As evidence of compliance the Planning Board may require certification of tests by appropriate government agencies or by recognized testing laboratories, any costs thereof to be borne by the applicant. The Planning Board may require that specific types of equipment, machinery, or devices be installed, or that specific operating procedures or methods be followed if the government agencies or testing laboratories examining the proposed operation shall determine that the use of such specific types of machinery, equipment, devices, procedures or methods are required in order to assure compliance with the applicable performance standards.

For use variances which must meet these performance standards the Zoning Board of Appeals shall not issue a permit for any use, structure, process or equipment until it receives a report or recommendation from the Planning Board regarding compliance with the performance standards established herein.
In the event a determination cannot be made at the time of application that a proposed use, process or piece of equipment will meet the standards established in this article, the Planning Board may issue or may recommend issuance of a conditional permit. The conditional permit shall be based on submission of evidence that the proposed use, process or equipment will meet the standards established herein after completion or installation and operation. Within 30 days after a temporary certificate of occupancy is granted a final permit shall be applied for and satisfactory evidence submitted that all standards established by this article have been met.
Continued compliance with the performance standards stated herein shall be a requirement for the continued occupancy of any structure or the operation of any process or equipment.
