Public Hearing
 

August 19,2010
 

Chapter 23-25 of the North Dakota Century Code provides the legal authority that empowers the 

North Dakota State Department ofHealth to implement the Air Pollution Control Law for the State 

ofNorth Dakota. Article 33-15 "Air Pollution Control" ofthe North Dakota Administrative Code 

contains the rules and regulations implemented to control air pollution in the State. Article 33-15 

consists of25 chapters numbered from 33-15-01 through 33-15-25. There are several different 

processes by which EPA delegates authority to the State to manage and protect the air quality 

resources of the State. Historically, the State has gained such authority through the State 

Implementation Plan process. Two other processes are also used. The first is through direct 

delegation procedures and the second involves rules that deal with Title V authorities in the Clean 

Air Act. 

Changes to the following chapters are being submitted as revisiQns to the State Implementation 

Plan: 

33-15-01	 General Provisions 

• Section 33-15-01-04. Definitions - Definition of "volatile 

organic compounds"

Summary of Comments 

and Responses 

1.	 Oral Comments 

The only person to present oral testimony was Scott Skokos representing the Dakota Resource 

Council. 

Comment: Mr. Skokos indicated the Dakota Resource Council (DRC) had concerns about 

including the North Dakota Modeling Guideline in Chapter 33-15-15, Section (1)(1). He 

indicated they have had concerns with North Dakota's modeling methodology since the late 

1990's and would be submitting detailed written comments by August 30,2010. 

Response: Note that the DRC did not submit written comments on the rule revision. Since no 

details of the DRC's objection to the Department's modeling procedure were provided, it is not 

possible to respond in detail. However, the modeling conducted by the Department for major 

sources under Chapter 33-15-15 is reviewed by EPA and Federal Land Managers. EPA has 

oversight authority if the modeling procedures is incorrect. 

2.	 Written Comments 

Written comments were provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and 

Dennis Kost. 

A.	 EPA Comments 

1.	 EPA indicated several sections of the rules contain a "director's 

discretion" which would not be approvable if those sections would be 

submitted with the amended sections. 

Response: None of the sections that are being amended contain a 

"director's discretion." 

2.	 In Chapter 33-15-02, Table 2, the sulfur dioxide (S02) ambient air quality 

standards will remain in effect until one year after the designations under 

Section 107 of the Clean Air Act. These standards must be retained until 

then. 

Response: Table 2 was revised to maintain the 24-hour and annual 

standards with an explanation that they are effective until one year after 

the Section 107 designation. 

The 3-hour S02 National Ambient Air Quality Standard is being adopted 

as a State Ambient Air Quality Standard in Table 1. 
3.	 33-15-14-06.l.cc(2) should be corrected to add "carbon dioxide 

equivalent" at the end. 

Response: Agreed; change made. 

4.	 In 33-15-14-06.5.a(9) the word "alternative" should be added before 

operating scenarios. 

Response: Agreed; change made. 

Dennis Kost Comments: 

1.	 Mr. Kost is concerned about air contaminant emissions from the coal-fired 

power plants and the Mandan Refinery. He indicated he believes more 

monitoring should be required and any rule now, or in the future, should 

be more stringent to protect public health. 

Response: The North Dakota Air Pollution Control Rules do not establish 

specific requirements for monitoring ambient air quality. The Department 

complies with Federal requirements for monitoring, establishes special 

monitoring based on current needs, and requires industry to monitor at 

large sources. The Department will consider Mr. Kost's request for more 

monitoring as a policy decision; however, the amount of ambient 

monitoring in the State is not affected by this rule revision. 

The National Ambient Air Quality Standards established by the U.S. EPA 

are intended to protect public health. North Dakota is in attainment with 

these standards. The Department is adopting more stringent Federal 

standards for S02, nitrogen dioxide (N02) and lead in this rule revision. 

As EPA promulgates more stringent standards, the Department plans to 

adopt them by reference since State rules cannot be less stringent than 

Federal requirements.

RE: EPA Comments for August 19,2010 Public 

Hearing on Proposed Revisions to the North Dakota 

Air Pollution Control Rules and State 

Implementation Plan 

Dear Mr. O'Clair: 

EPA has completed a preliminary review ofthe draft revisions to the North Dakota State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) and Air Pollution Control Rules, you submitted with a letter dated 

June 30, 20 IO. Our comments and questions for the August 19,2010 public hearing are detailed 

in Enclosure 1 to this letter. In addition and as we have done previously, we also included 

comments on problematic Director's discretion concerns in the chapters noticed for the hearing. 

Several proposed revisions listed below are not appropriate for incorporation into the 

North Dakota SIP. EPA will take separate actions on them when submitted. The only comments 

011 these revisions were related to Chapter 33-15-14-06 Title V Penni! to Operate and are 

included in Enclosure 1. 

• Chapter 33-15-12 Standards for Performance for New Stationary Sources 

• Chapter 33·15~ 13 Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

• Chapter 33-15-14-06 Title V Permit to Operate 

• Chapter 33-15-21 Acid Rain Program 

• Chapter 33-15-22 Emission Standards [or Hazardous Air Pollutants for Source Categories 

As a reminder, a VvTitten response to EPA's comments, ,md all other comments received, 

is required to meet the completeness criteria outlined in 40 CFR Part 51 Appendix V and must be 

included in the formal Governor's submittal of the revisions to the SIP once they are finalized. 

We emphasize that we will only come to a final conclusion regarding the adequacy of these 

North Dakota SIP revisions when we act on them through our own public notice ,md comment 

rulemaking.

We appreciate the opportunity to provide comments for your public hearing. If you have 

any questions on EPA's comments, please contact me at 303-312-6434, or have your staff

EPA Comments for
 

North Dakota's August 19,2010 Public Hearing
 

Chapter 33-15-01, General Proyisions 

We have previously expressed concerns about Director's discretion language in parts of 

33-15-01. It appears that the State is not proposing to revise those parts of33-15-01 in this 

action. However, if the State ultimately adopts its proposed revisions to 33-15-01, and those 

parts with Director's discretion are submitted by the Governor, it is likely those parts will not be 

approvable by EPA. We urge you to revise or remove the following sections prior to submittal: 

I.	 33-15-01-07, Variances. This entire section is problematic because it appears to make 

variances immediately effective upon Department approval. Under the Clean Air Act, no 

variance should be effective until EPA approves it as a SIP revision pursuant to section 

110 of the Clean Air Act. 

2.	 33-15-01-14, Time Schedule for Compliance. The language, "except as otherwise 

specified" creates the problematic Director's discretion in this provision. 

Chapter 33-15-02, Ambient Air Qualit)' Standards 

We note and appreciate that you have addressed our previous Director's discretion concern under 

33-15-02-07. We have one comment on the proposed revision to S02 national ambient air 

quality standards (NAAQS). 

3.	 33-15-02 Table 2 National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The S02 standards proposed 

for deletion must be retained for one year after designation for the new standard. Per 

revised 40 eFR 50.4, effective August 23,2010 (75 FR 35520, June 22, 2010), "[tJhe 

SOz NAAQS set forth in this section will no longer apply to an area one year after the 

e1Tective date of the designation ofthat area, pursuant to section 107 ofthe Clean Air Act, 

for SOz NAAQS set fOlth in § 50.17... " 

Chapter 33-15-14, Designated Air Contaminant Sources, Permit to Construct, Minor 

Source Permit to Operate, Title V Permit to Operate 

4.	 33-15-14-02, Permit to Construct and 33-15~14-03, Minor Source Pemlit to Operate. We 

have previously expressed concerns about Director's discretion language in sections of 

33-15-14 (see 33-15-14-02.13.n, 33-15-14-02.19, and 33-15~14-03.16). It appears that 

the State is not proposing to revise these sections in this action. However, if the State 

ultimately adopts its proposed revisions to 33-15-14, and those sections with Director's 

discretion are submitted by the Governor, it is likely those sections will not be approvable 

- 1 ­
by EPA We urge you to revise or remove sections 33-15-14-02.13 .n, 33-15-14-02. I9, 

and 33-15-14-03 .16 prior to submittal. 

5.	 33-15- J 4-02, Permit to Construct. £t appears that the State is not proposing to revise 

33-15-14-02.6. This section includes language we have never acted on that defines 

which source categories are subject to public participation requirements. We have 

previously discussed with the State our concerns with this section of the rule. If the State 

ultimately adopts its proposed revisions to 33-15-14, and section 33-15-14-02.6 is 

submitted by the Governor, it is likely this section will not be approvable by EPA We 

urge you to revise or remove section 33-15-14-02.6 prior to submittal. 

6.	 33-015-14-06, Title V Permit to Operate. Under definitions, 33-015-14-06.l.cc(2) (on 

page 14-37) should be corrected to read, " ...table A-I - Global Wam1ing Potentials, and 

summing the resultant value 1~1I" each to compute a tons per year carbon dioxide 

equivalent.·' 

7.	 33-015-14-06, Title V Permit to Operate. For consistency, we suggest revising the first 

line of 33-0 15-14-06.5.a(9) (on page 14-50) to read, "Terms and conditions for 

reasonably anticipated alternative operating scenarios... "

Re:	 Response to Comments on Proposed Rule Revisions 

Dear Ms. Videtich: 

This letter is in response to your letter of August 30, 2010 which provided comments on the proposed 

revisions to the North Dakota Air Pollution Control Rules and State Implementation Plan. With respect 

to your comments, we have the following response: 

I.	 Chapter 33-15-0 I, General Provi!lions - The Department will not submit Sections 33-15-01-07 or 

33-15-01-14 for approval when we submit the revisions to Chapter 33-15-01. 

2.	 Chapter 33-15-02, Ambient Air Quality Standards - The 24-hour and annual S02 standards will 

be retained in Table 2. A statement has been provided in Table 2 to indicate that. the standards 

will be in effect until one year after the designations under Section 107 of the Clean Air Act. The 

3-hour standard will be incorporated into the State Ambient Air Quality Standards. 

3.	 Chapter 33-15-14, - The Department will not submit the referenced sections for approval when 

we submit the revisions to Chapter 33-15-14. Regarding 33-15-14-06.l.cc(2), this section will be 

revised as indicated to include the term "carbon dioxide equivalent." In 33-15-14-06.5 .a(9), the 

word "alternative" will be added before "operating scenarios" in the first sentence.

abatement, and control of air pollution in this state including achievement of ambient 

air quality standards. 

9.	 Hold hearings relating to any aspect or matter in the administration of this chapter, 

and in connection therewith, compel the attendance of witnesses and the production 

of evidence. 

10.	 Require the owner or operator of a regulated air contaminant source to establish and 

maintain such records; make such reports; install, use, and maintain such 

monitoring equipment or methods; sample such emissions in accordance with such 

methods, at such locations, intervals, and procedures; and provide such other 

information as may be required. 

11.	 Provide by rules and regulations a procedure for the handling of applications for the 

granting of a variance to any person who owns or is in control of any plant, 

establishment, process, or equipment. The granting of a variance is not a right of 

the applicant but must be in the discretion of the department. 

12.	 Provide by rules any procedures necessary and appropriate to develop, implement, 

and enforce any air pollution prevention and control program established by the 

Federal Clean Air Act, as amended, and the authorities and responsibilities of which 

are delegatable to the state by the United States environmental protection agency. 

Such rules may include any and all enforceable ambient standards, emission 

limitations, and other control measures, means, techniques, or economic incentives 

such as fees, marketable permits, and auctions of emissions rights as provided by 

the Act. The department shall develop and implement such federal programs if the 

department determines there is a benefit to the state. 

13.	 Provide by rules a program for implementing lead-based paint remediation training, 

certification, and performance requirements in accordance with title 40, Code of 

Federal Regulations, part 745, sections 220,223,225,226,227, and 233. 

After consultation with the advisory council, the department is empowered to adopt, amend, and 

repeal rules and regulations implementing and consistent with this chapter. 

23-25-03.1. Licensing of asbestos and lead-based paint contractors and 

certification of asbestos and lead-based paint workers. The department is charged with the 

responsibility of administering and enforcing a licensing program for asbestos contractors and 

lead-based paint contractors and a certification program for asbestos workers and lead-based 

paint workers and is given and charged with the following powers and duties: 

Page No.3 
1.	 To require training of, and to examine, asbestos workers and lead-based paint 

workers. 

2.	 To establish standards and procedures for the licensing of contractors, and the 

certification of asbestos workers engaging in the abatement of friable asbestos 

materials or nonfriable asbestos materials that become friable during abatement, 

and to establish performance standards for asbestos abatement. The performance 

standards will be as stringent as those standards adopted by the United States 

environmental protection agency pursuant to section 112 of the Federal Clean Air 

Act, as amended. 

3.	 To establish standards and procedures for the licensing of contractors and the 

certification of lead-based paint workers engaging in the abatement of lead-based 

paint and to establish performance standards for lead-based paint abatement in 

accordance with title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, part 745, sections 220, 223, 

225,226,227, and 233. 

4.	 To issue certificates to all applicants who satisfy the requirements for certification 

under this section and any rules under this section, to renew certificates, and to 

suspend or revoke certificates for cause after notice and opportunity for hearing. 

5.	 To establish an annual fee and renewal fees for licensing asbestos contractors and 

lead-based paint contractors and certifying asbestos and lead-based paint workers 

and to establish examination fees for asbestos and lead-based paint workers under 

section 23-25-04.2. The annual, renewal, and examination fees for lead-based 

contractors and workers may not exceed those charged to asbestos contractors and 

workers. 

6.	 To establish indoor environmental nonoccupational air quality standards for 

asbestos. 

7.	 To adopt and enforce rules as necessary for the implementation of this section. 

For nonpublic employees performing asbestos abatement in facilities or on facility components 

owned or leased by their employer, only the provisions of rules adopted in accordance with the 

federal Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act of 1986 [Pub. L. 99-519; 100 Stat. 2970; 15 

U.S.C. 2641 et seq.], as amended, or the federal Clean Air Act [Pub. L. 95-95; 91 Stat. 685; 42 

U.S.C. 7401 et seq.], as amended, apply to this section. This does not include ownership that 

was acquired solely to effect a demolition or renovation. 

23-25-03.2. Sulfur dioxide ambient air quality standards more strict than federal 

standards prohibited. The department may not adopt ambient air quality rules or standards for 

sulfur dioxide that affect coal conversion facilities or petroleum refineries that are more strict than 

federal rules or standards under the Clean Air Act [42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.], nor may the 

department adopt ambient air quality rules or standards for sulfur dioxide that affect these 

facilities and refineries when there are no corresponding federal rules or standards. Any ambient 

air quality standards that have been adopted by the department for sulfur dioxide that are more 

strict than federal rules or standards under the Clean Air Act, or for which there are no 

corresponding federal rules or standards, are void as to coal conversion facilities and petroleum 

refineries. However, the department may adopt rules for dealing with exposures of less than one 

hour to sulfur dioxide emissions on a source-by-source basis pursuant to any regulatory program 

for dealing with short-term exposures to sulfur dioxide that may be established under the Clean 

Air Act. Any intervention levels or standards set forth in the rules, however, may not be more 

strict than federal levels or standards recommended or adopted under the federal program. In 

adopting the rules, the department shall follow all other provisions of state law governing the 

department's adoption of ambient air quality rules when there are no mandatory corresponding 

federal rules or standards. 

Page NO.4 
23-25-03.3. Requirements for adoption of air quality rules more strict than federal 

standards. 

1.	 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this title, the department may not adopt air 

quality rules or standards affecting coal conversion and associated facilities, 

petroleum refineries, or oil and gas production and processing facilities which are 

more strict than federal rules or standards under the Clean Air Act [42 U.S.C. 7401 

et seq.], nor may the department adopt air quality rules or standards affecting such 

facilities when there are no corresponding federal rules or standards, unless the 

more strict or additional rules or standards are based on a risk assessment that 

demonstrates a substantial probability of significant impacts to public health or 

property, a cost-benefit analysis that affirmatively demonstrates that the benefits of 

the more stringent or additional state rules and standards will exceed the anticipated 

costs, arid the independent peer reviews required by this section. 

2.	 The department shall hold a hearing on any rules or standards proposed for 

adoption under this section on not less than ninety days' notice. The notice of 

hearing must specify all studies, opinions, and data that have been relied upon by 

the department and must state that the studies, risk assessment, and cost-benefit 

analysis that support the proposed rules or standards are available at the 

department for inspection and copying. If at any time the department intends to rely 

upon any studies, opinions, risk assessments, cost-benefit analyses, or other 

information that were not available from the department when it gave its notice of 

hearing, the department shall give a new notice of hearing not less than ninety days 

prior to the hearing that clearly identifies the additional or amended studies, 

analyses, opinions, data, or information upon which the department intends to rely 

and conduct an additional hearing if the first hearing has already been held. 

3.	 In this section: 

a.	 "Cost-benefit analysis" means both the analysis and the written document that 

contains: 

(1)	 A description and comparison of the benefits and costs of the rule and of 

the reasonable alternatives to the rule. The analysis must include a 

quantification or numerical estimate of the quantifiable benefits and 

costs. The quantification or numerical estimate must use comparable 

assumptions including time periods, specify the ranges of predictions, 

and explain the margins of error involved in the quantification methods 

and estimates being used. The costs that must be considered include 

the social, environmental, and economic costs that are expected to result 

directly or indirectly from implementation or compliance with the 

proposed rule. 

(2)	 A reasonable determination whether as a whole the benefits of the rule 

justify the costs of the rule and that the rule will achieve the rulemaking 

objectives in a more cost-effective manner than other reasonable 

alternatives, including the alternative of no government action. In 

evaluating and comparing the costs and benefits, the department shall 

not rely on cost, benefit, or risk assessment information that is not 

accompanied by data, analysis, or supporting materials that would 

enable the department and other persons interested in the rulemaking to 

assess the accuracy, reliability, and uncertainty factors applicable to the 

information. 

b.	 "Risk assessment" means both the process used by the department to identify 

and quantify the degree of toxicity, exposure, or other risk posed for the 

exposed individuals, populations, or resources and the written document 

containing an explanation of how the assessment process has been applied to 

Page No.5 
an individual substance, activity, or condition. The risk assessment must 

include a discussion that characterizes the risks being assessed. The risk 

characterization must include the following elements: 

(1)	 A description of the exposure scenarios used, the natural resources or 

subpopulations being exposed, and the likelihood of these exposure 

scenarios expressed in terms of probability. 

(2)	 A hazard identification that demonstrates whether exposure to the 

substance, activity, or condition identified is causally linked to an adverse 

effect. 

(3)	 The major sources of uncertainties in the hazard identification, 

dose-response, and exposure assessment portions of the risk 

assessment. 

(4)	 When a risk assessment involves a choice of any significant assumption, 

inference, or model, the department in preparing the risk assessment 

shall: 

(a)	 Rely only upon environmental protection agency-approved air 

dispersion models. 

(b)	 Identify the assumptions, inferences, and models that materially 

affect the outcome. 

(c)	 Explain the basis for any choices. 

(d)	 Identify any policy decisions or assumptions. 

(e)	 Indicate the extent to which any model has been validated by, or 

conflicts with, empirical data. 

(f)	 Describe the impact of alternative choices of assumptions, 

inferences, or mathematical models. 

(5)	 The range and distribution of exposures and risks derived from the risk 

assessment. 

c.	 The risk assessment and cost-benefit analysis performed by the department 

must be independently peer reviewed by qualified experts selected by the air 

pollution control advisory council. 

4.	 This section applies to any petition submitted to the department pursuant to section 

23-01-04.1 that identifies air quality rules or standards affecting coal conversion 

facilities or petroleum refineries that are more strict than federal rules or standards 

under the Clean Air Act [42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.] or for which there are no 

corresponding federal rules or standards, regardless of whether the department has 

previously adopted the more strict or additional rules or standards pursuant to 

section 23-01-04.1. This section also applies to any petitions filed under section 

23-01-04.1 affecting coal conversion facilities or petroleum refineries that are 

pending on the effective date of this section for which new rules or standards have 

not been adopted, and the department shall have a reasonable amount of additional 

time to comply with the more stringent requirements of this section. To the extent 

section 23-01-04.1 conflicts with this section, the provisions of this section govern. 

This section does not apply, however, to existing rules that set air quality standards 

for odor, hydrogen sulfide, visible and fugitive emissions, or emission standards for 

particulate matter and sulfur dioxide, but does apply to any new rules governing 

such matters. 

Page No.6 
23-25-04. Classification and reporting of air pollution sources. 

1.	 After consultation with the advisory council the department, by rule or regulation, 

may classify air contaminant sources according to levels and types of emissions and 

other criteria which relate to air pollution and may require reporting for any of such 

class or classes. Classifications made pursuant to this subsection may apply to the 

state as a whole or to any designated area of the state and must be made with 

special reference to effects on health, economic, and social factors and physical 

effects on property. 

2.	 Any person operating or responsible for the operation of air contaminant sources of 

any class for which rules and regulations of the department require reporting shall 

make reports containing information as may be required by the department relevant 

to air pollution. 

23-25-04.1. Permits or registration. 

1.	 No person shall construct, install, modify, use, or operate an air contaminant source 

designated by regulation, capable of causing or contributing to air pollution, either 

directly or indirectly, without a permit from the department or in violation of any 

conditions imposed by such permit. 

2.	 The department shall provide for the issuance, suspension, revocation, and renewal 

of any permits which it may require pursuant to this section. 

3.	 The department may require that applications for such permits shall be 

accompanied by plans, specifications, and such other information as it deems 

necessary. 

4.	 Possession of an approved permit or registration certificate does not relieve any 

person of the responsibility to comply with applicable emission limitations or with any 

other provision of law or regulations adopted pursuant thereto and does not relieve 

any person from the requirement that that person possess a valid contractor's 

license issued under chapter 43-07. 

5.	 The department by rule or regulation may provide for registration and registration 

renewal of certain air contaminant sources in lieu of the permit required pursuant to 

this section. 

6.	 The department may exempt by rule and regulation certain air contaminant sources 

from the permit or registration requirements set forth in this section when the 

department makes a finding that the exemption of such sources of air contaminants 

will not be contrary to section 23-25r01.1. 

23-25-04.2. Fees - Deposit in operating fund. The department by rule or regulation 

may prescribe and provide for the payment and collection of reasonable fees for the issuance of 

permits or registration certificates. The permit or registration certificate fees must be based on 

the anticipated cost of filing and processing the application, of taking action on the requested 

permit or registration certificate, and conducting an inspection program to determine compliance 

or noncompliance with the permit or registration certificate. Any moneys collected for permit or 

registration fees must be deposited in the department operating fund in the state treasury and 

must be spent subject to appropriation by the legislative assembly. 

23-25-05. Right of onsite inspection. 

1.	 Any duly authorized officer, employee, or agent of the department may enter and 

inspect any property, premise, or place on or at which an air contaminant source is 

located or is being constructed, installed, or established at any reasonable time for 

the purpose of ascertaining the state of compliance with this chapter and rules and 

Page NO.7 
regulations enforced pursuant thereto. If requested, the owner or operator of the 

premises shall receive a report setting forth all facts found which relate to 

compliance status. 

2.	 The department may conduct tests and take samples of air contaminants, fuel, 

process materia!, and other materials which affect or may affect emission of air 

contaminants from any source, and shall have the power to have access to and copy 

any records required by department rules or regulations to be maintained, and to 

inspect monitoring equipment located on the premises. Upon request of the 

department, the person responsible for the source to be tested shall provide 

necessary holes in stacks or ducts and such other safe and proper sampling and 

testing facilities exclusive of instruments and sensing devices as may be necessary 

for proper determination of the emission of air contaminants. If an authorized 

representative of the department, during the course of an inspection, obtains a 

sample of air contaminant, fuel, process material, or other material, that 

representative shall issue a receipt for the sample obtained to the owner or operator 

of, or person responsible for, the source tested. 

3.	 For the purpose of ascertaining the state of compliance with this chapter and any 

applicable rules, any duly authorized officer, employee, or agent of the department 

may enter and inspect, at any reasonable time, any property, premises, or place on 

or at which a lead-based paint remediation activity is ongoing. If requested, the 

department shall provide to the owner or operator of the premises a report that sets 

forth all facts found which relate to compliance status. 

23-25-06. Confidentiality of records. 

1.	 Any record, report, or information obtained under this chapter must be available to 

the public, except that upon a showing satisfactory to the department that the record, 

report, or information, or particular part thereof, other than emission data, to which 

the department has access under this chapter, if made public, would divulge trade 

secrets, the department shall consider the record, report, or information or particular 

portion thereof confidential in the administration of this chapter. 

2.	 Nothing herein may be construed to prevent disclosure of any report, or record of 

information to federal, state, or local agencies when necessary for purposes of 

administration of any federal, state, or local air pollution control laws, or when 

relevant in any proceeding under this chapter. 

23-25-07. Emission control requirements. Repealed by S.L. 1975, ch. 231, § 11. 

23-25-08. Administrative procedure and judicial review. Any proceeding under this 

chapter for: 

1.	 The issuance or modification of rules and regulations including emergency orders 

relating to control of air pollution; or 

2.	 Determining compliance with rules and regulations of the department, 

must be conducted in accordance with the provisions of chapter 28-32, and appeals may be 

taken as therein provided. When an emergency exists requiring immediate action to protect the 

public health and safety, the department may, without notice or hearing, issue an order reciting 

the existence of such emergency and requiring that such action be taken as is necessary to meet 

this emergency. Notwithstanding any provision of this chapter, such order must be effective 

immediately, but on application to the department an interested person must be afforded a 

hearing before the state health council within ten days. On the basis of such hearing, the 

emergency order must be continued, modified, or revoked within thirty days after such hearing. 

Except as provided for in this section, notice of any hearing held under this chapter must be 

issued at least thirty days prior to the date specified for the hearing. 

Page NO.8 
23-25-09. Injunction proceedings. Repealed by S.L. 1975, ch. 231, § 11. 

23-25-10. Enforcement - Penalties -Injunctions. 

1.	 Any person who willfully violates this chapter, or any permit condition, rule, order, 

limitation, or other applicable requirement implementing this chapter, is subject to a 

fine of not more than ten thousand dollars per day per violation, or by imprisonment 

for not more than one year, or both. If the conviction is for a violation committed 

after a first conviction of such person under this subsection, punishment must be by 

a fine of not more than twenty thousand dollars per day per violation, or by 

imprisonment for not more than two years, or both. 

2.	 Any person who violates this chapter, or any permit condition, rule, order, limitation, 

or other applicable requirement implementing this chapter, with criminal negligence 

as defined by section 12.1-02-02, is subject to a Fine of not more than ten thousand 

dollars per day per violation, or by imprisonment for not more than six months, or 

both. 

3.	 Any person who knowingly makes any false statement, representation, or 

certification in any application, record, report, plan, or other document filed or 

required to be maintained under this chapter or any permit condition, rule, order, 

limitation, or other applicable requirement implementing this chapter, or who 

falsifies, tampers with, or knowingly renders inaccurate any monitoring device or 

method required to be maintained under this chapter or any permit condition, rule, 

order, limitation, or other applicable requirement implementing this chapter, upon 

conviction, is subject to a fine of not more than ten thousand dollars per day per 

violation, or by imprisonment for not more than six months, or both.

the laws of this state governing injunction or other process, may maintain an action 

in the name of the state against any person to enjoin any threatened or continuing 

violation of any provision of this chapter or any permit condition, rule, order, 

limitation, or other applicable requirement implementing this chapter. 

23-25-11. Regulation of odors - Rules. 

1.	 In areas located within a city or the area over which a city has exercised 

extraterritorial zoning as defined in section 40-47-01.1, a person may not discharge 

into the ambient air any objectionable odorous air contaminant that measures seven 

odor concentration units or higher outside the property boundary where the 

discharge is occurring. If an agricultural operation as defined by section 42-04-01 

has been in operation for more than one year, as provided by section 42-04-02, and 

the business or residence making the odor complaint was built or established after 

the agricultural operation was established, the measurement for compliance with the 

seven odor concentration units standard must be taken within one hundred feet 

[30.48 meters] of the subsequently established residence, church, school, business, 

or public building making the complaint rather than at the property boundary of the 

agricultural operation. The measurement may not be taken within five hundred feet 

[.15 kilometer] of the property boundary of the agricultural operation. 

2.	 In areas located outside a city or outside the area over which a city has exercised 

extraterritorial zoning as defined in section 40-47-01.1, a person may not discharge 

into the ambient air any objectionable odorous air contaminant that causes odors 

that measure seven odor concentration units or higher as measured at any of the 

following locations: 

Page No.9 
a.	 Within one hundred feet [30.48 meters] of any residence, church, school, 

business, or public building, or within a campground or public park. An odor 

measurement may not be taken at the residence of the owner or operator of the 

source of the odor, or at any residence, church, school, business, or public 

building, or within a campground or public park, that is built or established 

within one-half mile [.80 kilometer] of the source of the odor after the source of 

the odor has been built or established; 

b.	 At any point located beyond one-half mile [.80 kilometer] from the source of the 

odor, except for property owned by the owner or operator of the source of the 

odor, or over which the owner or operator of the source of the odor has 

purchased an odor easement; or 

c.	 If a county or township has zoned or established a setback distance for an 

animal feeding operation which is greater than one-half mile [.80 kilometer] 

under either section 11-33-02.1 or 58-03-11.1, or if the setback distance under 

subsection 7 is greater than one-half mile [.80 kilometer], measurements for 

compliance with the seven odor concentration units standard must be taken at 

the setback distance rather than one-half mile [.80 kilometer] from the facility 

under subdivision b, except for any residence, church, school, business, public 

building, park, or campground within the setback distance which was built or 

established before the animal feeding operation was established, unless the 

animal feeding operation has obtained an odor easement from the preexisting 

facility. 

3.	 An odor measurement may be taken only with a properly maintained scentometer, 

by an odor panel, or by another instrument or method approved by the state 

department of health, and only by inspectors certified by the department who have 

successfully completed a department-sponsored odor certification course and 

demonstrated the ability to distinguish various odor samples and concentrations. If a 

certified inspector measures a violation of this section, the department may send a 

certified letter of apparent noncompliance to the person causing the apparent 

violation and may negotiate with the owner or operator for the establishment of an 

odor management plan and best management practices to address the apparent 

violation. The department shall give the owner or operator at least fifteen days to 

implement the odor management plan. If the odor problem persists, the department 

may proceed with an enforcement action provided at least two certified inspectors at 

the same time each measure a violation and then confirm the violation by a second 

odor measurement taken by each certified inspector, at least fifteen minutes, but no 

more than two hours, after the first measurement. 

4.	 A person is exempt from this section while spreading or applying animal manure or 

other recycled agricultural material to land in accordance with a nutrient 

management plan approved by the state department of health. A person is exempt 

from this section while spreading or applying animal manure or other recycled 

agricultural material to land owned or leased by that person in accordance with rules 

adopted by the department. An owner or operator of a lagoon or waste storage 

pond permitted by the department is exempt from this section in the spring from the 

time when the cover of the permitted lagoon or pond begins to melt until fourteen 

days after all the ice cover on the lagoon or pond has completely melted. 

Notwithstanding these exemptions, all persons shall manage their property and 

systems to minimize the impact of odors on their neighbors. 

5.	 This section does not apply to chemical compounds that can be individually 

measured by instruments, other than a scentometer, that have been designed and 

proven to measure the individual chemical or chemical compound, such as 

hydrogen sulfide, to a reasonable degree of scientific certainty, and for which the 

state department of health has established a specific limitation by rule. 

Page No. 10 
6.	 For purposes of this section, a public park is a park established by the federal 

government, the state, or a political subdivision of the state in the manner prescribed 

by law. For purposes of this section, a campground is a public or private area of 

land used exclusively for camping and open to the public for a fee on a regular or 

seasonal basis. 

7.	 a. In a county that does not regulate the nature, scope, and location of an animal 

feeding operation under section 11-33-02, the department shall require that any 

new animal feeding operation permitted under chapter 61-28 be set back from 

any existing residence, church, school, business, public building, park, or 

campground. 

(1)	 If there are fewer than three hundred animal units, there is no minimum 

setback requirement. 

(2)	 If there are at least three hundred animal units but no more than one 

thousand animal units, the setback for any animal operation is one-half 

mile [.80 kilometer]. 

(3)	 If there are at least one thousand one animal units but no more than two 

thousand animal units, the setback for a hog operation is three-fourths 

mile [1.20 kilometers] and the setback for any other animal operation is 

one-half mile [.80 kilometer]. 

(4)	 If there are at least two thousand one animal units but no more than five 

thousand animal units, the setback for a hog operation is one mile [1.60 

kilometers] and the setback for any other animal operation is 

three-fourths mile [1.20 kilometers]. 

(5)	 If there are five thousand one or more animal units, the setback for a hog 

operation is one and one-half miles [2.40 kilometers] and the setback for 

any other animal operation is one mile [1.60 kilometers]. 

b.	 The setbacks set forth in subdivision a do not apply if the owner or operator 

applying for the permit obtains an odor easement from the preexisting use that 

is closer. 

c.	 For purposes of this section: 

(1)	 One mature dairy cow, whether milking or dry, equals 1.33 animal units; 

(2)	 One dairy cow, heifer or bull, other than an animal described in 

paragraph 1 equals 1.0 animal unit; 

(3)	 One weaned beef animal, whether a calf, heifer, steer, or bull, equals 

0.75 animal unit; 

(4)	 One cow-calf pair equals 1.0 animal unit; 

(5)	 One swine weighing fifty-five pounds [24.948 kilograms] or more equals 

0.4 animal unit; 

(6)	 One swine weighing less than fifty-five pounds [24.948 kilograms] equals 

0.1 animal unit; 

(7)	 One horse equals 2.0 animal units; 

(8)	 One sheep or lamb equals 0.1 animal unit; 

Page No. 11 
(9) One turkey equals 0.0182 animal unit; 

(10)	 One chicken, other than a laying hen, equals 0.008 animal unit; 

(11)	 One laying hen equals 0.012 animal unit; 

(12)	 One duck equals 0.033 animal unit; and 

(13)	 Any livestock not listed in paragraphs 1 through 12 equals 1.0 animal unit 

per each one thousand pounds [453.59 kilograms] whether single or 

combined animal weight. 

8.	 A permitted animal feeding operation may expand its permitted capacity by 

twenty-five percent on one occasion without triggering a higher setback distance. 

9.	 Neither a county nor a township may regulate or through any means impose 

restrictions or requirements on animal feeding operations or on other agricultural 

operations except as permitted under sections 11-33-02 and 58-03-11.

ATTORNEY GENERAL 

OPINION 

October 27,2010 

Mr. Terry O'Clair 

Director 

Division of Air Quality 

North Dakota Department of Health 

918 E Divide Ave 

Bismarck, ND 58501-1947 

Dear Mr. O'Clair: 

The Office of Attorney General has examined the proposed amendments to N.D.A.C. 

art. 33-15 concerning air pollution control, along with the notice of the proposed rules, 

the publication of that notice, and the filing of that notice with the Legislative Council. 

This office has also determined that 1) a written record of the agency's consideration of 

any comments to the proposed rules was made, 2) a regulatory analysis was issued, 3) 

a takings assessment was prepared, 4) a small entity regulatory analysis and an 

economic impact statement were not prepared because small entities are not affected 

by these rules, 5) a stringency justification was prepared, and 6) the proposed rules are 

within the agency's statutory authority. 

These administrative rules are in compliance with N.D.C.C. ch. 28-32 and are hereby 

approved as to their legality. Upon final adoption, these rules may be filed with the 

Legislative Council. 

Sincerely, 

Waf
 

Wayne Stenehjem 

Attorney General
