§ 
206-20. Permits required 
(a) Authority to Construct. Any person building, erecting, 
altering or replacing any article, machine, equipment or 
other contrivance, the use of which may cause the 
issuance of air contaminants or laay eliminate or reduce 
or control the issuance of air contaminants, shall first 
obtain a written authority to construct from . the 
Commissioner or his designated representative. This 
authorization is also required for initial construction 
of any emission source required by section 206-51 to

APPLICATION INFORMATION 
GENERAL 
A separate application is required for each unit of basic 
equipment (equipment the use of which may cause the issuance 
of air contaminants). Such a unit may consist of one 
individual item, or a group of two or moio items. A separatf* 
application is also required for each air pollution control 
system (equipment which eliminates or reduces the emission of 
air contaminants). 
with each application for authority to construct and permit to 
operate, the following data, specifications, plans and 
drawings must be submitted in DUPLICATE. 
1. 
EQUIPMENT LOCATION DRAWING: The drawing or sketch 
submitted must be to scale (suggested scale: 1 inch=100 
feet; accuracy of measurements to the nearest 5 feet will 
be satisfactory) and must show at least the following: 
a. 
The property involved and outlines and heights of 
all buildings on it. Identify property lines 
plainly. 
b. 
Location and identification of the proposed 
equipment on the property. 
c. 
Location of the property with respect to streets and 
adjacent properties. Identify adjacent properties. 
2. 
DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT. 
State make, model, size and 
type of either the entire unit or for its major parts. 
3- 
DESCRIPTION OF PROCESS. 
The application must be 
accompanied by a written description of each process to 
be carried out in the equipment of the function of the 
equipment iti>elf in the process. The descriptions must be 
complete and in detail concerning all operations. 
Particular attention must be given to explaining all 
.s.tages in the process where the discharge of any 
materials might contribute in any way to axr pollution. 
All obtained data must be supplied concerning the nature, 
volumes, part-icle sizes, weights and cdncentrations of 
all type of air contaminants that may be discharged at 
H 
each stages in the process. Similarly, control procedures 
^ 
must be described in sufficient detail to show the extent 
o 
of control of air contaminants anticipated in the design. 
o 
Specifying the expected efficiency of the control 
: S 
devices. 
4. 
OPERATING SCHEDULE. 
Specify the hours per day and days 
i 
per week the equipment is to be operated.
