b)         Calculate the equivalent overall capture and control efficiency of the control device using the procedures of Section 218.105(c), (d), and (e) of this Part.

c)         Demonstrate that the equivalent overall capture and control efficiency calculated using the procedures in Section 218.105(c), (d), and (e) of this Part is equal to or greater than the largest value of R calculated for each coating by the equation in subsection (a) of this Section.

d)         Install, calibrate, operate, and maintain the applicable monitoring equipment for the control device as specified in Section 218.105(d) of this Part.

e)         On and after March 15, 1998, or on and after the initial start-up date, the owner or operator of a source electing to rely on this Section to comply with the requirements of this Subpart shall, for each coating line relying on this Section, collect and record the following information on a daily basis and maintain the information at the source for a period of three years:

2)         The weight of VOM per weight of solids (kg VOM/kg solids) of each coating as applied on each coating line on a daily basis;

3)         Certified product data sheets for each coating;

4)         Control device monitoring data;

5)         A log of operating time for the capture system, control device, monitoring equipment and the associated coating line; and

6)         A maintenance log for the capture system, control device and monitoring equipment detailing all routine and non-routine maintenance performed including dates and duration of any outages.

f)         On and after March 15, 1998, or on and after the initial start-up date, the owner or operator of a source electing to rely on this Section to comply with the requirements of this Subpart shall:
