Notice of Intent to Approve Class II General Permit G35-D for Natural Gas Compressor and/or Dehydration Facilities The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection Division of Air Quality (DAQ) is providing notice to the general public of its intent to issue a Class II General Permit for the construction, modification, relocation of and to prevent and control air pollution from the operation of natural gas compressor and/or dehydration facilities pursuant to WV Legislative Rule 45CSR13. The changes to the existing G35-C general permit that are the subject of this public notice consist of the rulings made by the West Virginia Air Quality Board and the addition of regulatory language for engine blowdowns and pigging operations. No emission increases to the already existing emission limits established in General Permit G35-C are being permitted. General Permit G35-D is for natural gas compressor and/or dehydration facilities. Currently, General Permits G30-D, G35-A and G35-C cover natural gas compressor and/or dehydration facilities. These General Permits will continue to exist, however, there will be no future registrations, modifications, or administrative updates allowed to registrations issued under these permits. If a registrant wishes to modify an existing registration under General Permits G30-D, G35-A or G35-C, it must be done so under General Permit G35-D. Provided that the applicant can demonstrate compliance with the requirements, provisions, standards and conditions of this Class II General Permit, the DAQ has determined that all state air quality requirements will be met by any eligible natural gas compressor and/or dehydration facilities. Any natural gas compressor and/or dehydration facility granted Class II General Permit registration by the Director shall not have a potential to emit any criteria pollutant in an amount equal to or greater than 100 tons per year or 10 tons per year of any single hazardous/toxic pollutant or 25 tons per year of any combination of hazardous/toxic pollutants.
