The operator of a facility who is required to report
under section
95101 of this article, and who is
not eligible for abbreviated reporting under section
95103(a), must
comply with Subpart Q of 40 CFR Part 98 (40 CFR §§
98.170 to
98.188) in reporting stationary
combustion and process emissions and related data from iron and steel
production to ARB, except as otherwise provided in this section.
(a)
CO2 from
Fossil Fuel Combustion. When calculating CO
2
emissions from fossil fuel combustion at a stationary combustion unit under
40 CFR §
98.172(a), the operator must
use a method in 40 CFR
§
98.33(a)(1) to §
98.33(a)(4) as
specified by fuel type in section
95115 of this article.
(b)
Monitoring, Data and
Records. For each emissions calculation method chosen under section
95120(a), the
operator must meet the applicable requirements for monitoring, missing data
procedures, data reporting, and records retention that are specified in
40 CFR §
98.34 to §
98.37, except as modified in
sections
95115,
95120(c)-(d), and
95129 of this article.
(c)
Missing Data Substitution
Procedures. The operator must comply with
40 CFR §
98.175 when substituting for missing data,
except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (1)-(2) below.
(1) To substitute for missing data for
emissions reported under section
95115 of this article (stationary
combustion units and units using continuous emissions monitoring systems), the
operator must follow the requirements of section
95129 of this article.
(2) If monthly mass or volume of
carbon-containing inputs and outputs are missing when using the carbon mass
balance procedure in 40 CFR
§
98.173(b)(1), the
operator must apply substitute values according to the procedures in paragraphs
(A)-(B) below.
(A) If the data capture rate is
at least 80 percent for the data year, the operator must substitute for each
missing value based on the best available estimate based on information used
for accounting purposes (such as purchase records).
(B) If the data capture rate is less than 80
percent for the data year, the operator must substitute for each missing value
with the maximum throughput capacity of the system.
(3) The operator must document and retain
records of the procedure used for all missing data estimates pursuant to the
recordkeeping requirements of section
95105.
(d)
Additional Product Data.
In addition to the information required by
40 CFR §
98.176, the operator must report the annual
production of iron and steel products in short tons, a description of the
product(s), and, the process used to produce the products, such as use of an
electric arc furnace.
