DDOE is seeking comments on proposed amendments to the New Source Review (NSR) permitting program, which applies to new and modified major emission sources that have the ability to significantly impact air quality in the District and downwind states. The rulemaking also proposes to add source category permits (commonly referred to as “general permits” in other jurisdictions), which will allow DDOE to issue a single permit for groups of similar sources. Finally, the rulemaking proposes to add requirements for new source review of minor sources.
