Air Modeling for Air Permitting
The Division of Air Resource Management’s Office of Permitting and Compliance manages DEP's Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) air permitting program. When a major stationary source of emissions is constructed or modified and it is projected to emit more than a certain amount of air pollutants, the facility must perform an air quality impact analysis to ensure that the project’s future emissions will not cause or contribute to an exceedance of an established air quality standard.
