Page 5 <br /> • T. New Source. <br /> • ( 1 ) Any building, structure, facility or installation from <br /> which there is or may be a discharge of pollutants, the <br /> construction of which building, structure, facility or <br /> installation commenced after the publication of <br /> proposed pretreatment standards under Section 307 (c) <br /> of the Act which pretreatment standards will be <br /> applicable to such source if such standards are <br /> promulgated in accordance with that section, provided <br /> that: <br /> (a) The building, structure, facility or installation <br /> is constructed at a site at which no other source <br /> is located; or <br /> (b) The building, structure, facility or installation <br /> totally replaces the process or production <br /> equipment that causes the discharge of pollutants <br /> at an existing source; or <br /> (c) The production or wastewater generating processes <br /> of the building, structure, facility or <br /> installation are substantially independent of an <br /> existing source at the same site. In determining <br /> whether these are substantially independent, <br /> factors such as the extent to which the new <br /> facility is integrated with the existing plant, <br /> and the extent to which the new facility is <br /> engaged in the same general type of activity as <br /> the existing source, should be considered. <br /> (2 ) Construction on a site at which an existing source is <br /> located results in a modification rather than a new <br /> source if the construction does not create a new <br /> building, structure, facility or installation meeting <br /> the criteria of Section ( 1 ) (b) or (c) above but <br /> otherwise alters, replaces, or adds to existing process <br /> or production equipment. <br /> ( 3 ) Construction of a new source as defined under this <br /> paragraph has commenced if the owner or operator has: <br /> (a) Begun, or caused to begin as part of a continuous <br /> onsite construction program <br /> (i) Any placement, assembly, or installation of <br /> facilities or equipment, or <br /> (ii) Significant site preparation work including <br /> clearing, excavation, or removal of existing <br /> buildings, structures, or facilities which is <br /> ® necessary for the placement, assembly, or <br /> installation of new source facilities or <br /> equipment; or <br />
