2021 California Code|Health and Safety Code - HSC|DIVISION 26 - AIR RESOURCES|PART 4 - NONVEHICULAR AIR POLLUTION CONTROL|CHAPTER 4 - Enforcement|ARTICLE 1 - Permits|Section 42301.12.

42301.12.  (a)  Any district permit system or permit provision established by a district board to meet the requirements of Title V shall, consistent with federal law, minimize the regulatory burden on Title V sources and the district and shall meet all of the following criteria: (1)  Apply only to Title V sources. (2)  Issue permits pursuant to Title V only after the Environmental Protection Agency has approved the district’s Title V permit program. (3)  Identify in the permit, to the greatest extent feasible, permit terms and conditions which are federally enforceable and those which are not federally enforceable. A district shall make that identification by either of the following means: (A)  Identifying in the permit the terms and conditions that are federally enforceable because they are imposed pursuant to a federal requirement or because the source has requested the terms and conditions and federal enforceability thereof and the permitting district has not determined that the request does not meet all applicable federal requirements and guidelines. (B)  Identifying in the permit the terms and conditions which are imposed pursuant to state law or district rules and are not federally enforceable. Districts may further identify those terms and conditions of the permit which are not federally enforceable, but which have been included in the permit to enforce district rules adopted by the district to meet federal requirements. (4)  Utilize, to the extent reasonably feasible, general permits and similar methods to reduce source and district permitting burdens for Title V sources. (5)  Establish clear and simple application completeness criteria. (6)  To the extent feasible, minimize the burden of federally mandated paperwork such as recordkeeping and reporting documents. (7)  Allow sources maximum flexibility in selecting cost-effective, reliable, and representative monitoring methods consistent with applicable state and federal requirements. (8)  If a permit is required to be reopened to comply with Title V requirements, base the reopening upon the federal criteria for reopening and limit the reopening to only the federal component of the Title V permit. This paragraph is not intended to limit in any way the authority under state law to reopen permits. (9)  Authorize administrative permit amendments and minor permit modifications as required by federal law. (10)  Provide that, unless the district determines that a Title V application is not complete within 60 days of receipt of the application, the application shall be deemed to be complete. (11)  Authorize, to the extent consistent with existing state law, mandatory operational flexibility provisions required pursuant to Part 70 (commencing with Section 70.1) of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and consider optional operational flexibility provisions established pursuant to Part 70 (commencing with Section 70.1) of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to affect whatsoever any pending litigation. (12)  Make every reasonable effort, in partnership with Title V sources and the state board, to evaluate and respond to the substance of any objection to a proposed permit and to obtain expeditious approval of Title V permits submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency. (Amended by Stats. 1996, Ch. 984, Sec. 2. Effective September 27, 1996.)
