Order No.: DEQ 9-2012 Filed with Sec. of State: 12-11-2012 Certified to be Effective: 12-11-12 Notice Publication Date: 3-1-12 Rules Amended: 340-220-0030, 340-220-0040, 340-220-0050 Subject: The Oregon Environmental Quality Commission adopted revisions to Oregon’s Title V permitting program. This rulemaking increases the Title V operating permit fees by the change in the Consumer Price Index authorized by federal and state law. The fee increases are necessary to cover the reasonable costs associated with DEQ’s operation of Oregon’s Title V program. The amendments to the Title V operating permits increase base fees under OAR 340-220-0030, emission fees under OAR 340-220- 0040 and specific activity fees under OAR 340-220-0050. These fee increases affect the 2012 and 2013 invoice years for the 2012-13 and 2013-14 operating periods. DEQ calculated the estimated fees for the 2013 invoice year using the 2011 change in the CPI and for the 2014 invoice year using the 2012 change in the CPI.
