The Department is revising the following rules under Chapter 62-213, F.A.C. (Operation Permits for Major Sources of Air Pollution): 

RULE NOS:.       RULE TITLES

62-213.202           Responsible Official

62-213.205           Annual Emissions Fee

62-213.400           Permits and Permit Revisions Required

62-213.405           Concurrent Processing of Permit Applications

62-213.410           Changes Without Permit Revisions

62-213.412           Immediate Implementation Pending Revision Process

62-213.413           Fast-Track Revisions of Acid Rain Parts

62-213.420           Permit Applications

62-213.430           Permit Issuance, Renewal, and Revision

62-213.440           Permit Content

62-213.450           Permit Review by EPA and Affected States

 

The revisions will conform the adoption by reference rule language to Department of State requirements, together with other corrective and clarifying amendments. DARM reviewed these rule sections as a component of the Department’s statutory rule review process and identified these rules as having outdated rule language and rule language updates necessary to meet new Administrative Procedures Act (APA) requirements. Revisions to Rule 62-213.205, F.A.C., will reflect recent amendments to Section 403.0872, F.S., which changed the emissions fee payment deadline to June 30 each year. Revisions to Rule 62-213.440, F.A.C., will restore certain affirmative defense provisions consistent with U.S. EPA compliance and enforcement policies applicable to major sources of air pollution under the Clean Air Act.
