General Operating Permit GOP-002A

The Division of Air Quality is announcing a new General Operating Permit (GOP-002A) for “Manufacturing and Materials Handling Equipment”.

The new general operating permit encourages

1) the use of control devices by expanding the applicability to include potential-to-emit after control instead of only before control,

2) allows for multiple emission points and

3) applies potential-to-emit per piece of equipment instead of across all equipment.

This general operating permit is replacing the existing general operating permit GOP-002 Small Emitter General Air Permit (SEGAP). To view the requirements of any general operating permit, go to www.nj.gov/dep/aqpp/gop.html. To register for an available general operating permit, click on the Online Application hyperlink under the General Operating Permit and follow the directions.

The Notice of Availability is scheduled to be published in the April 15, 2019 issue of the New Jersey Register. This new general operating permit will be available on or after April 15, 2019.
