(D)

A statement that the notification is being submitted in response to the Gasoline Dispensing Facilities NESHAP and identifying the requirements in OAR 340-244-0240 (Emission Standards for Gasoline Dispensing Facilities: Work Practice and Submerged Fill Requirements)(1) through (3) that apply to the owner or operator of a GDF.

(b)

The owner or operator of a GDF must submit a Notification of Compliance Status to EPA’s Region 10 Office and DEQ, as specified in 40 CFR 63.13, within 60 days of the applicable compliance date specified in OAR 340-244-0238 (Emission Standards for Gasoline Dispensing Facilities: Compliance Dates), unless the owner or operator meets the requirements in subsection (1)(c). The Notification of Compliance Status must be signed by a responsible official who must certify its accuracy, must indicate whether the source has complied with the requirements of 340-244-0232 (Emission Standards for Gasoline Dispensing Facilities: Purpose) through 340-244-0252 (Emission Standards for Gasoline Dispensing Facilities: General Provision Applicability), and must indicate whether the facility’s monthly throughput is calculated based on the volume of gasoline loaded into all storage tanks or on the volume of gasoline dispensed from all storage tanks. If the facility is in compliance with the requirements of 340-244-0232 (Emission Standards for Gasoline Dispensing Facilities: Purpose) through 340-244-0252 (Emission Standards for Gasoline Dispensing Facilities: General Provision Applicability) at the time the Initial Notification required under subsection (1)(a) of this rule is due, the Notification of Compliance Status may be submitted in lieu of the Initial Notification provided it contains the information required under subsection (1)(a).
