Subpart

W

...

facilities

with

stationary

combustion

sources

are

reporting

if

they

meet

the

requirement

of

98.2.

...

A

facility

that

only

has

C

...

sources

...

is

...

required

...

to

...

report

98.2(a)(3)

...

(i)-(iii)

are

met.

...

98.2(a)(3)(ii)

...

specifies

a

both

Subpart

98.2(a)(2)

98.2(a)(3).

...

98.2(a)(2)

...

specifies

where

that

the

greater

The

only

applies

any
