AQD operates a dual permitting system — construction permits and operating permits — to control major and minor sources of air pollution.

• A construction permit application is required before a new source is constructed or an existing source is modified.
• AQD issues the construction permit after it is determined the source is designed to meet applicable rules and pre-construction requirements.
• An operating permit is issued after construction is completed and demonstration is made that the source is capable of meeting applicable emissions limitations and air pollution control requirements.
