RULE 6.2 - STANDARDS FOR PERMITS TO OPERATE
(Amended January 15, 1989)

A. General

The Control Officer shall deny a permit to operate for any new or modified stationary source or any portion thereof to which Rule 6.1 applies unless:

1. The owner or operator of the source has obtained a permit to construct granted pursuant to Rule 6.1; and
2. The Control Officer has determined that the source and any sources which provide offsets have been constructed and/or modified to operate, and emit quantities of air contaminants, consistent with the conditions imposed on their respective permits.
3. Conditions imposed on the permit to construct are also included on the permit to operate to ensure compliance with these rules.

B. Exemptions

The Control Officer shall exempt from the provisions of this rule any stationary source which is a continuing operation, without modification or change in operating conditions, when a permit to operate is required solely because of permit renewal or change of ownership.

C. Definitions

The definitions contained in Rule 6.1 shall be applicable to this rule.

D. Severability

If any portion of this rule is found to be unenforceable, such finding shall have no effect on the enforceability of the remaining portions of the rule which shall continue to be in full force and effect.
