At the intersection… (pt. 1)
PATIENCE and HARD WORK! You TIMELY received a DRAFT permit
to construct with the conditions you WANTED, completing the Tier 3, 1-hour NO2 NAAQS modeling, even with a significant impact where (if required) you modeled NEARBY sources.

At the intersection… (pt. 2)
CONGRATS! You TIMELY received a FINAL permit
to construct with the conditions you WANTED, after the agency successfully responded to PUBLIC COMMENTS and there were NO appeals.

What’s the right ISR?

I am holding something in my hand that is … What is it?
I am thinking of a number between 0 and 0.49 … What is it?

NAAQS Modeling
Modeling protocol
1-hour NAAQS air quality modeling triggered – If Tier 1 and 2 do not work,
Tier 3 is pursued, using default 0.50 or a lower, justified alternative
May need ISRs for nearby sources
![Page 13: At the Intersection of NAAQS Modeling, Permitting, and Compliance](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022413/58edd3981a28ab934b8b464d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Permitting
Pre-application efforts
Application completeness determination
Coordinating with AQ modeler, applicant contact
Permit prep & issue

“Magic Wand”
NAAQS Modeling
Modeling protocol addresses the approach and resources for ISRs – project and nearby sources (if applicable)
Bonus: Clear agency protocol expectations.
![Page 29: At the Intersection of NAAQS Modeling, Permitting, and Compliance](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022413/58edd3981a28ab934b8b464d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“Magic Wand” Assurance of properly
conducting Method 7E source test for determining ISR
Bonus: Equipment manufacturers provide a range of ISRs. Common agency and/or source approach to data collection.
Compliance
![Page 30: At the Intersection of NAAQS Modeling, Permitting, and Compliance](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022413/58edd3981a28ab934b8b464d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
“Magic Wand”
Permitting
Common project organizational approach to air permitting, esp. at the intersection
Bonus: An “AP-42” style of ISRs that complements the EPA database.
![Page 31: At the Intersection of NAAQS Modeling, Permitting, and Compliance](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022413/58edd3981a28ab934b8b464d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

REMINDER: Call to Action POPULATE the EPA database
COLLECTIVE cross-communicate within and among - – Agencies, Businesses, Consultants, Test Firms – Equipment manufacturers / representatives
START at the “Source” – Stationary source, source test results – Source test firms – Manufacturer Information
