    All terms used in this part but not defined herein shall have the 
meaning given them in the Clean Air Act and in parts 51 and 60 of this

which a national standard is in effect.
    (b) The term commenced means that an owner or operator has 
undertaken a continuous program of construction or modification.
    (c) The term construction means fabrication, erection, or 
installation.
    (d) The phrases modification or modified source mean any physical 
change in, or change in the method of operation of, a stationary source 
which increases the emission rate of any pollutant for which a national 
standard has been promulgated under part 50 of this chapter or which 
results in the emission of any such pollutant not previously emitted, 
except that:
    (1) Routine maintenance, repair, and replacement shall not be 
considered a physical change, and
    (2) The following shall not be considered a change in the method of 
operation:
    (i) An increase in the production rate, if such increase does not 
exceed the operating design capacity of the source;
    (ii) An increase in the hours of operation;
    (iii) Use of an alternative fuel or raw material, if prior to the 
effective date of a paragraph in this part which imposes conditions on 
or limits modifications, the source is designed to accommodate such 
alternative use.
    (e) The term startup means the setting in operation of a source for 
any purpose.
    (f) [Reserved]
    (g) The term heat input means the total gross calorific value (where
