This or limit on the pressure drop across the baghouse is effective for the duration of this permit, unless revisions are requested by the permittee and approved in writing by the Ohio EPA Northeast District Office. The permittee may request revisions to the permitted limit or range for the pressure drop based upon information obtained during future testing that demonstrate compliance with the allowable particulate emission rate for the controlled emissions unit(s). In addition, approved revisions to the range or limit will not constitute a relaxation of the monitoring requirements of this permit and may be incorporated into this permit by means of a minor permit modification. The permittee shall inspect each mixer when resin is present in the mixing vessel, and record the following information: the date and reason why any required inspection was not performed; the date and all times the mixer cover was not closed over the mixing vessel, when actual mixing is occurring, except when adding materials or changing covers to the mixing vessel; the date and all times the mixer vents were not closed over the mixing vessel, when actual mixing is occurring, except that venting is allowed during additions of materials, or as necessary prior to adding materials or opening the cover for safety; and the date and all times when visible gaps were present in the mixer cover, except that gaps of up to 1 inch are permissible around mixer shafts and any required instrumentation when the mixer cover was properly employed. Reporting Requirements The permittee shall submit quarterly deviation (excursion) reports that identify the following: each period of time (start time and date, and end time and date) when the pressure drop across the baghouse was outside of the range specified by the manufacturer and outside of the acceptable range following any required compliance demonstration; any period of time (start time and date, and end time and date) when the emissions unit(s) was/were in operation and the process emissions were not vented to the baghouse; each incident of deviation described in a (above) where a prompt investigation was not conducted; each incident of deviation described in a prompt corrective action, that would bring the pressure drop into compliance with the acceptable range, was determined to be necessary and was not taken; and each incident of deviation described in a where proper records were not maintained for the investigation and/or the corrective action(s), as identified in the monitoring and record keeping requirements of this permit.
