For each natural gas-powered continuous bleed pneumatic device, owners and operators shall: Maintain a record of the emission flow rate measurement and report annually beginning April 1, 2021, for at least 5 years from the date of each emissions flow rate measurement; Maintain records of the date, location, and manufacturer specifications for each continuous bleed pneumatic device constructed, modified, or reconstructed and report annually beginning April 1, 2021; Maintain records of the manufacturer’s specifications indicating that the device is designed such that natural gas bleed rate is less than or equal to 6 standard cubic feet per hour, if applicable; Maintain records of deviations in cases where the pneumatic device was not operated in compliance with the requirements specified in Regulation .04 of this chapter and report annually beginning April 1, 2021; Maintain purchase orders, work orders, or any in-house or third-party reports produced or provided to the affected facility relating to the device for at least 5 years; and Maintain a record of each continuous bleed pneumatic inspection and any corrective or maintenance action taken for at least 5 years. For each reciprocating natural gas compressor, owners and operators shall: Maintain a record of each rod packing leak concentration measurement found above the minimum leak threshold and report annually beginning April 1, 2021, for at least 5 years from the date of each leak concentration measurement; Maintain a record of each rod packing or seal emission flow rate measurement and report annually beginning April 1, 2021, for at least 5 years from the date of each emissions flow rate measurement; Maintain a record that documents the date(s) and hours of operation a compressor is operated in order to demonstrate compliance with the rod packing leak concentration or emission flow rate measurement in the event that the compressor is not operating during a scheduled inspection for at least 1 calendar year; Maintain records that provide proof that parts or equipment required to make necessary repairs required by this chapter have been ordered; Report annually the cumulative number of hours of operation or the number of months since initial startup or the previous reciprocating compressor rod packing replacement, whichever is later, beginning April 1, 2021; If applicable, submit a statement that emissions from the rod packing are being routed to applicable vapor control system under Regulation .06 of this chapter; Report records of deviations from this chapter that occurred during the reporting period annually, beginning April 1, 2021; and Maintain a record of purchase orders, work orders, or any in-house or third-party reports produced or provided to the affected facility necessary to demonstrate compliance with the delay of repair provisions of this chapter for at least 5 years. Blowdown Events and Reports. Within 90 days of the effective date of this chapter, affected facilities shall submit a blowdown notification plan to the Department for approval of any blowdown event in excess of 1,000,000 standard cubic feet. The blowdown notification plan according to §B(1) of this regulation shall include: The notification format (for example, website, email, robocall, text message, social media announcement, etc.) to local authorities, the Department, and interested parties for blowdown emissions in excess of 1,000,000 standard cubic feet; A public outreach plan to inform interested parties of the availability to be notified of blowdown events in excess of 1,000,000 standard cubic feet; The affected facility’s responsible personnel for blowdown notifications; and A sitemap of the facility with clearly marked designated area(s) for blowdown emissions in excess of 1,000,000 standard cubic feet. For any blowdown event in excess of 1,000,000 standard cubic feet, affected facilities shall make information publicly available in accordance with the facility’s approved blowdown notification plan, including notification to the Department, at least 7 days prior. For any blowdown event in excess of 1,000,000 standard cubic feet that is scheduled less than 7 days prior to the blowdown event, affected facilities shall, as soon as practicable: Make information publicly available in accordance with the facility’s approved blowdown notification plan; and Provide an explanation to the Department of the reason for the blowdown event. For any emergency or unplanned blowdown event in excess of 1,000,000 standard cubic feet, affected facilities shall make information publicly available in accordance with the facility’s approved blowdown notification plan and notify the Department within 1 hour of the emergency or unplanned blowdown event. When safety concerns preclude a facility from providing prior notification of an emergency or unplanned blowdown under §B(5) of this regulation, the facility shall send notice to the Department within 24 hours of the blowdown event indicating the reason(s) why prior notice was not possible. Affected facilities shall report the following information to the Department of blowdown emissions in excess of 50 cubic feet within the facility’s fence line annually by April 1 of each year: Date and type (that is, planned or emergency) of each blowdown event; Methane emissions in metric tons released from each blowdown event; and Annual methane emissions in metric tons from all blowdown events. Methane emissions shall be calculated according to procedures in 40 CFR Part 98, Subpart W, §98.233. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reporting. Owners and operators of affected facilities shall report methane, carbon dioxide, and nitrous oxide mass emissions to the Department annually by April 1 of each year. Owners and operators of affected facilities shall follow the procedures for emission calculation, monitoring, quality assurance, missing data, record keeping, and reporting that are specified in 40 CFR Part 98, Subpart C, and 40 CFR Part 98, Subpart W. When reporting to the Department, owners and operators of affected facilities shall expand the fugitive emissions reporting requirements of 40 CFR Part 98, Subpart W, to include a Microsoft Excel format list providing calculations summarized by category under 40 CFR §98.232(e)—(h) as applicable. The reporting threshold in 40 CFR §§98.2, 98.31 and 98.231 of 25,000 metric tons of CO2 equivalent does not exempt an affected facility from following the requirements of this section. All required reports shall be submitted to the Industrial Compliance Division in written or electronic format and mailed to Maryland Department of the Environment, Air Quality Compliance Program, 1800 Washington Boulevard, 7th Floor, Baltimore, MD 21230, Attention: Industrial Compliance Division.
