Compliance
|
The purpose of the Bureau of Air Pollution Control's (BAPC) Compliance and Enforcement Branch is to prevent deterioration of the air quality by ensuring that all sources operate in compliance with all applicable Federal and State air quality rules and regulations. The Compliance and Enforcement Branch conducts unannounced inspections of the permitted sources, observes and reviews source test data, excess emission reports, compliance certification reports, and investigates air quality complaints to determine compliance with the applicable air quality regulations. |
|
|
|
When it has been determined a source is out of compliance, appropriate enforcement actions are taken. Enforcement actions include warnings, corrective action measures, compliance orders, stop orders, and notices of alleged violations (NOAV). Any enforcement actions with penalties are negotiated in a consistent manner utilizing the BAPC penalty policy and are ratified by the State Environmental Commission (SEC). The State does not regulate or permit facilities in Washoe or Clark Counties with the exception of specific power generation facilities. |
