*Nonattainment areas are addressed through regulations at the county level
in Clark
and Washoe
counties. State regulations apply to attainment areas only.
DE MINIMIS EXEMPTIONS:
Internal combustion engines smaller than 250 hp are exempt from permitting. Larger engines are exempted if
they agree to a 100 hour operating limit. No state notification is necessary, although a written log must be kept for at
least five years.
MINOR SOURCE PERMITING:
Source that are not exempt must obtain a minor source permit. The permit will include a 20% opacity limit and
a 0.05% fuel sulfur limit for diesel burning units. The permit will also include operating hour and fuel limits
to ensure that the source remains below the minor source threshold.
There is no public comment period and the entire permitting process takes about 70 days.
MAJOR NSR/PSD PERMITTING:
A potential to emit 250 tons per year of a criteria pollutant triggers PSD in attainment areas.
TREATMENT OF EMERGENCY ENGINES:
Units that agree to operate less than 100 hours per year are exempt from permitting. An emergency
generator that is owned or operated by a Class II source and whose potential to emit is calculated
on the basis of less than 500 hours of operation does not qualify as an insignificant activity.
In all counties with a population under 200,000 the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada is responsible
for reviewing and approving siting applications. In the two counties with populations above 200,000,
Washoe and Clark, applications are considered and siting is approved by the County Air Quality Boards
and other local agencies. In all counties, the applicant requests a permit under the Utility Environmental
Permit Act (UEPA) from the Public Utilities Commission of. Nevada. The Commission has 150 days to review
and act on the application.
