(3) When notified in writing by DEQ, the owner or operator of an existing source that must perform a risk assessment is required to pay the applicable existing source call-in fee in OAR 340-216-8030 Table 3 within 30 days of receiving DEQ notification.

(4) Owners or operators of new or reconstructed sources must pay the applicable new source consulting fee and the applicable specific activity fees in OAR 340-216-8030 Table 3 with the permit application.

(5) Any owner or operator required to apply for a Toxic Air Contaminant Permit Addendum must also submit the applicable Cleaner Air Oregon Specific Activity Fees specified in OAR 340-216-8030 Table 3 to DEQ in accordance with OAR 340-245-0030.

(a) The fees in OAR 340-216-8030 Table 3 are additive in most cases;

(b) A TBACT/TLAER Review fee will be due to DEQ per TEU. When reviewing multiple similar TEUs, DEQ may elect to waive additional TEU review fees for multiple similar TEU reviews if the TEUs have similar emissions and emission rates;

(c) If one TEU requires two different air pollution control devices because it emits different types of toxic air contaminants (e.g., particulate matter and volatile organic compounds), then two TBACT/TLAER Review fees will be due and payable to DEQ;

(d) The individual TEU fees can be additive or charged individually, depending on the situation. If an owner or operator is constructing or modifying multiple, identical TEUs, then one TEU Risk Assessment fee may be charged. If the TEUs were not identical, then multiple TEU Risk Assessment fees will be due and payable to DEQ;

(e) A community engagement fee of high, medium, or low for each meeting, will be due to DEQ based on DEQ's determination of the complexity and nature of the needed outreach and engagement activities; and

(f) A source test fee is required when an owner or operator submits a source test report for DEQ review under this division.

(A) The complex source test review fee is for multiple TEUs and multiple toxic air contaminant test methods;

(B) The moderate source test review fee is for a single TEU and multiple toxic air contaminant test methods; and

(C) The simple source test review fee is for a single TEU and a single toxic air contaminant test method.
