About this file

This is an Operating Permit Fees attachment document from a state Bureau of Air, establishing fee structures for air quality permits and emissions compliance. The document presents a tiered fee schedule for Title V (CAAPP) operating permits based on annual emissions thresholds. Facilities with emissions at or below 100 tons per year (TPY) are assessed a minimum annual fee of $2,150. Facilities with emissions exceeding 100 TPY but not exceeding 13,674 TPY are charged $21.50 per ton of emissions annually. Facilities with emissions exceeding 13,674 TPY face a maximum annual fee of $294,000, with the document noting additional FESOP (Federally Enforceable State Operating Permit) fees apply.

The fee structure represents the current operating permit pricing model implemented by the state air quality regulatory authority. This tiered approach incentivizes emissions reductions by capping fees at the highest emission level, while ensuring smaller operations pay proportionally lower costs. The fees fund the state's air permitting and compliance monitoring programs and reflect the administrative and enforcement costs associated with Title V operating permits required under federal Clean Air Act regulations.
