The subject ratings for each indicator shall be determined within 180 days of commencement of operation or by the initial performance test and approved by the DEP. The facility shall keep records of all preventative maintena-nce inspections of the source and daily operational inspections. Mon-thly and yearly records of gas usage, sawdust usage, and production clay throughput are also required.
