    2.        For state HAPs for which an AAC has not already been determined, the applicant shall determine the acute and chronic AACs according to the process in Appendix 12.

    3.        For specific compounds included in state HAPS listed as a group (e.g., arsenic compounds), the applicant may use an AAC developed according to the process in Appendix 12.

    D.      As part of the risk management analysis, an applicant may vol- untarily propose emissions limitations under R18-2-306.01 in order to avoid being subject to HAPRACT under R18-2-1706, or AZMACT under R18-2-1707.

    E.       Documentation of Risk Management Analysis. The applicant shall document each RMA performed for each state HAP and shall include the following information:

    1.        The potential maximum public exposure of the state HAP;

    2.        The method used to determine the potential maximum public exposure:

    a.         For Tier 1, the calculation demonstrating that the emissions of the state HAP are less than the health- based ambient air concentration, determined under subsection (C)(3).

    b.        For Tier 2, the input files to, and the results of the SCREEN Modeling.

    c.         For Tier 3:

    i.         The input files to, and the results of the SCREEN Modeling; and

    ii.        The permanent and enforceable institutional or engineering controls approved by the Director under subsection (B)(3)(b).

    d.        For Tier 4:

    i.         The model the applicant used;

    ii.        The input files to, and the results of the model- ing;

    iii.      The modeling protocol approved by the Direc- tor under subsection (B)(4)(b); and

    iv.       The permanent and enforceable institutional or engineering controls approved by the Director under subsection (B)(4)(d);

    3.        The health-based ambient air concentrations determined under subsection (C); and

    4.        Any voluntary emissions limitations that the applicant proposes under subsection (D) and R18-2-306.01.

    F.       An applicant may conduct an RMA for any alternative operat- ing scenario requested in the application consistent with the requirements of this Section. The alternative operating sce- nario may allow a range of operating conditions if the Director concludes that the RMA demonstrates no adverse effects to human health or adverse environmental effects from opera-

    tions within that range. Modifications to a source consistent with the alternative operating scenario are not subject to this Article.
