The owner or operator may also be required by the Control Officer to take a sample using an approved procedure and submit the results thereof within a reasonable period of time.
365.16 The Board or the Control Officer may require additional reasonable monitoring be undertaken at any appropriate time to insure compliance with this Regulation.
365.2 A source required by the NWAPA to conduct source emission tests (does not include Relative Accuracy Test Audits) to assess compliance with an air emission standard shall do so under the following provisions:
365.21 A source test plan and scheduled test date shall be submitted to the NWAPA for approval by the Control Officer at least 20 days prior to the actual test date. A previous test plan may be referenced if it has not been altered.
365.22 Any change to the test plan must be approved by the Control Officer prior to the test.
365.23 All tests must be completed as described in the test plan. A source emission test shall not be terminated due to excess emissions or high pollutant concentrations unless approved by the Control Officer.
365.24 The results of each required source emission test shall be submitted to the NWAPA within sixty days of test completion unless prior approval has been granted by the Control Officer.
