be construed as exempting or excluding the owners and operators and, to the extent applicable, the designated representative of a NOx budget source or NOx budget unit from compliance with any other provision of the applicable, approved state implementation plan, a federally enforceable permit, or the Clean Air Act.

(E) Computation of time.

(1) Unless otherwise stated, any time period scheduled, under the NOx budget program, to begin on the occurrence of an act or event shall begin on the day the act or event occurs.

(2) Unless otherwise stated, any time period scheduled, under the NOx budget program, to begin before the occurrence of an act or event shall be computed so that the period ends the day before the act or event occurs.

(3) Unless otherwise stated, if the final day of any time period under the NOx budget program, except for the control period defined in paragraph (B)(2)(o) of this rule, falls on a weekend or a state or federal holiday, the time period shall be extended to the next business day.
