The Department of Environmental Quality (Department or DEQ) is proposing to amend the Permit By Rule (PBR) in OAC 252:100-7-60.5, Oil and natural gas sector, in response to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) recently promulgated requirements in 40 C.F.R. Part 60, Subpart OOOOb Standards of Performance for Crude Oil and Natural Gas Facilities for which Construction, Modification or Reconstruction Commenced After December 6, 2022 (NSPS Subpart OOOOb). Additionally, the proposed amendment would allow the use of legally and practicably enforceable (LPE) limits when determining a facility's eligibility for the PBR. The gist of the proposed rule is to clarify source eligibility criteria for the PBR and ensure that the current PBR allows facilities potentially subject to NSPS Subpart OOOOb to take LPE limits to avoid applicability of the federal requirements for certain equipment.
