law
requires
all
sources
which

required
to
file
Air

to
pay
an
annual
fee.
The

is
based
on

current
Air
Pollutant
Emission
Notice
the
Division
has
on
file.
Invoices

on a
yearly
basis.
Annual

administered
by
the
Inventory

Unit
.
Permit
Processing
Fee:
In
addition
to
the
APEN
filing
fee
and
annual
fee,
the
Division
is
required
by
law
to
recover
the
costs
of
operating
the
permitting
program
by
charging
applicants
a
processing
fee.
This
fee
is
based
on
the
amount
of
time
it
takes
the
Division
to
process
the
application
according
to
an
hourly
rate
and
including
costs
such
as
publication
of
public
notice.
Processing
fees
are $76.45
per
hour.
The
final
approval
fee
includes
the
total
of
all
costs
associated
with
enforcement
of
the
construction
permit,
compliance
testing,
and
other
costs
as
required
for
processing
the
permit.
Processing
fees
are
charged
for
both
initial
and
final
approval
permits,
modifications,
requested
administrative
changes
and
transfer
of
ownership.
State
law
requires
the
Division
to
notify
applicants
in
writing
if
total
processing
time
(initial
plus
final)
is
anticipated
to
exceed
30
hours.
In
such
cases,
the
Division
must
provide
the
applicant
with
an
estimate
of
the
projected
processing
time.
Applicants
may
waive
this
notice
requirement
in
writing
when
an
application
is
submitted,
if
desired.
