Simplifying the NSR Permitting Process: Key Steps and Requirements

This guide outlines the simplified process for New Source Review (NSR) permitting, discussing critical questions such as whether proposed emissions meet applicable thresholds, the attainment status of the area concerning NAAQS, and the permit type (new or modification). The process includes permit application submission, review of proposed control technologies, and public hearing requirements. Following the draft and final permit issuance, there is a 30-day comment period and an appeal process involving EPA’s Environmental Appeals Board and potentially Federal Court, ensuring comprehensive oversight and compliance.
