REQUIREMENTS

WHAT IS A WHAT IS A PERMITPERMIT??
The Implementing Rules and
Regulation (IRR) of the
Philippine Clean Air Act (DAO
2000-81) defines permit to be..
“legal authorization to engage
in or conduct any construction,
operation, modification, or
expansion of any installation,
operation or activity which will
be reasonably expected to be a
source of pollution” (air
pollution in this case)

Outline Outline
•Permits Required
•Filing of fees for Application
•Application for Permit to Operate
•Action on the Application for PTO
•Te mporary Permit to Operate
•Grounds for Suspension or Revocation of Permit
•Posting of Permit

Rule XIX. Sec. 1 of the DAO 2000-
81 (IRR of RA 8749 or the
Philippine Clean Air Act of 1999) as
amended by DAO 2004-26…
“All sources of air pollution subject
to these Implementing Rules and
Regulations must have a valid
Permit to Operate issued by the
Environmental Management
Bureau (EMB) Regional Director.”

–A boiler rated at 251 Hp or greater;
–A diesel generator rated at 1,250 Kw or
greater (regardless of its frequency of
operation); or
- Any other source that has the potential
to emit 100 tonnes or more per year of
air pollutant regulated under RA8749.

Medium-sized sourceMedium-sized source
•A boiler rated at 100 to 250 Hp;

circumstances surrounding its location, use
and operation, as to contribute significantly to
the air pollution (ambient and source emission
standards).

Permitting PolicyPermitting Policy
•Applicants should bear the costs of
demonstrating compliance
•Consistent with the “polluter pay” principle
•Permitting should ensure all emission
sources comply with the Act, especially the
standards
•EMB has a legal duty to ensure a source complies
before it is permitted to operate

Permitting PolicyPermitting Policy
•Requirements in the Permit to Operate will
be based on operating conditions at the
time of test. For example, if the facility
passes the stack sampling test at 50%
operating capacity, then the Permit to
Operate will require the facility to operate
at or below 50% operating capacity.

Permitting PolicyPermitting Policy
•Large, medium-sized or environmentally
significant new/modified sources require
emission testing to demonstrate
compliance before a regular permit is
issued.

•“ All owners
/operators of
existing stationary
sources are
required to submit
regular SO
2
ambient monitoring
data and during
the renewal of
Permit to Operate”
Permitting PolicyPermitting Policy

Compliance TestingCompliance Testing
•A large or
environmentally
significant existing
source should be tested
twice per year for each
year of its operation by
the permittee/facility
operator to verify its
compliance. Each test
shall consist of three
sampling runs.

Compliance TestingCompliance Testing
•A medium-sized
source should be
tested annually by
the permittee/facility
operator to verify its
compliance. Each
test shall consist of
three sampling
runs.

•A small source should be tested
by the permittee/facility operator
once during the first year if its
operation to verify its compliance.
Thereafter, it should be tested once
every second year. Each test shall
consist three sampling runs.

•All sources using
Bunker Fuel Oil,
