Helpful Definitions from the Federal Indian Country Minor NSR Rule (40 CFR 49.152) - This is not a comprehensive list. • Modification means any physical or operational change at a source that would cause an increase in the allowable emissions of the affected emissions units for any regulated NSR pollutant or that would cause the emission of any regulated NSR pollutant not previously emitted. [40 CFR49.152(d)] The following exemptions apply: (1) A physical or operational change does not include routine maintenance, repair, or replacement. (2) An increase in the hours of operation or in the production rate is not considered an operational change unless such increase is prohibited under any federally-enforceable permit condition orother permit condition that is enforceable as a practical matter. (3) A change in ownership at a source is not considered a modification. • Potential to Emit (PTE) means the maximum capacity of a source to emit a pollutant under its physical and operational design. Any physical or operational limitation on the capacity of the source to emita pollutant, including air pollution control equipment and restrictions on hours of operation or on thetype or amount of material combusted, stored or processed, shall be treated as part of its design ifthe limitation or the effect it would have on emissions is enforceable as a practical matter. Secondary emissions, as defined at 40 CFR 52.21(b)(18), do not count in determining the PTE ofa source. £ Q V iS * VpRO^0 Instructions: Auto Body and Miscellaneous Surface Coating Operations Version 1.0 Page 1 of 5 ------- Information collected on notifications includes the following: Section 1: Contact Information 1.

Hazardous Air Pollutant Status: Indicate whether your source is a major source for purposes of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions. If your source is a major source for HAP, then the source is not eligible for this Permit by Rule. 15. Ozone Attainment Status: Indicate if this facility is located in an ozone nonattainment area and specify the classification of the ozone nonattainment area. If part of a tribe's area is designated as attainment and another part as nonattainment, the answer to this question should be based on the designation where the source would be located. If the source straddles the two areas, the more stringent classification applies. Information on the ozone attainment status of the area where your facility is located can be found at: https://www.epa.gov/green-book. Please contact your reviewing authority if you have questions about an area's attainment status. 16. Exemption from the Minor NSR Program: For a new facility, calculate the PTE of all proposed emission units and determine if the proposed construction is below the applicability thresholds in the Federal Indian Country Minor NSR Rule (the thresholds listed in Table 1 to 40 CFR 49.153). For a modificationto your existing facility, calculate the emissions increase from your new or modified emission unitsand determine if the proposed construction or modification is below the thresholds listed. For a new emissions unit, the emissions change is the PTE of the new unit. For modified emissions units, the emissions change is the change in allowable emissions of the unit. You only need to consider the thresholds for nonattainment areas if your source is located in an area designated nonattainment. If in a nonattainment area, then you only need to considerthe nonattainment threshold for the pollutant(s) for which the area is designated nonattainment. If the PTE of your new facility or the emissions increase at your existing facility is below the applicable thresholds listed for ALL pollutants, the new or modified source is exempt from the NSR minor program. You do not need a permit for this source. The EPA is providing a PTE calculator to assist with this task. The calculator is available online at: https://www.epa.gov/tribal-air/tribal-minor-new-source-review. 17. Qualification for Permit by Rule - Facility in Attainment Area: If located in an attainment area, calculate the PTE of your entire facility (include new, modified, and existing units) and determine if the facility is below the NSR major source threshold of 250 tons per year (tpy). If the PTE of the proposed facility is equal or above 250 tpy for ANY pollutant, this construction or modification project does not qualifyfor this Permit by Rule. The EPA is providing a PTE calculator to assist with this task. The calculator is available online at: https://www.epa.gov/tribal-air/tribal-minor-new-source-review. 18. Qualification for Permit by Rule - Facility in Nonattainment Area: If located in a nonattainment area, calculate the PTE of your entire facility (include new, modified, and existing units) and determine if the facility is below the NSR major source thresholds listed. Note the NSR major source classification is pollutant specific. You only need to consider the nonattainment area thresholds for the particular pollutants for which the area is designated as nonattainment. If the PTE of the proposed facility is equal to or above the threshold for ANY pollutant for which the area is designated as nonattainment then this Instructions: Auto Body and Miscellaneous Surface Coating Operations Version 1.0 Page 3 of 5 ------- new or modified source does not qualify for a permit by rule.
