OAR 340-216-0068: 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 issuance requires public notice as a Category II permit action under OAR chapter 340, division 209. Assigning 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. [NOTE: This rule is included in the State of Oregon Clean Air Act Implementation Plan that EQC adopted under OAR 340-200-0040.]
