The EPA is finalizing amendments which require that that there be no discharge to the atmosphere from any pressure relief device (PRD) on any equipment in HAP service within the process units for the Polymers and Resins IV source category. To ensure compliance with this requirement, facility owners or operators are required to monitor each PRD with equipment that would be able to identify and record the time and duration of each pressure release and notify operators that a pressure release has occurred. In addition to requirements for PRDs, the amendments also provide requirements for equipment leaks and process contact cooling towers (PCCT) for one facility in the PET continuous TPA high viscosity multiple end finisher subcategory. Under the new requirements, this facility must report certain information when a leak is detected for equipment components in gas/vapor or light liquid service. The facility must also report all cases when the ethylene glycol concentration in the PCCT exceeds the standard. Information related to these new provisions is required to be submitted in the semi-annual reports that are already required by the existing Polymers and Resins IV NESHAP. The final amendments also add provisions for facility owners or operators to use if they wish to assert an affirmative defense to avoid civil penalties for exceedances of the applicable standards that are caused by a malfunction. If these provisions are used, the owner or operator is required to meet certain criteria during the malfunction, notify the Administrator of malfunctions that may cause an exceedance of the emissions standards, and submit a report of the malfunction to the Administrator, to include a root cause analysis of the malfunction, within certain timeframes.
