Stack Title Permit For Free

The enactment of the Clean Air Act of 1970 (1970 CAA) resulted in a major shift in the federal government's role in air pollution control. This legislation authorized the development of comprehensive federal and state regulations to limit emissions from both stationary (industrial) sources and mobile sources.

Any location that emits more than 10 tons pe year of a hazardous air pollutant or 25 tons per year of any combination of hazardous air pollutants must obtain a Title V Federal Operating Permit through the TCEQ.

Commercial and industrial businesses that emit large amounts of air pollution must get an air operating permit. An air operating permit is a master document that lists all of the air pollution requirements that apply to a business or industry. Ecology and other clean air agencies in Washington issue these permits.

Title III of the 1990 Amendments to the Clean Air Act (CAA) expanded the 1970 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAPs). "Toxic air pollutants" or "air toxics" are other names for these pollutants.

Title V is a federal program designed to standardize air quality permits and the permitting process for major sources of emissions across the country. which requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to establish a national, operating permit program.

Title IV of the Act created a two-phased plan, administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), to reduce acid rain in the United States. Phase I runs from 1995 through 1999, and Phase II, which is more stringent than Phase I, begins in 2000.

To protect public health and welfare nationwide, the CAA requires EPA to establish National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for six common air pollutants also known as ?criteria? air pollutants. The pollutants are particulate matter, ozone, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and lead.
