Utah Admin. Code R307-415-7g - Permit Revision: Reopening for Cause

(1) Each issued permit shall include provisions specifying the conditions under which the permit will be reopened prior to the expiration of the permit. A permit shall be reopened and revised under any of the following circumstances:

(a) New applicable requirements become applicable to a major Part 70 source with a remaining permit term of three or more years. Such a reopening shall be completed not later than 18 months after promulgation of the applicable requirement. No such reopening is required if the effective date of the requirement is later than the date on which the permit is due to expire, unless the terms and conditions of the permit have been extended pursuant to R307-415-7c(3).

(b) Additional requirements, including excess emissions requirements, become applicable to an Title IV affected source under the Acid Rain Program. Upon approval by EPA, excess emissions offset plans shall be deemed to be incorporated into the permit.

(c) The director or EPA determines that the permit contains a material mistake or that inaccurate statements were made in establishing the emissions standards or other terms or conditions of the permit.

(d) EPA or the director determines that the permit must be revised or revoked to assure compliance with the applicable requirements.

(e) Additional applicable requirements are to become effective before the renewal date of the permit and are in conflict with existing permit conditions.

(2) Proceedings to reopen and issue a permit shall follow the same procedures as apply to initial permit issuance and shall affect only those parts of the permit for which cause to reopen exists. Such reopening shall be made as expeditiously as practicable.

(3) Reopenings under (1) above shall not be initiated before a notice of such intent is provided to the Part 70 source by the director at least 30 days in advance of the date that the permit is to be reopened, except that the director may provide a shorter time period in the case of an emergency.
