Section R. 336.1201a - General permits to install

(1) The department may, after notice and opportunity for public participation pursuant to section 5511(3) of the act, issue a general permit to install covering numerous similar stationary sources or emission units. A general permit to install shall include terms and conditions which are necessary to assure that the stationary source or emission unit will comply with all applicable requirements and shall be consistent with the permit content requirements of R 336.1205(1)(a). The general permit to install shall also identify criteria by which a stationary source or emission unit may qualify for the general permit to install. The department shall grant the terms and conditions of the general permit to install to stationary sources or emission units that qualify within 30 days of receipt by the department of a complete application. An applicant shall be subject to enforcement action if the department later determines that the stationary source or emission unit does not qualify for the general permit to install.

(2) An owner or operator of a stationary source or emission unit that would qualify for a general permit to install issued by the department pursuant to subrule (1) of this rule shall either apply for coverage under the terms of the general permit to install or apply for a permit to install consistent with R 336.1201. The department may require the use of application forms designed for use with a specific general permit to install issued by the department. The application forms shall include all information necessary to determine qualification for, and to assure compliance with, the general permit to install. Without repeating the public participation process pursuant to subrule (1) of this rule, the department may grant a request by a person for authorization to install and operate a stationary source or emission unit pursuant to a general permit to install.

(3) The department shall maintain, and make available to the public upon request, a list of the persons that have been authorized to install and operate a stationary source or emission unit pursuant to each general permit to install issued by the department.
