to the owners or operators of petroleum dry cleaning facilities 
constructed, reconstructed, or modified after December 14, 1982 whose 
total manufacturer's rated dryer capacity is equal to or greater than 
38 kilograms (84 pounds). Owners or operators of the affected 
facilities described must make one-time-only notifications. Owners or 
operators are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and 
duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of 
an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system 
is inoperative. Monitoring requirements and recordkeeping requirements 
specific to Subpart JJJ are related to the initial performance test. 
These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining 
compliance; and are required, in general, of all sources subject to 
NSPS. Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part 
shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at 
least 2 years following the date of such records. This information is
