DEP Requiring Any Facility Operating Under A Title V Temporary Air Plan Approval For More Than 12 Months To Submit a Title V Operating Permit On Or Before Nov. 25, 2024

The Department of Environmental Protection published
notice in the July 27 PA Bulletin that it is requiring any facility operating under a temporary Title V Air Quality Plan Approval for more than 12 months to submit an application for a Title V Air Quality permit on or before November 25, 2024. 

The requirement to submit a Title V Operating Permit application within 12 months of beginning operation will also apply to the owners or operators of new or modified Title V facilities authorized and operating under a plan approval after July 27, 2024.

DEP said in the notice the change is required to meet federal Clean Air Act requirements and because submission requirements in state regulations provided two different deadlines.

This submission deadline could impact a number of shale gas facilities like natural gas processing plants, compressor stations, well pads and other air pollution sources.

Read the entire PA Bulletin notice for more information.

Questions regarding this notice may be directed to the DEP Bureau of Air Quality by email to: ra-epair@pa.gov
