(e)Control equipment information:
(1)Current primary and secondary AFS control equipment identification codes; and
(2)Current control equipment efficiency. The actual efficiency shall reflect the total control efficiency from all control equipment and include downtime and maintenance degradation. If the actual control efficiency is unavailable, the design efficiency or the control efficiency limit imposed by a permit shall be used; and
(f)Emissions information:
(1)Estimated actual emissions of oxides of nitrogen and volatile organic compounds at the segment level in tons per year and pounds per typical ozone season day. Actual emission estimates shall include upsets, downtime and fugitive emissions, and shall follow an emission estimation method;
