Label appendices as A1, B2, C2, etc. and attach behind Appendix K. Please note that often the
required flexibility is available without creating an alternative scenario. Contact the Operating Permit
Section for more help on this topic.[R307-415-6a(9)]
18.Attach as Appendix D to the application: a description of all potential emissions of air pollutants for
which the source is major; and a description of the potential to emit for all regulated and hazardous air
pollutants from any emissions unit, except for insignificant activities and emissions under
R307-415-5(e). The description needs to be sufficiently detailed to allow determination of applicable
requirements. Definitions are found in R307-415-3(2). The approaches given in EPA’s White Paper
#1 are accepted for this task.
Also include any operational constraints or work practices imposed which limit emissions (these
should be in your Approval Orders or other applicable requirements). All emissions should be in
terms of tons per year (tpy) and any other appropriate units. A sample for each type of calculation
should be included, and should be clearly outlined; identify and include assumptions, emission factor
sources, etc. to allow easy review of your calculations. [R307-415-5c(3)]
19.Include on the site plan required in #13 above the items listed in this box and any others that impact
the creation or dispersion of emissions. For clarity, this may be on a second copy of your site plan.
[R307-415-5c(3)(b)]
20.Attach as Appendix E to the application: a list and description of any units that will be proposed as
insignificant because of size or production rate. [R307-415-5e(z)]
21.Attach as Appendix F to the application: a list of all air pollution control equipment. You may
optionally include the appropriate control equipment forms. See Table 2 of these instructions for a list
of forms. The forms may be obtained from the forms page of the Division web site or by contacting

required of inspectors, etc. for monitoring activities. Include proposed compliance assurance
monitoring protocol in accordance with 40 CFR Part 64, if appropriate. [R307-415-5c(3)(e)]

415-5c(8)(c)]
30.Include with the Compliance Plan (Appendix K): a certification of compliance. This certification
must include a statement concerning the methods used for determining compliance, and address the
monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting and testing methods and requirements. Also include a schedule
for submission of signed compliance certifications on at least an annual basis or on a more frequent
basis if required by another requirement, and a statement indicating the compliance status with any
enhanced monitoring and compliance requirements. Note that this certification of compliance is a
