Sec.  63.1455  What reports must I submit and when?



    (a) You must submit each report in paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of this 

section that applies to you.

    (1) You must submit a compliance report semiannually according to 

the requirements in paragraph (b) of this section and containing the 

information in paragraph (c) of this section.

    (2) You must submit an immediate startup, shutdown, and malfunction 

report if you had a startup, shutdown, or malfunction during the 

reporting period that is not consistent with your startup, shutdown, and 

malfunction plan. You must report the actions taken for the event by fax 

or telephone within 2 working days after starting actions inconsistent 

with the plan. You must submit the information in Sec.  63.10(d)(5)(ii) 

of this part by letter within 7 working days after the end of the event 

unless you have made alternative arrangements with the permitting 

authority.

    (b) Unless the Administrator has approved a different schedule under 

Sec.  63.10(a), you must submit each compliance report required in 

paragraph (a) of this section according to the applicable requirements 

in paragraphs (b)(1) through (5) of this section.

    (1) The first compliance report must cover the period beginning on 

the compliance date that is specified for your affected source in Sec.  

63.1443 and ending on June 30 or December 31, whichever date comes first 

after the compliance date that is specified for your source in Sec.  

63.1443.

    (2) The first compliance report must be postmarked or delivered no 

later than July 31 or January 31, whichever date comes first after your 

first compliance report is due.

    (3) Each subsequent compliance report must cover the semiannual 

reporting period from January 1 through June 30 or the semiannual 

reporting period from July 1 through December 31.

    (4) Each subsequent compliance report must be postmarked or 

delivered no later than July 31 or January 31, whichever date comes 

first after the end of the semiannual reporting period.

    (5) For each affected source that is subject to permitting 

regulations pursuant to 40 CFR part 70 or 40 CFR part 71, and if the 

permitting authority has established dates for submitting semiannual 

reports pursuant to 40 CFR 70.6(a)(3)(iii)(A) or 40 CFR 

71.6(a)(3)(iii)(A) of this chapter, you may submit the first and 

subsequent

compliance reports according to the dates the permitting authority has 

established instead of according to the dates in paragraphs (b)(1) 

through (4) of this section.

    (c) Each compliance report must contain the information in 

paragraphs (c)(1) through (3) of this section and, as applicable,

with that official's name, title, and signature, certifying the accuracy 

and completeness of the content of the report.

    (3) Date of report and beginning and ending dates of the reporting 

period.

    (4) If you had a startup, shutdown or malfunction during the 

reporting period and you took actions consistent with your startup, 

shutdown, and malfunction plan, the compliance report must include the 

information in Sec.  63.10(d)(5)(i).

    (5) If there are no deviations from any emission limitations 

(emission limit, operating limit, opacity limit) that applies to you and 

there are no deviations from the requirements for work practice 

standards in this subpart, a statement that there were no deviations 

from the emission limitations, work practice standards, or operation and 

maintenance requirements during the reporting period.

    (6) If there were no periods during which an operating parameter 

monitoring system was out-of-control as specified in Sec.  63.8(c)(7), a 

statement that there were no periods during which the monitoring system 

was out-of-control during the reporting period.

    (7) For each deviation from an emission limitation (emission limit, 

operating limit, opacity limit) and for each deviation from the 

requirements for work practice standards that occurs at an affected 

source where you are not using a continuous monitoring system to comply 

with the emission limitations or work practice standards in this 

subpart, the compliance report must contain the information in 

paragraphs (b)(1) through (4) of this section and the information in 

paragraphs (b)(7)(i) and (ii) of this section. This includes periods of 

startup, shutdown, and malfunction.

    (i) The total operating time of each affected source during the 

reporting period.

    (ii) Information on the number, duration, and cause of deviations 

(including unknown cause, if applicable), as applicable, and the 

corrective action taken.

    (8) For each deviation from an emission limitation (emission limit, 

operating limit, opacity limit, and visible emission limit) occurring at 

an affected source where you are using an operating parameter monitoring 

system to comply with the emission limitation in this subpart, you must 

include the information in paragraphs (b)(1) through (4) of this section 

and the information in paragraphs (c)(8)(i) through (xi) of this 

section. This includes periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction.

    (i) The date and time that each malfunction started and stopped.

    (ii) The date and time that each monitoring system was inoperative, 

except for zero (low-level) and high-level checks.

    (iii) The date, time and duration that each monitoring system was 

out-of-control, including the information in Sec.  63.8(c)(8).

    (iv) The date and time that each deviation started and stopped, and 

whether each deviation occurred during a period of startup, shutdown, or 

malfunction or during another period.

    (v) A summary of the total duration of the deviation during the 

reporting period and the total duration as a percent of the total source 

operating time during that reporting period.

    (vi) A breakdown of the total duration of the deviations during the 

reporting period into those that are due to startup, shutdown, control 

equipment problems, process problems, other known causes, and other 

unknown causes.

    (vii) A summary of the total duration of monitoring system downtime 

during the reporting period and the total duration of monitoring system 

downtime as a percent of the total source operating time during that 

reporting period.

    (viii) A brief description of the process units.

    (ix) A brief description of the monitoring system.

    (x) The date of the latest monitoring system certification or audit.

    (xi) A description of any changes in continuous monitoring systems, 

processes, or controls since the last reporting period.

    (d) If you have obtained a Title V operating permit pursuant to 40 

CFR part 70 or 40 CFR part 71 must report all deviations as defined in 

this subpart in the semiannual monitoring report required by 40 CFR 

70.6(a)(3)(iii)(A) or 40 CFR 71.6(a)(3)(iii)(A). If you submit a 

compliance report pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section along with, 

or as part of, the semiannual monitoring report required by 40 CFR 

70.6(a)(3)(iii)(A) or 40 CFR 71.6(a)(3)(iii)(A), and the compliance 

report includes all required information concerning deviations from any 

emission limitation(including any operating limit), or work practice 

requirement in this subpart, submission of the compliance report is 

deemed to satisfy any obligation to report the same deviations in the 

semiannual monitoring report. However, submission of a compliance report 

does not otherwise affect any obligation you may have to report 

deviations from permit requirements to the permit authority.
