This includes periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction. These instances are deviations from the emission limitations in this subpart. These deviations must be reported according to the requirements in §63.9814. On or after [date 181 days after date of publication of final rule in the Federal Register], you must report each instance in which you did not meet each emission limit and each operating limit in this subpart that applies to you.

(2) Before [date 181 days after date of publication of final rule in the Federal Register], consistent with §§63.6(e) and 63.7(e)(1), deviations that occur during a period of startup, shutdown, or malfunction are not violations if you demonstrate to the Administrator's satisfaction that you were operating in accordance with §63.6(e)(1) and your OM&M plan. The Administrator will determine whether deviations that occur during a period of startup, shutdown, or malfunction are violations, according to the provisions in §63.6(e). On or after [date 181 days after date of publication of final rule in the Federal Register], consistent with §§63.9792(b) and 63.9800(d), deviations are not violations if you demonstrate to the Administrator's satisfaction that you were operating in accordance with §63.9792(b) and your OM&M plan.
