Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) 2
Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) 2 :
A permitting program for new and modified stationary sources of air pollution located in an area that attains or is unclassified for national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS). The PSD program is designed to ensure that air quality does not degrade beyond those air quality standards or beyond specified incremental amounts. The PSD permitting process requires new and modified facilities above a specified size threshold to be carefully reviewed prior to construction for air quality impacts. PSD also requires those facilities to apply BACTto minimize emissions of air pollutants. A public notification process is conducted prior to issuance of final PSD permits
