Texas Administrative Code › Title 30 - ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Part 1 - TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Chapter 116 - CONTROL OF AIR POLLUTION BY PERMITS FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION OR MODIFICATION › Subchapter F - STANDARD PERMITS › Section 116.615 - General Conditions

Current through Reg. 49, No. 28; July 12, 2024
The following general conditions are applicable to holders
					 of standard permits, but will not necessarily be specifically stated within the
					 standard permit document.
(1)
				  Protection of public health and welfare. The emissions from the facility,
				  including dockside vessel emissions, must comply with all applicable rules and
				  regulations of the commission adopted under Texas Health and Safety Code,
				  Chapter 382, and with the intent of the Texas Clean Air Act (TCAA), including
				  protection of health and property of the public.
(2) Standard permit representations. All
				  representations with regard to construction plans, operating procedures,
				  pollution control methods, and maximum emission rates in any registration for a
				  standard permit become conditions upon which the facility or changes thereto,
				  must be constructed and operated. It is unlawful for any person to vary from
				  such representations if the change will affect that person's right to claim a
				  standard permit under this section. Any change in condition such that a person
				  is no longer eligible to claim a standard permit under this section requires
				  proper authorization under §
										116.110
				  of this title (relating to Applicability). Any changes in representations are
				  subject to the following requirements:
(A)
				  For the addition of a new facility, the owner or operator shall submit a new
				  registration incorporating existing facilities with a fee, in accordance with
				  §
											116.611
				  and §
											116.614 of
				  this title, (relating to Registration to use a Standard Permit and Standard
				  Permit Fees) prior to commencing construction. If the applicable standard
				  permit requires public notice, construction of the new facility or facilities
				  may not commence until the new registration has been issued by the executive
				  director.
(B) For any change in the
				  method of control of emissions, a change in the character of the emissions, or
				  an increase in the discharge of the various emissions, the owner or operator
				  shall submit written notification to the executive director describing the
				  change(s), along with the designated fee, no later than 30 days after the
				  change.
(C) For any other change to
				  the representations, the owner or operator shall submit written notification to
				  the executive director describing the change(s) no later than 30 days after the
				  change.
(D) Any facility registered
				  under a standard permit which contains conditions or procedures for addressing
				  changes to the registered facility which differ from subparagraphs (A) - (C) of
				  this paragraph shall comply with the applicable requirements of the standard
				  permit in place of subparagraphs (A) - (C) of this paragraph.
