SUMMARY: This Chapter regulates air emissions from Concrete Batch Plants that are subject to State air emissions standards. Owners and operators of Concrete Batch Plants may obtain specific regulatory coverage under this General Permit regulation in lieu of an individual air emission license if their facility qualifies as a minor source of air emissions. A Concrete Batch Plant General Permit Number (GPN) for each unit may be obtained by submitting an application with Notification of Intent to Comply (NOITC) attesting to their formal agreement to abide by all conditions of this Chapter. Generator sets and small boilers and hot water heaters do not require a separate GPN but are subject to the provisions of the General Permit when associated with the operations of a concrete batch plant. If construction, modification or operation of a concrete batch plant would not comply with all conditions of this regulation, the owner must apply for and obtain an air emission license pursuant to 06-096 CMR Ch. Ch. 115 before beginning the actual construction, modification, or operation of the air emissions source.
