Air Permit and Compliance Policy and Guidance

Air Management permit and compliance engineers have extensive regulatory requirements and policy and guidance documents that they use to review air permit applications and determine if a facility is in compliance with applicable regulations. This page provides links to air policy and guidance documents for both construction and operation permits.

The majority of the policy and guidance documents are prepared as memorandums and developed internally by air management teams and management supervisors. They address technical issues and provide consistency in the air program. The air program also use memorandums from EPA on technical and procedural issues.

The information contained in some of these documents may be beneficial to businesses submitting an air permit application and other data to the Air Management Bureau. They explain technical and procedural requirements for data that is required to be submitted and outline what factors or criteria will be used to evaluate the data. The documents may also be beneficial to business in determining compliance with applicable air regulations.
