(2) Fees. Applicants for a new or modified Simple ACDP must pay the fees in OAR 340-216-8020. Applicants for a new Simple ACDP must initially pay the High Annual Fee. Once the initial permit is issued, annual fees for Simple ACDPs will be assessed based on the following:

(a) Low Fee - A source may qualify for the low fee if:

(i) Category 7. Asphalt felt and coatings;

(ii) Category 13. Boilers and other fuel burning equipment (can be combined with category 27. Electric power generation);

(iii) Category 27. Electric power generation;

(iv) Category 33. Galvanizing & pipe coating;

(x) Category 62. Perchloroethylene dry cleaning;

(xi) Category 73. Secondary smelting and/or refining of ferrous and non-ferrous metals; or

(xii) Category 85. All other sources not listed in OAR 340-216-8010 (can be combined with category 27. Electric Power Generation); and

(B) The actual emissions from the calendar year immediately preceding the invoice date are less than five tons/year of PM10 in a PM10 nonattainment or maintenance area or PM2.5 in a PM2.5 nonattainment or maintenance area, and less than 10 tons/year for each criteria pollutant; and

(C) The source is not creating a nuisance under OAR 340-208-0310 or 340-208-0450.

(b) High Fee - Any source required to have a Simple ACDP (OAR 340-216-8010 Part B) that does not qualify for the low fee under subsection (2)(a) will be assessed the high fee.

(c) If DEQ determines that a source was invoiced for the low annual fee but does not meet the low fee criteria outlined above, the source will be required to pay the difference between the low and high fees, plus applicable late fees in OAR 340-216-8020 Part 4. Late fees start upon issuance of the initial invoice. In this case, DEQ will issue a new invoice specifying applicable fees.

(3) Permit Content. Each Simple ACDP must include the following:

(a) All relevant applicable requirements for source operation, including general ACDP conditions for incorporating generally applicable requirements, but excluding any federal requirements not adopted by the EQC;

(b) Generic PSELs for all regulated pollutants emitted at more than the de minimis emission level according to OAR 340 division 222;

(c) Testing, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements sufficient to determine compliance with the PSEL and other emission limits and standards, as necessary; and

(d) A permit duration not to exceed 5 years.

(4) Permit issuance public notice procedures:

(a) Issuance of a new or renewed Simple ACDP requires public notice as a Category II permit according to OAR 340 division 209.

(b) Issuance of a modification to a Simple ACDP requires one of the following procedures, as applicable:

(A) Public notice as a Category I permit action for non-technical and basic and simple technical modifications according to OAR 340 division 209; or

(B) Public notice as a Category II permit action for moderate and complex technical modifications according to OAR 340 division 209.
