25535
. (a) An owner or operator of a stationary source submitting
an RMP pursuant to this article shall submit the RMP to the
administering agency after the RMP is certified as complete by a
qualified person and the stationary source owner or operator. The
administering agency shall review the RMP and may authorize the air
pollution control district or air quality management district in
which the stationary source is located to conduct a technical review
of the RMP. If, after review by the administering agency and
technical review, if any, by the air pollution control district or
air quality management district, the administering agency determines
that the stationary source's RMP is deficient in any way, the
administering agency shall notify the stationary source of these
defects. The stationary source shall submit a corrected RMP within 60
days of the notification of defects, unless granted a one-time
extension of no more than 30 days, of the notice to correct the RMP
by the administering agency. Failure to fully comply with this notice
or the unified program of this section shall be deemed a violation
of this article for purposes of Section 25540.
(b) Upon implementation of an RMP, the stationary source shall
notify the administering agency that the RMP has been implemented and
shall summarize the steps taken in preparation and implementation of
the RMP.
(c) The stationary source shall continue to carry out the program
and activities specified in the RMP at the stationary source after
the administering agency has been notified pursuant to subdivision
(b).
(d) The owner or operator of the stationary source shall implement
all programs and activities in the RMP before operations commence,
in the case of a new stationary source, or before any new activities
involving regulated substances are taken, in the case of a modified
stationary source.
