Air Permits for Colorado Business and Industry
Any business in Colorado that emits air pollution may be
required to report its emissions and apply for a permit to emit.
The type of permit they apply for is determined by the volume and type
of emissions.

(Emission)
Permits

New and existing businesses in Colorado that emit air
pollutants above certain threshold levels may trigger the need for
an air permit called a "Construction Permit". |
| Construction Permits for
Oil and Gas Facilities |
The Oil and Gas industry construction permitting process
has been developed specifically for that industry. |

Operating
Permits
|
All major sources of air emissions in Colorado are required
to obtain an Operating Permit. These sources emits pollutants
beyond the level required for a construction permit only. New major sources must first
obtain a construction permit, and must apply for an operating permit
within 12 months of commencing operation. |
