Abstract: The proposed rule would allow source owners and operators to petition the Administrator for an extension of the regulatory deadline to conduct performance tests during force majeure events. A force majeure event is an event caused by circumstances beyond the control of the affected facility, its contractors, or any entity controlled by the affected facility that prevents the owner or operator from complying with the regulatory requirement to conduct performance tests within the specified timeframe despite the affected facility's best efforts to fulfill the obligation. Examples of such events are acts of nature, acts of war or terrorism, or equipment failure or safety hazard beyond the control of the affected facility. Source owners and operators would provide a written description of the event and measures taken to minimize the delay to the EPA for approval.
