Appendix A

### NOTICE OF INTENT Department ofEnvironmental Quality Office ofEnvironmental Assessment

1 nsignificant Activities List (LAC 33:1II.501)(AQ244)

Under the authority of the Environmental Quality Act, R.S. 30:2001 et seq., and in ;>ccordance with the provisions ofthe Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:950 et seq., the secretary gives notice that rulemaking procedures have been initiated to 

### amcnd the Air regulations, LAC 33:Jr1.501 (Log #AQ244).

This Rule revision corrects contradictory language regarding "insignificant activities" that do not need a permit. LAC 33:JrI.50I.B.5 states in part, "Any activity for which a state or federal applicable requirement applies is not insignificant, even ifthe activity meets the criteria below." However, Part 0 

### of the Insignificant Activities List table allows for an exemption if"no enforceable pennit conditions
are necessary to ensure compliance with any applicable requirement." Based on the existing list of insignificant sources, it was determined that the language in Part 

### Dofthe table more accurately reflects the intent of the list. For example, the first entry in the table (A.I) is external combustion equipment with a design rate greater than or equal to I 

### million Btu perhour (MM Btulhr), but less than or equal to 10 MM Btulhr. Small gas-fired heaters typically fall into this category. Such equipment would be subject to the opacity provisions ofLAC 33:III.1IOI.B and the particulate limitations of LAC 33:111.1 313.C; however, enforceable permit conditions (e.g., restrictions on fuel use or hours of operation) are not necessary to ensure compliance with these requirements. The basis and rationale for this proposed rule
are to correct contradictory language in the Insignificant Activities List.

This proposed Rule meets an exception listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(2) and R.S. 49:953(GX3); therefore, no report regarding environmentallhealth benefits and social/economic costs is required. This proposed Rule has no known impact
on family formation, stability, and autonomy as described in R.S. 49:972. Title

5. Insignificant Activities List. Those activities listed in the following table are approved by the permitting authority as insignificant on the basis of size, emission or production rate, or type of pollutant. By such listing, the permitting authority exempts certain sources or types of
sources from the requirement to obtain a permit under this Chapter unless it is determined by the permitting authority
on a site-specific basis that any such exemption is not appropriate. The listing ofany activity or emission unit as insignificant does not authorize the maintenance of a nuisance or a danger to public health or safety. Any activity for which a federal applicable requirement applies is not 

### insignificant, even if 

### the activity meets the criteria below. For the purpose of permitting requirements under LAC Louisiana Register Vol. 31, NO.2 February20, 2005 564 

# 4 33:111.507. no exemption listed in the following table shall become effective until approved by the administrator in accordance with 40 CFR Part 70. For purposes of the insignificant activities listed in this Paragraph. aggregale emissions

## Good Afternoon! My name is Nicole
Hano. I'm employed with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality. I'll be serving as hearing officer this afternoon

to receive comments regarding proposed amendments to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for Air Quality, and proposed amendments to the Environmental Quality regulations.
The comment period for the proposed amendments began on February 20, 2005, when the notices were published in the Louisiana Register. The comment period for rule Log Number OS062* will close at 4:30 p.m., today, March 29, 2005, and the comment periods for Log Numbers AQ244, AQ248, RP038, and RP040 will close at 4:30 p.m., April 5,
2005. The comment period for the proposed SIP amendments, including the addendum, will close at 4:30 

## p.m., May 6, 

## 2005. It would be helpful to us if all oral comments received today were followed up in writing. This public hearing provides a forum

that each person commenting come up and sit

The first regulations amendment on the agenda is designated by the Log Number AQ244.

## activity for which a state or federal applicable requirement applies is

not insignificant, even if the activity

allows for an exemption if "no enforceable permit conditions are necessary to ensure compliance with any applicable requirement."
Based on the existing list of insignificant

sources, it was determined that the language
in Part D of the table more accurately
reflects the intent of the list. For example, the first entry in the table (A.l)

Comments will begin with Henry Graham.
MR. GRAHAM: 

## Good afternoon. My name is Henry Graham. I'm with the Louisiana Chemical
Association. LCA is a trade association representing chemical manufacturers in the
State of Louisiana. Some of our members or many of our members have operating permits under the Title 5 Program and therefore would be impacted by the proposed rule. The LCA supports the adoption of AQ244. We believe that this clarification

Dear Ms. Schuerman:

The Louisiana Mid-Continent Oil and Gas Association appreciates the opportunity to comment on the proposed amendments to the AirPermit Insignificant Activities List (Log

Mid-Continent is an industry trade association representing individuals and companies who together produce, transport, refine and market crude oil, natural gas, petroleum products and electricity in Louisiana. Several Mid-Continent member companies have air permits with equipmentaffected by the proposed amendments.

Mid-Continent supports the proposed amendments. Mid-Continent agrees with the Department that the existing rule language was contradictoryand confusing. The proposed amendments rectify this concern.

Once again, Mid-Continent appreciates the opportunity to submit these comments.
Very truly yours,

# 27are necessary to ensure compliance with any applicable requirement." Based on the existing list of insignificant sources, it was determined that the language in Part D ofthe table more accurately reflects the intent of the list. For example, the first entry in the table (A. I ) is external combustion equipment with a design rate greater than or equal to I million Btu perhour (MM Btu/hr), but less than or equal to 10 MM Btu/hr- Small gas-fired heaters typically fall into this category.

### LB and the particulate limitations of LAC 33:111.13 13.C; however, enforceable permit conditions (e.g., restrictions on fuel use or hours of operation) are not necessary to ensure compliance with these requirements. The basis and rationale for this Rule are to correct contradictory language in the Insignificant Activities List.

This Rule meets an exception listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(2) and R.S. 49:953(G)(3); therefore, no report regarding environmental/health benefits and social/economic costs is required. This proposed Rule has no known impact on family formation, stability, and autonomy as described in R.S.49:972. Title

5. Insignificant Activities List. Those activities listed in the following table are approved by the permitting authority 

### as insignificant on the basis of size, emission or production rate, or type of pollutant. By such listing, the permitting authority exempts certain sources or types of
sources from the requirement to obtain a permit under this Chapter unless it is determined by the permitting authority
on a site-specific basis that any such exemption is not appropriate. The listing of any activity or emission unit as insignificant does not authorize the maintenance of a nuisance or a danger to public health or safety. Any activity for which a federal applicable requirement applies is not insignificant, even if the activity meets the criteria below. For the purpose of permitting requirements under LAC 33:111.507, no exemption listed in the following table shall become effective 

### until approved by the administrator in accordance with 40 eFR Part 70. For purposes of the insignificant activities listed in this Paragraph. aggregare emissions shall mean the total emissions from a particular insignificant activity or group of similar insignificant activities (e.g., A.I, A.2, etc.) within apermit peryear.

Department ofEnvironmental Quality

Office ofEnvironmental Assessment

Under the authority of the Environmental Quality Act, R.S. 30:2001 et seq., and in accordance with the provisions ofthe Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:950 et seq., the secretary gives notice that rulemaking procedures have been initiated to amend the Environmental Quality regulations, LAC 33:1.1901,1903,1905,1907,1909, and 1911; Il1.505, 517, and 521; V.321 and 4303; Vll.517; and IX.2701, 2901, 2903, and 2905 

### (Log#OS057).

This Rule will provide a unified, streamlined process for
name or ownership/operator changes at facilities under the purview ofthe air, LPDES, hazardous waste, and solid waste regulatory programs. The department's re-engineering resulted in the creation ofa single entity to handle name or ownership/operator changes. The Governor's Environmental TaskForcerecognized that Ihe regulatory processes for these changes were cumbersome forboth the regulated community and the department's staff. Therefore, the task force recommended that the department create a streamlined process for all media. The project will occur in two stages. The first stage is being addressed in this proposed Rule and deals with only permitted media facilities. The second stage will address hazardous and solid waste generators and other miscellaneous programs. The basis and ralionale for this rule
are to allow a unified procedure [or all media resulting in cleanernotification procedures for the regulated community.

This proposed Rule meets an exception listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(2) and RS 49:953(G)(3); 

### therefore, no report regarding environmentallhealth benefits and sociaVeconomic costs**i~** 

### required. This proposed Rule has no known impact
on family formation, stability, and autonomy as described in R.S. 49:972.

RE: FacilityName or Owner/Operator Changes Proposed Rule (OSOS?)



### DearMr. Jordan:

Thank you for the opportunityto review and provide comments on yourproposed changes regarding facility name orowner/operatorchanges. Weprovide the following comments to assist in assuring that your final mle will be consistentwith the requirements ofthe Clean Air Act (Act) and ourregulations promulgated under that Act. Please note that the following comments represent those ofthe Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 6 AirPermits Program. Otherprogram media mayprovide separate comments.

1. Section 1901 should define the scope of"airpermits" and as to which ones the draftrule will apply.

2. 

## In 

## § 1901, the terms "administrative amendment" and "minor modification"

are not defined in the draftrule. Ifthese tenns are defined elsewhere, there should be reference to this in the Applicability section. This appears to also be the case of"financial assurance" in 

## § 1905.

3. The teon "administratively complete" lacks reference to an existing section which specificallydefines "administratively complete." Specifically, you should include a cross-reference to any existingprovision which defines the term "administrativelycomplete,"

4. Proposed revisions to 

## § 505(O)(1)(e). This Section currentlyprovides that when there is a change in the owneror operator (at an acid rain source), the
new owner oroperatormust submit a new celiificate ofrepresentation to LDEQ within 30 days. The proposal would replace this provision with the

- nttp:l/www.epa.gov/earth1r5/ Recycled/Recyclable

- Printed with Vegetable Oil Based Inks on Recycled Paper (Iv1inimum 30% Postconsurner) 

# 67

### 2


### requirement that such changes in owners and operators be done in accordance with Chapter 19. The LDEQ must demonstrate that the provisions of Chapter 19 are at least as stringent as the Acid Rain Programmandated by the Clean AirAct (§ 408(i)) and EPA's regulations (40 Code ofFederal Regulations part 72, subpartB). The LDEQ could address this concernby clarifyingthattheprovision under theproposed 

## § 1901 (C) applies because 

## it provides that Chapter 19 does not supercede any otherwise applicable requirements addressing administrative amendments ormodifications.

5. The LDEQhas proposed revisions to §§ 505 and 517. Theseprovisions are currently approved as part ofLouisiana's TitleV Operating Pemlits Program. You should submit the changes to 

## §§ 505 and 517 as revisions to its Title V OperatingPennits Program.
6, 

### Otherprovisions that youproposemay also revise or affectprovisions that are approved as part ofthe Louisiana State Implementation Plan (SJY). Ifthis is the case, you should submit such changes as revisions to your SIP.

We appreciate the opportunityto provide these comments. Ifyou have anyquestions, please call Mr. Stanley M. Spruiell ofmy staffat (214) 665-7212.
Sincerelyyours,

RE: FacilityNameorOwner/OperatorChanges Proposed Rule (OSOS?)



### DearMr. Jordan:

Thankyou for the opportunity to review and provide comments on yourproposed changes regarding facility name orowner/operatorchanges. Weprovidethe following comments to assist in assuring that yourfinal rule will be consistentwith the requirements ofthe CleanAir Act (Act) and ourregulations promulgatedunderthatAct. Pleasenote thatthe following commentsrepresentthose ofthe Environmental ProtectionAgency (EPA) Region 6 AirPermits Program. Otherprogrammediamayprovide separate comments.

1. Section 1901 should definethe scope of"airpermits" and as to which ones the draft rulewill apply.

2. In § 1901, the terms "administrative amendment" and "minormodification"
are not defined inthe draftrule. Ifthese terms are defined elsewhere, there should bereference to this in theApplicability section. This appears to also be the case of"financial assurance" in 

## § 1905.

3. The tenn "administrativelycomplete" lacks reference to 

## all existing section which specifically defines "administrativelycomplete." Specifically, you should include across-referenceto any existing provisionwhich defines the term "administratively complete."

4. Proposedrevisions to § 505(O)(l)(e). This Sectioncurrently provides that when there is a change inthe owneroroperator (at an acid rain source), the
new owner oroperatormust submit anew certificate ofrepresentation to LDEQ within 30 days. Theproposal would replace this provision with the

## requirement that such changes in owners and operators be done in accordance with Chapter 19. The LDEQ must demonstrate that theprovisions of Chapter 19 are at least as stringent as the Acid Rain Program mandated by the CleanAirAct (§ 408(i)) andEPA's regulations (40 Code ofFederal Regulations part 72, subpartB). The LDEQ could address this concern by clarifying that the provision undertheproposed § 1901 (C) 

## applies because it provides that Chapter 19 does not supercede any otherwise applicable requirements addressing administrative amendments ormodifications.

5. The LDEQ has proposed revisions to 

## §§ 505 and 517. Theseprovisions are currently approved as part ofLouisiana's Title V OperatingPemlits Pragranl. You should submitthe changes to 

## §§ 505 and 517 as revisions to its TitleV Operating Permits Program.

6. Otherprovisions that you proposemay also revise oraffect provisions that are approved as part ofthe LouisianaState ImplementationPlan (SIP). Ifthis is the case, you should submit such changes as revisions to your SIP.

We appreciate the opportunity to provide these comments. Ifyou have anyquestions, please call Mr. StanleyM. Spruiell ofmy staffat (214) 665-7212.

# < LCA also requests that, prior to any legislative oversight hearings, LDEQ provide to ;,-- LCA a complete draft of proposed technical changes to the Name/Owner/Operator Change Rules.

LCA's comments on the Name/Owner/Operator Change Rules follow:

LCA COMMENTS ON THE NAME/OWNER/OPERATOR CHANGE RULES 1



## Introduction.

LCA is a nonprofit Louisiana corporation, composed of68 members located at over 90 plant sites in Louisiana. Each such plant is subject to various regulatory programs within the jurisdiction ofLDEQ and has pennits issued by LDEQ. Because ofthe vagaries ofbusiness and the markets in which LCAmembers operate, it is not uncommon for an LCA memberto undergo
a name change or a change in ownership or operational control. Thus, LCA members may be substantially affected by theName/Owner/Operator Change Rules (Log No. OS057).

1. General--Incorporation ofOther Comments.

LCA hereby adopts and incorporates by reference those comments on the proposed Name/Owner/Operator Change Rules, LAC 33:I.l901, 1903, 1905, 1907, 1909, and 1911;**',J~** 

## III.SOS, 517, and 521; V.321 and 4303; VIL517; and IX.2701, 2901, 2903, and 2905 (Log No. 

# No OS057), made by the LouisianaMid-Continent Oil & 

## Gas Association ("LMOGA"), members of (..of 

## LCA, and members of LMOGA, to the extent such conunents are not inconsistent with the 't'f\,A f!,. 

## comments made hereinby LCA.

2. General.
Generally, LCA supports the proposed Name/Owner/Operator Change Rules and-l applauds LDEQ's efforts in attempting to streamline what can often be a difficult and time- ..;-- consummg process.


## 3. LAC 33:1.1901**~-Applicability.**


## As further set forth in Comment No. 9 below, LCA submits that the ability to 

# :J. "automatically" transfer an LPDES pennit should be maintained. Thus, LCA submits that anew /" LAC 33:I.I901.D should be added to the proposed regulation, which should read as follows:

! 

## In these comments, LeA

## LeA Comments June 30, 2005 Page 3



## D. An 

## LPDES permit may betransferredpursuant to LAC 33:IX.2901.B, in 

## lieu ofcompliance with this Chapter.



## 4. LAC 33:I.1903.A--Liability.

As written, LAC 33:I.l903.A may confuse the regulated community, because most permit transfers will be effective upon the date indicated in the NOC-l Fonn. Thus, LCA submits that such provision should be revised to read as follows:

A. The previous owner or operatorretains responsibility for compliance with all permit terms and conditions until the 

## permit has been transferred 

## OOministrati,'o authorit)! makes a detennination regarding a change of o\vnership oroperator as specified in**~rdance** 

## with this Chapter.


## 5. LAC 33:I.1907.A.l and 2--ChaDge of OWDersbip/Operator--No Financial Assurance Required.

Under the existing regulations, assumption by the new owner or operator ofliability for existing violations is a not 

## a condition for transfers ofair or LPDES permits. 

## See, e.g., LAC 33:III.510.C10, 517.G, and 521.A.3 and LAC 33:IX.2901 and 2905. Thus, LCA submits that assumption ofsuch liability should notbe a

## condition under LAC 33:LChapter 19 fOfthe transfer of such permits. LCA thus submits that LAC 33:1.1907.A.i should be deleted 

## and LAC 33:I.l907.A.2 should be renumbered "LAC 33:1.1907.A.I."


## 6. LAC 33<I.1909.A.l--CbaDge of Ownership/Operator-Financial Assurance Required.

For the reasons set forth in Comment NO.5 above, LCA submits that assumption by the
new owner or operator ofliability for existing violations should not be 

## acondition for transfer of
an LPDES pennit. Thus, LCA submits that LAC 33:I.l909.A.I should be revised to read as follows:



## 1. s:xcept with respect tQ LPDES permits. assumption by the 

## new owner 

## or operatQfofliability for existing violations;

7. 

## LAC 33:I.1909.D-Cbange of Ownersbip/Operator--FinaDcial Assurance Required.

LCA submits that the last sentence of LAC 33:I.1909.D should be revised to read as follows:

946845·1 

# 80

## Dr. Judith A. Schuerman LCA Comments June 30, 2005 Page 4

This notification shall be made within 90 calendar days after the administrative authority has provided a written response approving the notification transfer of the permit and the change has been putinto effect.

8. LAC 33:IX.2701.L.3-Conditions Applicable to AJI Permits.

For the reasons set forth in Comment No. 9 below, LCA submits that LAC 3J:IX.2701.L.3 should be revised to read as follows:

3. Transfers. This permit is not transferable to any person except after notice to the state administrative authority in accordance with LAC 33:I.Chapter 19 ill 

## LAC 33:IX.2901.B. The state administrative authority may require modification
or revocation and reissuance ofthe permit to change the name ofthe permittee and incorporate such other requirements as may be necessary under the CWA or the LEQA. (See LAC 33:I.X.2901; in some cases, modification or revocation and reissuance is mandatory.)

9. LAC 33:IX.2901.B--Transfer ofPermits.

LCA submits thatthe option to automatically transfer an LPDES permit via theprocedure provided in existing LAC 33:IX.2901.B should remain. This is a long-standing procedure, approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (see, e.g., 40 CFR 122.61(b)), and intimately familiar to LDEQ. There is no reason why this procedure cannot continue, as it is in harmony with--not antithetical to--LAC 33:I.Chapter 19 and facilitates the rapid transfer ofpermits. Thus LCA submits that LAC 33:IX.2901.B should not be deleted but should, instead, remain as partof the existing LPDES regulations.

LCA welcomes further review and dialogue with LDEQ personnel in light of the significant impact the proposed regulations may have on industry. Should you have any questions regarding the written comments ofLCA, please do not hesitate to contact me at 344- 2609. Thank you for all ofyour assistance and cooperation.
Verytruly yours,

RESPONSE 4:

COMMENT 5: LAC 33:1.1901

- Commenter believes the requirement for an automatic transfer of an LPDES permit should be maintained and not eliminated in the proposed rule.
FOR: The automatic transfer process in the existing regulations only requires a facility to notify the agency more than 30 days priorto the change in orderfor the action to be recognized by the agency. This eliminates the need for going through the entire permit major modification process that is time consuming and more expensive.
AGAINST: The existing LPDES regulations in LAC 33.IX.2905 specifically refer to changes of ownership or operational control as minor modifications. The proposed regulations retain the reference to these changes being considered minor permitting actions. Additionally, the proposed rules give owners/operators more time to submit their notification to the agency. In addition, the Department must complywith the requirements of LAC 33:1.1701 regarding review of environmental history for owners and/or operators of regulated facilities.
RESPONSE 5: The department feels that the proposed regulations provide additional flexibility to facilities without adding paperwork or consequential financial burden. Therefore no changes were

## A subsection (designated "0") should be added to this section with the following language: An LPDESpermit maybe transferredpursuantto LAC

## 33:IX.2901.B, in lieu of compliance with this Chapter. 

## This language should be added because the abilityto "automatically" transfer an LPDES permit should be maintained.

## days priorto the change in orderforthe action to be recognized by the agency. This eliminates the need forgoing through the entire permit major modification process that is time consuming and more expensive.

COMMENT 10: LAC 33:1.1907.A.1

- This paragraph should be deleted. Under existing regulations assumption by the new owner or operator of liability for existing violations is not a condition for transfers of air or LPDES permits. Therefore assumption ofsuch liability for the transfer of such permits should not be a condition under LAC 33:I.Chapter 19.
FOR: Longstanding agency rules and procedures have not required assumption of liability for new owners/operators consistently across media program boundaries, making this a new requirement.
AGAINST: This proposed rule attempts to streamline existing processes and



# 85Page 5 of 9 OS057 Summary 

## bring consistency to the regulations governing name, owner and operatorchanges at facilities. The proposed rule does not require the new ownerto assume liability, but does require the department to monitorthe presence of documentation relative to liability for past violations. Existing language in LAC:33.IX.2901.B requires documentation oftransfer of permit responsibility and liability between the existing and new permittees. This requirement is retained in the proposed rule in LAC 33:1.1907.A.1.
RESPONSE 10: The department feels that the language could be worded better and will clarify this requirement with technical amendments to the rule.

COMMENT 11: LAC 33:1.1909.A.1

- Revise this paragraph to read: 

## exceptwith respectto LPDESpermits, assumptionbythe newowner

# or operatorofliabilityforexisting violations. Underexisting regulations assumption by the new owner or operator of liability for existing violations is not a condition for transfers of air or LPDES permits. Assumption bythe new owner or operator of liability for existing violations should therefore not be a condition for transferof an LPDES permit.
FOR: Longstanding agency rules and procedures have not required assumption of liabilityfor new owners/operators consistently across media program boundaries, making this a new requirement with regard to LPDES permits.
AGAINST: This proposed rule attempts to streamline existing processes and bring consistency to the regulations governing name. owner and operator changes atfacilities. The proposed rule does not require the new ownerto assume liability, but does require the department to monitorthe presence ofdocumentation relative to liabilityfor past violations.
RESPONSE 11: The departmentfeels that the language could be worded better and will clarify this requirement with technical amendments to the rule. The technical amendments 

## will not, however, provide exception for LPDES permits.

- This paragraph should be revised to read: Thispermitis not transferable to anyperson exceptafternotice to the state administrative authorityin accordance with LAC 33:1. Chapter

## 19 orLAC33:/X.2901.

## B. The reasons are set forth in the following comment.
FOR: Automatic permit transfer language should remain as a process for transferring LPDES permits. The automatictransfer process in the existing regulations only requires a facility to notifythe agency more than 30 days priorto the change in orderfor the action to be recognized bythe agency. This eliminates the need for going through the entire permit major modification process that is time consuming and more expensive.
AGAINST: This proposed rule attempts to streamline eXisting processes and bring consistency to the regulations governing name. owner and operator changes at facilities.
RESPONSE 15: The eXisting LPDES regulations in LAC 33:IX.2905 specifically refer to changes of ownership or operational control as minor modifications. The proposed regulations retain the reference to these changes being considered minor permitting actions. The department feels that the proposed regulations provide additional flexibilityto facilities without adding paperwork or consequential financial burden. Therefore, no changes were made as a result ofthis comment.

COMMENT 16: LAC 33:IX.2901.B

- This subsection should remain as part of the existing LPDES regulations, It is a long-standing procedure, approved bythe EPA, well-known to DEQ, in harmonywith LAC 33:I.Chapter 19. and facilitates the rapid transfer of permits. The option to automaticallytransfer an LPDES permit by this procedure should remain.
FOR: This is a long standing procedure that facilitates transfers for those facilities that apply for transfers more than 30 days prior to the date ofthe transfer.
AGAINST: The existing LPDES regulations in LAC 33:IX.2905 specifically referto changes of ownership or operational control as minor modifications. The proposed regulations retain the reference to these changes being considered minor permitting actions.

9: LAC 33:1.1907.A.1

- This paragraph should be deleted. Under existing regulations assumption by the new owner or operator of liability for existing violations is not a condition for transfers of air or LPDES permits. Therefore assumption ofsuch liability for the transfer of such permits should not be a condition under LAC 33:I.Chapter 19.
FOR: Longstanding agency rules and procedures have not required assumption of liability for new owners/operators consistently across media program boundaries, making this a new requirement.
AGAINST: This proposed rule attempts to streamline existing processes and bring consistencyto the regulations governing name, owner and operator changes at facilities. The proposed rule does not require the new ownerto assume liability, but does require the department to monitorthe presence ofdocumentation relative to liability for past violations. Existing language in LAC:33.IX.2901.B requires documentation oftransfer of permit responsibility and liability between the existing and new permittees.

Under the authority of the Environmental Quality Act, R.S. 30:2001 et seq., and in accordance with the provisions ofthe Administrative Procedure Act, R.S. 49:950 et seq., the secretary has amended the Environmental Quality regulations, LAC 33:1.1901, 1903, 1905, 1907, 1909, and 1911; 1l1.505, 517, and 521; V.321 and 4303; VII.5l7; and lX.2701, 2901, 2903, and 2905 (Log #OS057).

This Rule will provide a unified, streamlined process for
name or ownership/operator changes at facilities under the purview ofthe air, LPDES, hazardous waste, and solid waste regulatory programs. The department's re-engineering resulted in the creation ofa single entity to handle name or ownership/operator changes. The Governor's Environmental Task Force recognized that the regulatory processes for these changes were cumbersome for both the regulated community and the department's staff. Therefore, the task force recommended that the department create a streamlined process for all media. The project will occur in two stages. The first stage is being addressed in this Rule and deals with only perrnined media facilities. The second stage will address hazardous and solid waste generators and other

There was a reorganization of the department under the
new administration. This proposed Rule revises references to the department's divisions in the regulations to reflect the
new organizational structure of the department. The Rule also makes minor grammatical corrections and format changes to internal regulation references. This change is necessary to keep the regulations current in order to provide accurate information for the regulated community. The basis and rationale for this proposed Rule are to correct the division names cited in the regulations to correspond to the
new or renamed divisions created when the department was reorganized.

This proposed Rule meets an exception listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(2) and R.S. 49:953(G)(3); therefore, no report regarding environmentallhealth benefits and social/economic costs is required. This proposed Rule has no known impact
on family formation, stability, and alltonomy as described in R.S.49:972.

There was a reorganization ofthe department under the
new administration. This Rule revises references to the department's divisions in the regulations to reflect the new organizational structure of the department. The Rule also makes minorgrammatical corrections and format changes to internal regulation references. This change is necessary to keep the regulations current in order to provide accurate information for the regulated community. The basis and rationale for this proposed Rule are to correct the division
names cited in the regulations to correspond to the new or renamed divisions created when the department was reorganized.

This Rule meets an exception listed in R.S. 30:2019(D)(2) and R.S. 49:953(G)(3); therefore, no report regarding environmental/health benefits and social/economic costs is required. This Rule has no known impact on family formation, stability, and autonomy as described in R.S. 49:972. Title

Following promulgation of the final rule that was published in the 

### Federal Register on May 12, 2005 (70 FR 25162), the EPA received 11 petitions for reconsideration. In response to the petitions, on November22 and December20, 2005, EPA granted reconsideration and requested comment
on certain aspects ofthe CAIR rule. The rule and actions can beviewed at http://www.epa.gov/cair/rule.html.

On August 1, 2005, EPA proposed a Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for CAIR and corrections to the CArR rule (70 FR 49708). EPA expects to take final action
on reconsideration of all issues under reconsideration by March 15,2006. EPA also anticipates finalizing the proposed FIPand rule amendments by thatdate.

The department hereby provides notice that it proposes to incorporate by reference (IBR) provisions of the federal CAIR S02 Trading Program. Formal state rulemaking will begin following EPA's finalization of rule amendments in March 2006

Ouroffice has reviewed the LouisianaDepartmentofEnvironmental Quality's proposed revisions tothe 2005 General Revision to the State Implementation Plan, which includes revisions to LAC 33:IIl in Chapters 2, 5, 6, 9, 11, 14, 15, 21, 22, and 23.
Many revisions appearto be primarily non-substantive andclerical in nature from
an AirPlanningperspective. We supportthe revisions that revise rule references after departmentreorganization to reflect the new organizational structure. These are included in the section ofyour submittal entited 

## "OS 065, OrganizationalChanges Under New Administration." We also supportthe revision to §2305 in which the reference to repealed Chapter31 is removed. We understand therevision removes definitions from this section, so whatdefinitions now apply here?

The additional rules that were promulgatedin 2004, all refer to the reporting requirements in LAC 33:1, Chapter39, Notification Regulations andProcedures for Unauthorized Discharges. Wedo notexpect to be able to act on these revisions because ofconcern with the approvability of LAC 33:1, Chapter39. Regarding therevision to §2115 in 2004 adoptions, we can support the changes in thresholdreporting from 50to 25 tpy forthe Baton Rouge nonattainmentarea, andto 100 tpy for all otherareas ofthe state with theexceptionofCalcasieu and Pointe Coupee Parishes, which remain at 50 tpy. 

## All othersections not specifically discussedin this letter may be commentedupon by the AirPermitSection.

We appreciate the opportunityto comment on these SIPrevisions. Ifwe may be ofany assistance to you in the future, please feel free to contact me orSandraRennie of my staffat (214) 665-7367.
