Applicability and Jurisdiction
(1) This division applies to all sources
listed in OAR 340-216-8010. This division also applies to Oregon Title V Operating
Permit program sources when an ACDP is required by 340-218-0020 or 340-224-0010.
Sources referred to in 340-216-8010 are subject to fees in 340-216-8020.
(2) Sources in any one of
the categories in OAR 340-216-8010 must obtain a permit. If a source meets the requirements
of more than one of the source categories and the source is not eligible for a Basic
ACDP or a General ACDP that has been authorized by DEQ, then the source must obtain
a Simple or Standard ACDP. Source categories are not listed in alphabetical order.
(a) The commercial and industrial
sources in OAR 340-216-8010 Part A must obtain a Basic ACDP under 340-216-0056 unless
the source chooses to obtain a General, Simple or Standard ACDP. For purposes of
Part A, production and emission parameters are based on the latest consecutive 12
month period, or future projected operation, whichever is higher. Emission cutoffs
are based on actual emissions.
(b) Sources in any one of
the categories in OAR 340-216-8010 Part B must obtain one of the following unless
otherwise allowed in Part B:
(A) A General ACDP, if one
is available for the source classification and the source qualifies for a General
ACDP under OAR 340-216-0060;
(B) A Simple ACDP under OAR
340-216-0064; or
(C) A Standard ACDP under
OAR 340-216-0066 if the source fits one of the criteria of Part C or does not qualify
for a Simple ACDP.
(c) Sources in any one of
the categories in OAR 340-216-8010 Part C must obtain a Standard ACDP under the
procedures set forth in OAR 340-216-0066.
(3) No person may construct,
install, establish, develop or operate any air contaminant source listed in OAR
340-216-8010 without first obtaining an Air Contaminant Discharge Permit (ACDP)
from DEQ or LRAPA and keeping a copy onsite at all times, unless otherwise deferred
from the requirement to obtain an ACDP in subsection (1)(b) or DEQ has granted an
exemption from the requirement to obtain an ACDP under subsection (1)(e ). No person
may continue to operate an air contaminant source if the ACDP expires, or is terminated
or revoked; except as provided in 340-216-0082.
(a) For portable sources,
a single permit may be issued for operating at any area of the state if the permit
includes the requirements from both DEQ and LRAPA. DEQ or LRAPA, depending where
the portable source's corporate offices are located, will be responsible for issuing
the permit. If the corporate office of a portable source is located outside of the
state, DEQ will be responsible for issuing the permit.
(b) An air contaminant source
required to obtain an ACDP or ACDP Attachment pursuant to a NESHAP under OAR division
244 or NSPS under OAR division 238 is not required to submit an application for
an ACDP or ACDP Attachment until four months after the effective date of the EQC’s
adoption of the NESHAP or NSPS, and is not required to obtain an ACDP or ACDP Attachment
until six months after the EQC’s adoption of the NESHAP or NSPS. In addition,
DEQ may defer the requirement to submit an application for, or to obtain an ACDP
or ACDP Attachment, or both, for up to an additional twelve months.
(c) Deferrals of Oregon permitting
requirements do not relieve an air contaminant source from the responsibility of
complying with federal NESHAP or NSPS requirements.
(d) OAR 340-216-0060(1)(b)(A),
340-216-0062(2)(b)(A), 340-216-0064(4)(a), and 340-216-0066(3)(a), do not relieve
a permittee from the responsibility of complying with federal NESHAP or NSPS requirements
that apply to the source even if DEQ has not incorporated such requirements into
the permit.
(e) DEQ may exempt a source
from the requirement to obtain an ACDP if it determines that the source is subject
to only procedural requirements, such as notification that the source is affected
by an NSPS or NESHAP.
(4) No person may construct,
install, establish, or develop any source that will be subject to the Oregon Title
V Operating Permit program without first obtaining an ACDP from DEQ or LRAPA.
(5) No person may modify
any source that has been issued an ACDP without first complying with the requirements
of OAR 340-210-0205 through 340-210-0250.
(6) No person may modify
any source required to have an ACDP such that the source becomes subject to the
Oregon Title V Operating Permit program without complying with the requirements
of OAR 340-210-0205 through 340-210-0250.
(7) No person may increase
emissions above the PSEL by more than the de minimis emission levels specified in
OAR 340-200-0020 without first applying for and obtaining a modified ACDP.
(8) Subject to the requirements
in this division and OAR 340-200-0010(3), LRAPA is designated by the EQC to implement
the rules in this division within its area of jurisdiction.

Types of Permits
(1) Construction ACDP:
(a) A Construction ACDP may
be used for approval of Type 3 changes specified in OAR 340-210-0225 at a source
subject to the ACDP permit requirements in this division.
(b) A Construction ACDP is
required for Type 3 changes specified in OAR 340-210-0225 at sources subject to
the Oregon Title V Operating Permit requirements.
(2) General ACDP. A General
ACDP is a permit for a category of sources for which individual permits are unnecessary
in order to protect the environment, as determined by DEQ. An owner or operator
of a source may be assigned to a General ACDP if DEQ has issued a General ACDP for
the source category and:
(a) The source meets the
qualifications specified in the General ACDP;
(b) DEQ determines that the
source has not had ongoing, recurring, or serious compliance problems; and
(c) DEQ determines that a
General ACDP would appropriately regulate the source.
(3) Short Term Activity ACDP.
A Short Term Activity ACDP is a letter permit that authorizes the activity and includes
any conditions placed upon the method or methods of operation of the activity. DEQ
may issue a Short Term Activity ACDP for unexpected or emergency activities, operations,
or emissions.
(4) Basic ACDP. A Basic ACDP
is a permit that authorizes the regulated source to operate in conformance with
the rules contained in OAR 340 divisions 200 to 268.
(a) Owners and operators
of sources and activities listed in Part A of OAR 340-216-8010 must at a minimum
obtain a Basic ACDP.
(b) Any owner or operator
of a source required to obtain a Basic ACDP may obtain either a Simple or Standard
ACDP.
(5) Simple ACDP.
(a) Owners and operators
of sources and activities listed in OAR 340-216-8010 Part B that do not qualify
for a General ACDP and are not required to obtain a Standard ACDP must, at a minimum,
obtain a Simple ACDP. Any source required to obtain a Simple ACDP may obtain a Standard
ACDP. DEQ may determine that a source is ineligible for a Simple ACDP and must obtain
a Standard ACDP based upon, but not limited to, the following considerations:
(A) The nature, extent, and
toxicity of the source's emissions;
(B) The complexity of the
source and the rules applicable to that source;
(C) The complexity of the
emission controls and potential threat to human health and the environment if the
emission controls fail;
(D) The location of the source;
and
(E) The compliance history
of the source.
(b) A Simple ACDP is a permit
that contains:
(A) All relevant applicable
requirements for source operation, including general ACDP conditions for incorporating
generally applicable requirements;
(B) Generic PSELs for all
regulated pollutants emitted at more than the de minimis emission level according
to OAR 340 division 222;
(C) Testing, monitoring,
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements sufficient to determine compliance with
the PSEL and other emission limits and standards, as necessary; and
(D) A permit duration not
to exceed 5 years.
(6) Standard ACDP:
(a) Applicability.
(A) The owner or operator
of a source listed in Part C of OAR 340-216-8010 must obtain a Standard ACDP.
(B) The owner or operator
of a source listed in Part B of OAR 340-216-8010 that does not qualify for a General
ACDP or Simple ACDP must obtain a Standard ACDP.
(C) The owner or operator
of a source not required to obtain a Standard ACDP may obtain a Standard ACDP.
(b) A Standard ACDP is a
permit that contains:
(A) All applicable requirements,
including general ACDP conditions for incorporating generally applicable requirements;
(B) Source specific PSELs
or Generic PSEL levels, whichever are applicable, as specified in OAR 340 division
222;
(C) Testing, monitoring,
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements sufficient to determine compliance with
the PSEL and other emission limits and standards, as necessary; and
(D) A permit duration not
to exceed 5 years.

Construction ACDP
(1) Purpose. A Construction ACDP is
a permit for approval of Type 3 construction or modification changes as specified
in OAR 340-210-0225 and 340-210-0240. The Construction ACDP includes requirements
for the construction or modification of stationary sources or air pollution control
devices and does not by itself provide authorization to operate the new construction
or modification. A new or modified Standard ACDP or Oregon Title V Operating Permit
is required before operation of the new construction or modification. A Construction
ACDP may be used for the following situations:
(a) For complex construction
or modification projects that require an extended period of time to construct, the
Construction ACDP may provide construction approval faster than issuance of a Standard
ACDP or modified Standard ACDP because the operating requirements would not need
to be included in the permit.
(b) For Oregon Title V Operating
Permit sources, the Construction ACDP may include the requirements of OAR 340-218-0050
and follow the external review procedures in OAR 340-218-0210 and 340-218-0230 so
that the requirements may later be incorporated into the Oregon Title V Operating
Permit by an administrative amendment. If the applicant elects to incorporate the
Construction ACDP by administrative amendment, all of the application submittal,
permit content, and permit issuance requirements of OAR 340 division 218 must be
met for the Construction ACDP.
(2) Application requirements.
Any person requesting a Construction ACDP must:
(a) Submit an application
according to OAR 340-216-0040 and provide the information specified in 340-216-0040(1)
as it relates to the proposed new construction or modification; and
(b) Provide a list of any
applicable requirements related to the new construction or modification.
(3) Fees. Applicants for
a Construction ACDP must pay the fees in OAR 340-216-8020.
(4) Permit content. A Construction
ACDP must include at least the following:
(a) A requirement that construction
must commence within 18 months after the permit is issued if required by OAR 340-224-0030(4);
(b) A requirement to construct
according to approved plans;
(c) A requirement to comply
with all applicable requirements;
(d) Emission limits for affected
stationary sources;
(e) Performance standards
for affected stationary sources and air pollution control devices;
(f) Performance test requirements;
(g) Monitoring requirements,
if specialized equipment is required (e.g., continuous monitoring systems);
(h) Notification and reporting
requirements (construction status reports, startup dates, source test plans, CEMS
performance specification testing plans, etc.);
(i) General ACDP conditions
for incorporating generally applicable requirements;
(j) A requirement to modify
the operating permit before commencing operation of the new construction or modification;
(k) A permit expiration date
of no more than 5 years; and
(l) Oregon Title V Permit
requirements as specified in OAR 340-218-0050, if the applicant requests the external
review procedures in 340-218-0210 and 340-218-0230.
(5) Permit issuance procedures:
(a) A Construction ACDP requires
that DEQ provide public notice according to OAR 340 division 209 as a Category III
permit action.
(b) For sources subject to
the Oregon Title V Operating Permit program, the applicant may ask for the external
review procedures in OAR 340-218-0210 and 340-218-0230 in addition to the requirements
of OAR 340 division 209 to allow the Construction ACDP to be incorporated into the
Oregon Title V Operating Permit at a later date by an administrative amendment provided
the requirements of subsection (1)(b) are met.
(c) Issuance of a modified
Construction ACDP requires the following public notice, as applicable:
(A) Public notice as a Category
I permit action under OAR 340 division 209 for non-technical modifications and basic
and simple technical modifications; or
(B) Public notice as a Category
II permit action under OAR 340 division 209 for moderate and complex technical modifications.
(6) Construction ACDPs may
not be renewed.

General ACDP Attachments
(1) Purpose. This rule allows a source
to be assigned to one General ACDP and one or more General ACDP Attachments, as
long as the General ACDP and General ACDP Attachment contain all requirements applicable
to the source. This would allow a source to avoid having to obtain a more costly
Simple or Standard ACDP if there are no General ACDPs that contain all requirements
applicable to the source.
(2) Applicability.
(a) DEQ may issue a General
ACDP Attachment under the following circumstances:
(A) There are multiple sources
that involve the same or substantially similar types of operations;
(B) All requirements applicable
to the covered operations can be contained in a General ACDP Attachment;
(C) The emission limitations,
monitoring, recordkeeping, reporting and other enforceable conditions are the same
for all operations covered by the General ACDP Attachment;
(D) The regulated pollutants
emitted are of the same type for all covered operations. If a General ACDP and a
General ACDP Attachment cannot address all activities at a source, the owner or
operator of the source must apply for a Simple or Standard ACDP according to this
division.
(b) Attachment content. Each
General ACDP Attachment must include the following:
(A) All relevant requirements
for the operations covered by the General ACDP Attachment, excluding any federal
requirements not adopted by the EQC;
(B) Testing, monitoring,
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements necessary to ensure compliance with the
applicable emissions limits and standards; and
(C) An attachment expiration
date not to exceed 10 years from the date of issuance.
(c) Attachment issuance public
notice procedures: A General ACDP Attachment requires public notice as a Category
II permit action according to OAR 340 division 209.
(d) DEQ will retain all General
ACDP Attachments on file and make them available for public review at DEQ's headquarters.
(3) Source assignment:
(a) Application requirements.
Any person requesting to be assigned to a General ACDP Attachment must submit a
written application for each requested General ACDP Attachment that specifies the
requested General ACDP Attachment and shows that the source qualifies for the requested
General ACDP Attachment.
(b) Fees. Applicants must
pay the fees in OAR 340-216-8020 for each assigned General ACDP Attachment. The
fee class for each General ACDP Attachment is Fee Class Five.
(c) Assignment procedures:
(A) Assignment to a General
ACDP Attachment is a Category I permit action and is subject to the Category I public
notice requirements under OAR 340 division 209.
(B) A person is not a permittee
under the General ACDP Attachment until DEQ assigns the General ACDP Attachment
to the person.
(C) Assignment to a General
ACDP Attachment terminates when the General ACDP Attachment expires or is modified,
terminated or revoked.
(D) A source may not be assigned
to a General ACDP Attachment for a source category in a higher annual fee class
than the General ACDP to which the source is currently assigned. Instead a source
must be reassigned to the General ACDP for the source category in the higher annual
fee class according to OAR 340-216-0060(2)(c)(E) and may be assigned to one or more
General ACDP Attachments associated with source categories in an equal or lower
annual fee class.
(d) If all activities at
a source cannot be addressed by a General ACDP and General ACDP Attachments, the
owner or operator of the source must apply for a Simple or Standard ACDP according
to this division.

(B) An analysis of the air
quality and, for federal major sources only, the visibility impacts of the major
source or major modification, including meteorological and topographical data, specific
details of models used, and other information necessary to estimate air quality
impacts; and
(C) An analysis of the air
quality and, for federal major sources only, the visibility impacts, and the nature
and extent of all commercial, residential, industrial, and other source emission
growth, which has occurred since the baseline concentration year in the area the
major source or major modification would affect.
(2) Fees. Applicants for
a Standard ACDP must pay the fees in OAR 340-216-8020.
(3) Permit content. Each
Standard ACDP must include the following:
(a) All applicable requirements,

Simple and Standard ACDP Attachments
(1) Purpose. This rule allows DEQ to
add new requirements to existing Simple or Standard ACDPs by assigning the source
to an ACDP Attachment issued under section (2). An ACDP Attachment would apply to
an affected source until the new requirements are incorporated into the source’s
Simple or Standard ACDP at the next permit renewal or at the time of permit modification.
(2) ACDP Attachment issuance
procedures:
(a) An ACDP Attachment requires
public notice as a Category II permit action under OAR 340 division 209, except
that ACDP Attachments to Simple or Standard ACDPs require notice as Category I permit
actions.
(b) DEQ may issue an ACDP
Attachment when there are multiple sources that are subject to the new requirements.
(c) Attachment content. Each
ACDP Attachment must include the following:
(A) Testing, monitoring,
recordkeeping, and reporting requirements necessary to ensure compliance with the
applicable emissions limits and standards; and
(B) An attachment expiration
date not to exceed 5 years from the date of issuance.
(3) Assignment to ACDP Attachment:
(a) A source is not a permittee
under the ACDP Attachment until DEQ assigns the ACDP Attachment to the source.
(b) The ACDP Attachment is
removed from the Simple or Standards ACDP when the requirements of the ACDP Attachment
are incorporated into the source’s Simple or Standard ACDP at the time of
renewal or of a modification.
(c) If an EPA or DEQ action
causes a source to be subject to the requirements in an ACDP Attachment, assignment
to the ACDP Attachment is a DEQ initiated modification to the Simple or Standard
ACDP and the permittee is not required to submit an application or pay fees for
the permit action. In such case, DEQ would notify the permittee of the proposed
permitting action and the permittee may object to the permit action if the permittee
demonstrates that the source is not subject to the requirements of the ACDP Attachment.

A single or contiguous site containing
activities or processes that are covered by more than one General ACDP, or a source
that contains processes or activities listed in more than one part of OAR 340-216-8010
may obtain a Standard ACDP, even if not otherwise required to obtain a Standard
ACDP under this division.

Termination or Revocation of an
ACDP
(1) Expiration.
(a) A source may not be operated
after the expiration date of a permit, unless any of the following occur prior to
the expiration date of the permit:
(A) A timely and complete
application for renewal has been submitted; or
(B) Another type of permit,
ACDP or Oregon Title V Operating Permit, has been issued authorizing operation of
the source.
(b) If a timely and complete
renewal application has been submitted, the existing permit will remain in effect
until final action has been taken on the renewal application to issue or deny a
permit.
(c) For a source operating
under an ACDP or Oregon Title V Operating Permit, a requirement established in an
earlier ACDP remains in effect notwithstanding expiration of the ACDP, unless the
provision expires by its terms or unless the provision is modified or terminated
according to the procedures used to establish the requirement initially.
(2) Automatic Termination.
A permit is automatically terminated upon:
(a) Issuance of a renewal
or new ACDP for the same activity or operation;
(b) Written request of the
permittee, if DEQ determines that a permit is no longer required;
(c) Failure to submit a timely
application for permit renewal. Termination is effective on the permit expiration
date; or
(d) Failure to pay annual
fees within 90 days of invoice by DEQ, unless prior arrangements for payment have
been approved in writing by DEQ.
(3) Reinstatement of Terminated
Permit: A permit automatically terminated under any of subsections (2)(b) through
(2)(d) may only be reinstated by the permittee by applying for a new permit. The
permittee must also pay the applicable new source permit application fees in this
division, unless the owner or operator submits the renewal application within three
months of the permit expiration date.
(4) Revocation:
(a) If DEQ determines that
a permittee is in noncompliance with the terms of the permit, submitted false information
in the application or other required documentation, or is in violation of any applicable
rule or statute, DEQ may revoke the permit. DEQ will provide notice of the intent
to revoke the permit to the permittee under OAR 340-011-0525. The notice will include
the reasons why the permit will be revoked, and include an opportunity for the permittee
to request a contested case hearing prior to the revocation. A permittee’s
written request for hearing must be received by DEQ within 60 days from service
of the notice on the permittee, and must state the grounds of the request. The hearing
will be conducted as a contested case hearing under ORS 183.413 through 183.470
and OAR 340 division 011. The permit will continue in effect until the 60th day
after service of the notice on the permittee, if the permittee does not timely request
a hearing, or until a final order is issued if the permittee timely requests a hearing.
(b) If DEQ finds there is
a serious danger to the public health, safety or the environment caused by a permittee's
activities, DEQ may immediately revoke or refuse to renew the permit without prior
notice or opportunity for a hearing. If no advance notice is provided, notification
will be provided to the permittee as soon as possible under OAR 340-011-0525. The
notification will set forth the specific reasons for the revocation or refusal to
renew and will provide an opportunity for the permittee to request a contested case
hearing for review of the revocation or refusal to renew. A permittee’s written
request for hearing must be received by DEQ within 90 days of service of the notice
on the permittee and must state the grounds for the request. The hearing will be
conducted as a contested case hearing under ORS 183.413 through 183.470 and OAR
340 division 011. The revocation or refusal to renew becomes final without further
action by DEQ if a request for a hearing is not received within the 90 days. If
a request for a hearing is timely received, the revocation or refusal to renew will
remain in place until issuance of a final order.

Department Initiated Modification
If DEQ determines it is appropriate
to modify an ACDP, other than a General ACDP, DEQ will notify the permittee by regular,
registered or certified mail of the modification and will include the proposed modification
and the reasons for the modification. The modification will become effective upon
mailing unless the permittee requests a contested case hearing within 20 days. A
request for hearing must be made in writing and must include the grounds for the
request. The hearing will be conducted as a contested case hearing under ORS 183.413
through 183.470 and OAR 340 division 011. If a hearing is requested, the existing
permit will remain in effect until after a final order is issued following the hearing.

Temporary Closure
(1) A permittees that temporarily suspends
activities for which an ACDP is required may apply for a fee reduction due to temporary
closure. However, the anticipated period of closure must exceed six months and must
not be due to regular maintenance or seasonal limitations.
(2) DEQ will prorate annual
fees for temporary closure based on the length of the closure in a calendar year,
but will not be less than one half of the regular annual fee for the source.
(3) A source who has received
Department approval for payment of the temporary closure fee must obtain authorization
from DEQ prior to resuming permitted activities. An owner or operator of the source
must submit written notification, together with the prorated annual fee for the
remaining months of the year, to DEQ at least thirty (30) days before startup and
specify in the notification the earliest anticipated startup date.
