# §63.7826. How do I demonstrate initial compliance with the emission limitations that apply to me?

- (a) For each affected source subject to an emission or opacity limit in Table 1 to this subpart, you have demonstrated initial compliance if:
  - (1) You meet the conditions in Table 2 to this subpart; and
  - (2) For each capture system subject to the operating limit in [§ 63.7790(b)(1)](/cfr/40/63.7790.md?p=b-1), you have established appropriate site-specific operating limit(s) and have a record of the operating parameter data measured during the performance test in accordance with [§ 63.7824(a)(1)](/cfr/40/63.7824.md?p=a-1); and
  - (3) For each venturi scrubber subject to the operating limits for pressure drop and scrubber water flow rate in [§ 63.7790(b)(2)](/cfr/40/63.7790.md?p=b-2), you have established appropriate site-specific operating limits and have a record of the pressure drop and scrubber water flow rate measured during the performance test in accordance with [§ 63.7824(b)](/cfr/40/63.7824.md?p=b).
- (b) For each existing or new sinter plant subject to the operating limit in [§ 63.7790(d)(1)](/cfr/40/63.7790.md?p=d-1), you have demonstrated initial compliance if the 30-day rolling average of the oil content of the feedstock, measured during the initial performance test in accordance with [§ 63.7824(d)](/cfr/40/63.7824.md?p=d) is no more than 0.02 percent. For each existing or new sinter plant subject to the alternative operating limit in [§ 63.7790(d)(2)](/cfr/40/63.7790.md?p=d-2), you have demonstrated initial compliance if the 30-day rolling average of the volatile organic compound emissions from the sinter plant windbox exhaust stream, measured during the initial performance test in accordance with [§ 63.7824(e)](/cfr/40/63.7824.md?p=e) is no more than 0.2 lb/ton of sinter produced.
- (c) For each emission limitation that applies to you, you must submit a notification of compliance status according to [§ 63.7840(e)](/cfr/40/63.7840.md?p=e).
