§ 127.542. Revising an operating permit for cause.

 (a)  Each issued permit shall include provisions specifying the conditions under which the permit will be reopened prior to the expiration of the permit. A permit shall be revised under one or more of the following circumstances:

   (1)  Additional applicable requirements under the Clean Air Act or the act become applicable to a Title V facility with a remaining permit term of 3 or more years. The revision shall be completed within 18 months after promulgation of the applicable requirement. The revision is not required if the effective date of the requirement is later than the date on which the permit is due to expire, unless the original permit or its terms and conditions has been extended.

   (3)  The Department or the EPA determines that the permit contains a mistake or that inaccurate statements were made in establishing the emissions standards or other terms or conditions of the permit.

   (4)  The Administrator of the EPA or the Department determines that the permit will be revised or revoked to assure compliance with the applicable requirements.

 (b)  Proceedings to revise a permit shall follow the same procedures as apply to initial permit issuance and shall affect only parts of the permit for which cause to revise exists. The revision shall be made as expeditiously as practicable.
