FAC.226-Compost Facility Air Permitting-AC24.USCC

The complexity of obtaining air permits for composting facilities in the US is increasing, with more jurisdictions requiring permits due to emissions concerns. This trend, spreading beyond non-attainment areas in California to regions complying with EPA standards, adds costs and delays to facility development. However, proactive measures can mitigate these issues, and regulatory efforts are underway to improve the permitting process. This presentation will cover the history of air permitting for compost facilities, key aspects of the Clean Air Act, successful permitting examples, and an approach based on compost science and certified source tests to foster responsible industry growth.
