Off-Permit Change Notification Instructions

EP recommends that the permittee contact DARM to discuss any prospective off-permit change prior to submitting a change notification. If DEP subsequently determines that a change does not qualify as an off-permit change, and the permittee has already made the change, the facility may be subject to enforcement for having failed to obtain a required AC permit or Title V permit revision. Pursuant to Rule 62-213.410, F.A.C., the permittee may submit an applicability determination requesting that DARM verify that the proposed change qualifies as an off-permit change. The permit shield does not extend to off-permit changes, and the permittee must certify compliance with the existing permit terms on its annual compliance certification.
