NR 407.05(1)(1) Applications for operation permits and renewals of operation permits shall be made on forms supplied by the department for these purposes and supplemented with other materials as indicated on the forms. The forms may be supplied by the department in an electronic format, such as on a computer disk, or on line, if so requested by the applicant.

NR 407.05 NoteNote: Application forms may be obtained from the Department Regional Headquarters or Service Center offices or from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Bureau of Air Management, PO Box 7921, Madison WI 53707-7921, Attention: operation permits. The internet web address is: http://dnr.wi.gov/topic/AirPermits/Forms.html.

NR 407.05(2)(2) Application materials may be submitted on paper or in an electronic format. The applicant shall submit all forms and other required materials, as indicated on the forms. When electing to submit materials on paper, the applicant shall submit the materials to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Bureau of Air Management, PO Box 7921, Madison WI 53707-7921, Attention: Operation permits.

NR 407.05(3)(3) The application forms shall be signed by a responsible official of the stationary source designated by the source for this purpose. In the case of an electronic format application, a form supplied with the electronic format shall be signed in accordance with this subsection and returned to the department with the electronic format application.

Fugitive emissions from emissions units, operations, and activities shall be included in the permit application in the same manner as stack emissions, regardless of whether the source category in question is included in the list of sources contained in the definition of major source. Maximum theoretical fugitive emissions shall be calculated using average operating conditions and average weather conditions. Only sources that manufacture or treat pesticides, rodenticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, or pharmaceuticals shall include emissions of air contaminants identified as falling within the categories in Table 3 in permit applications. When preparing an application, the owner or operator of a facility may rely on information in an approved material safety data sheet.

NR 407.05(4)(c)9.a.a. Any emissions unit, operation, or activity that has, for each air contaminant, maximum theoretical emissions that are less than the level specified in Table 3. Multiple emissions units, operations, and activities that perform identical or similar functions shall be combined in determining the applicability of the exemption under this subd. 9. a.

NR 407.05(4)(c)9.b.b. If the maximum theoretical emissions of any air contaminants listed in Table 3 from all emission units, operations, or activities at a facility are less than 5 times the level specified in Table 3 for those air contaminants, any emissions unit, operation, or activity that emits only those air contaminants.
