Fla. Admin. Code Ann. R. 62-213.202 - Responsible Official

(1) Each Title V source must identify a responsible official on each application for Title V permit, permit revision, and permit renewal. For Title V sources with only one responsible official, the permit application form may be used to designate the responsible official. However, when a change in responsible official is needed other than at the time of permit application, a Title V Source with only one responsible official shall submit the Responsible Office Notification (DEP Form No. 62-213.202), herein adopted and incorporated by reference (https://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-12776), effective April, 2021, to change the responsible official.

(2) Each Title V source may designate more than one responsible official, provided a primary responsible official is designated on the Responsible Office Notification (DEP Form No. 62-213.202), herein adopted and incorporated by reference (https://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-12776), effective April, 2021, as responsible for the certifications of all other designated responsible officials. Any action taken by the primary responsible official shall take precedence over any action taken by any other designated responsible official.

(3) Any facility initially designating more than one responsible official or changing the list of responsible officials must submit to the permitting authority a Responsible Official Notification (DEP Form No. 62-213.202), herein adopted and incorporated by reference (https://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-12776), effective April, 2021, designating all responsible officials for a Title V source, stating which responsible official is the primary responsible official, and providing an effective date for any changes to the list of responsible officials and reason(s) for any replacements. Any previously-designated responsible official that is not included in the most recently submitted form will no longer be considered by the permitting authority or compliance authority to be a responsible official.

(4) Each individual listed on the Responsible Official Notification (DEP Form No. 62-213.202), herein adopted and incorporated by reference (https://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-12776), effective April, 2021, must meet at least one of the responsible official qualifications listed on the form. The qualifications are based on the definition of "Responsible Official" given at Rule 62-210.200, F.A.C.

(5) No person shall take any action as a responsible official at a Title V source unless designated a responsible official as required by this rule.

(6) The completed Responsible Official Notification (DEP Form No. 62-213.202), herein adopted and incorporated by reference (https://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-12776), effective April, 2021, may be submitted electronically, but must be submitted to the department's district office or contracted local program office that is the identified permitting authority for the Title V source.
