Procedures; 116.1050, Multiple Plant Permit Application Fee; 116.1060, Multiple
Plant Permit Renewal; and 116.1070, Delegation. If adopted, the amendments and
new sections would implement the remaining portions of Senate Bill 766, 76th
Legislature, relating to emission fee increases, permits by rule, exemptions from
permitting, de minimis classification for small sources of air contaminants, and
multiple plant permits. Beginning September 1, 2001, emission fees for grandfathered
facilities without pending permit application under Chapter 116 would be applied to
all emissions from the facility and the emission fee rate would triple for those
emissions over 4,000 tons per year and triple each subsequent fiscal year. The
authorizations formerly known as exemptions from permitting would become permits
by rule and would be used to authorize new construction and insignificant changes at
existing facilities. The amendments related to de minimis would allow construction of
very small sources of air contaminants without prior authorization from the
commission. A multiple plant permit would allow the combination of multiple
facilities or sites under one permit provided the facilities and sites were under
common ownership or control. Section 101.333 would be amended to correct an
inadvertent omission of the term "NOx. Sections 106.201, 106.202, and 106.203 of
Chapter 106, Subchapter H, Concrete Batch Plants, would be amended to state that
registrations under those sections would no longer be accepted upon issuance of a
concrete batch plant standard permit. The amendment to Section 116.603 would
correct an incorrect reference. (Beecher Cameron) (Rule Log No. 1999-029B-116-AI). |
