Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 13, July 16, 2024
A. Any
				person seeking a permit under Subsection A of 20.2.72.200 NMAC shall do so by
				filing a written application with the Department. The applicant shall submit
				the number of copies of the permit application specified in the applicable
				application form. The items of this section, if requested on the applicable
				application form, are required before the Department may deem an application
				administratively complete. The items may be modified by the Department, as
				appropriate, for emergency permits processed under 20.2.72.215 NMAC. All
				applications shall, as required by the Department:
(1) Be filled out on the form(s) furnished by
				the Department;
(2) State the
				applicant's name and address, together with the names and addresses of all
				owners or operators of the source, and the applicant's state of incorporation
				or principal registration to do business;
(3) Provide all information, including all
				calculations and computations, to describe the specific chemical and physical
				nature and to estimate the maximum quantities of any regulated air contaminants
				the source will emit through routine operations after construction,
				modification or installation is completed, and estimate maximum potential
				emissions during malfunction, startup, shutdown. With respect to a toxic air
				pollutant as defined by Subsection H of 20.2.72.401 NMAC this requirement only
				applies when the toxic air pollutant is emitted in such a manner that a permit
				is required under the provisions of 20.2.72.400 NMAC - 20.2.72.499
				NMAC;
(4) Contain a regulatory
				compliance discussion demonstrating compliance with each applicable air quality
				regulation, ambient air quality standard, prevention of significant
				deterioration increment, and provision of 20.2.72.400 NMAC - 20.2.72.499 NMAC.
				The discussion must include an analysis, which may require use of US
				EPA-approved air dispersion model(s), to (1) demonstrate that emissions from
				routine operations will not violate any New Mexico or National Ambient Air
				Quality Standard or prevention of significant deterioration increment, and (2)
				if required by 20.2.72.400 NMAC - 20.2.72.499 NMAC, estimate ambient
				concentrations of toxic air pollutants.
(5) Provide a preliminary operational plan
				defining the measures to be taken to mitigate source emissions during
				malfunction, startup or shutdown;
(6) Include a topographical map, at least as
				detailed as the 7.5 minute Topographic Quadrangle map published by the United
				States Geological Survey, showing the exact location and geographical
				coordinates of the proposed construction, modification or installation of the
				source;
(7) Include a process flow
				sheet, including a material balance, and a site diagram of all components and
				locations of emissions to the atmosphere of the facility which would be
				involved in routine operations and emissions;
(8) Include a full description, including all
				calculations of controlled and uncontrolled emissions and the basis for all
				control efficiencies presented, of the equipment to be used for air pollution
				control, including a process flow sheet, or, if the Department so requires,
				layout and assembly drawings;
(9)
				Include a description of the equipment or methods proposed by the applicant to
				be used for emission measurement;
(10) State the maximum and standard operating
				schedules of the source after completion of construction, modification or
				installation or after permit revision in terms of which and how many hours per
				day, days per week, days per month and days per year;
(11) Contain such other specifically
				identified relevant information as the Department may reasonably
				require;
(12) Be notarized and
				signed under oath or affirmation by the operator, the owner or an authorized
				representative, certifying, to the best of his or her knowledge, the truth of
				all information in the application and addenda, if any;
(13) Contain payment of any fees which are
				specified in 20.2.75 NMAC (Construction Permit Fees) as payable at the time the
				application is submitted;
(14)
				Contain documentary proof of applicant's public notice, if applicable, as
				specified in Subsection B of 20.2.72.203 NMAC; and
(15) At the sole discretion of the applicant,
				contain a request for accelerated review of the application.
