Air Pollution Control Program Permits are required for sources that emit detectable amounts of air pollutants. Lumber mills, asphalt plants, rock crushers, geothermal wells and gas stations are examples of facilities requiring permits. We verify that the dust, odor, etc., is present and which source may be responsible. The owner or operator of the source is contacted, an inspection and corrective action is discussed. Serious problems may dictate that a Notice of Violation be issued.
Appropriate action is taken.
Enforcement Enforcement action may be required whenever a violation is observed. This could be the result of a public complaint or from routine inspections. Enforcement action requires good judgment and depends on the type of violation, severity of the problem, the degree to which the violation impacted sensitive receptors, and the affects on the ambient air quality.
