Mississippi Administrative Code › Title 11 - Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality › Part 2 - Air Regulations › Chapter 3 - Mississippi Commission on Environmental Quality, Regulations for the Prevention of Air Pollution Emergency Episodes (Adopted May 8, 1970, Last Amended April 25, 1988) › Rule 11-2-3.4 - Emission Control Action Programs

Current through June 25, 2024
A. Any person
				responsible for the operation of a source of air contaminant which emits 0.25
				tons per day or more of air contaminants for which air standards have been
				adopted shall prepare emission control action programs, consistent with good
				industrial practice and safe operating procedures, for reducing the emission of
				air contaminants into the outdoor atmosphere during periods of an AIR POLLUTION
				ALERT, AIR POLLUTION WARNING, AND AIR POLLUTION EMERGENCY. Emission control
				action programs shall be designed to reduce or eliminate emissions of air
				contaminants into the outdoor atmosphere in accordance with the objectives set
				forth in Tables 1-5 which are made a part of this rule.
B. Emission control action programs as
				required under Rule 3.4.A. shall be in writing and show the source of air
				contamination, the approximate amount of reduction of contaminants, the
				approximate time required to effect the program, a brief description of the
				manner in which the reduction will be achieved during each stage of an air
				pollution episode, and such other information as the Commission shall deem
				pertinent.
C. During a condition of
				AIR POLLUTION ALERT, AIR POLLUTION WARNING, AND AIR POLLUTION EMERGENCY,
				emission control action programs as required by Rule 3.4.A. shall be made
				available on the premises to any person authorized to enforce the provisions of
				the Commission's emergency procedure.
D. Emission control action programs as
				required by Rule 3.4.A. shall be submitted to the Commission in accordance with
				procedures described in Commission Regulation Miss. Admin Code, Title 11, Part
				2, Chapter 2; such emission control action programs shall be subject to review
				and approval by the Commission. If, in the opinion of the Commission, such
				emission control action programs do not effectively carry out the objectives as
				set forth in Tables 1-5, the Commission may disapprove said emission control
				action programs, state its reason for disapproval and order the preparation of
				amended emission control action programs within the time period specified in
				the order. Any person aggrieved by the order requiring the preparation of a
				revised program is entitled to a hearing in accordance with Section
				49-17-41,
				Mississippi Code of 1972. If the person responsible fails within the time
				period specified in the order to submit an amended emission control action
				program which in the opinion of the Commission meets the said objectives, the
				Commission may revise the emission control action program to cause it to meet
				these objectives. Such revised program will thereafter be the emission control
				action program which the person responsible will put into effect upon the
				issuance of an appropriate order by the Commission.
