Notice of Issuance of Non-Rule Air Quality Standard Permit for Temporary Public Works Projects

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ or commission) issues a new non-rule Air Quality Standard Permit for Temporary Public Works Projects. The Temporary Public Works Standard Permit is effective on June 18, 2025. The issuance of the Temporary Public Works Standard Permit is authorized by the Texas Clean Air Act, Texas Health and Safety Code (THSC), Chapter 382 and is based on a comprehensive evaluation of air emissions and potential impacts.

Copies of the standard permit can be obtained from the commission's website at: https://www.tceq.texas.gov/permitting/air/nav/standard.html. For further information, please contact Michael Wilhoit, Air Permits Division, at (512) 239-1222.

Explanation and Background of Air Quality Standard Permit

The New Source Review (NSR) Program under Chapter 116 requires any person who plans to construct any new facility or to engage in the modifications of any existing facility which may emit air contaminants into the air of the state to obtain a permit pursuant to §116.110, Applicability, or satisfy the conditions of a standard permit, a flexible permit, or a permit by rule, before any actual work is begun on the facility (preconstruction). A standard permit authorizes the construction or modification of new or existing facilities which are similar in terms of operations, processes, and emissions.

Senate Bill 1397, 88th Session, amended Chapter 382 of the THSC to require TCEQ to issue a standard permit for temporary concrete batch plants that perform wet batching, dry batching, or central mixing to support public works projects. This standard permit provides a preconstruction authorization that may be used for any temporary concrete batch plant supporting a public works project that complies with the standard permit requirements. The issuance of this standard permit implements THSC, §382.051985, Standard Permit for Certain Temporary Concrete Plants for Public Works. Prior to the issuance of this standard permit, temporary concrete batch plants supporting public works projects have been authorized under the existing Air Quality Standard Permit for Concrete Batch Plants. The standard permit does not relieve the owner or operator from any other applicable provisions of the THSC, Texas Water Code, rules of the TCEQ, or any additional state or federal regulations.

Overview of Air Quality Standard Permit

The commission issues the Air Quality Standard Permit for Temporary Public Works Projects under the authority of the Texas Water Code (TWC), §5.102, Texas Health & Safety Code (THSC), §§382.011, 382.023, 382.051, 382.0513, 382.05195, and 382.051985 and 30 Texas Administrative Code Chapter 116, Subchapter F, concerning Standard Permits.

THSC, §382.051985 requires that a plant operating under the new standard permit must be located in or contiguous to the right-of-way of the public works project; may occupy a designated site for not more than 180 consecutive days or to supply material for a single project; and may not support a project which is not related to the public works project. The proposed standard permit contains conditions to ensure that facilities authorized by the standard permit meet the criteria of THSC, §382.051985, and includes emission control requirements, best management practices, registration requirements, and recordkeeping requirements to ensure the new standard permit is protective of human health and the environment and is enforceable.

The commission conducted a protectiveness review for the standard permit that demonstrates that the standard permit is protective based on current effects screening level guidelines and current National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The standard permit analysis is required by statute to include Best Available Control Technology (BACT) for each source. BACT is an emission limitation or control technique that results in the maximum degree of pollution reduction while maintaining technical and economic feasibility. The BACT requirements included in the standard permit are based on existing Tier I BACT requirements as well as review of numerous existing facilities found at typical temporary concrete batch plants. The BACT requirements are considered commonly used for these sources and operation types.

While this standard permit authorizes operation of temporary concrete batch plants that support public works projects, it is not intended to authorize all possible unit configurations or operating scenarios. Those facilities that cannot meet the standard permit may apply for a permit under another authorization mechanism.

Public Notice and Comment Period

In accordance with 30 TAC §116.603, Public Participation in Issuance of Standard Permits, TCEQ published notice of the proposed standard permit in the Texas Register and newspapers of the largest general circulation in the following metropolitan areas: Austin, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio. Notices were published in both English and Spanish language newspapers. The notice included instructions on how the public could comment on the proposed standard permit. The date of the English-language publications was November 1, 2024, in the San Antonio Express-News, Austin-American Statesman, Dallas Morning News, Houston Chronicle, and Texas Register . The dates of the Spanish-language newspaper publications were October 30, 2024, in Conexiõn (San Antonio); October 31, 2024, in El Mundo (Austin); November 3, 2024, in La Prensa de Houston; and November 6, 2024, in Al Dia (Dallas).

The public comment period ran from November 1, 2024, until midnight on December 6, 2024. However, TCEQ continued to accept comments from the public that were received shortly after the comment period closed. Written comments were received. No oral comments were received.

Request for Comments on the ERCOT Standard Generation Interconnection Agreement (SGIA)

The Public Utility Commission of Texas (Commission) requests comments on its proposed revisions to the ERCOT Standard Generation Interconnection Agreement (SGIA). The proposed revisions will update the SGIA to comply with revisions to PURA §35.004 made by HB 1500, Section 9. Specifically, HB 1500 required the commission to develop a "reasonable allowance" applicable to generation resources interconnecting directly with the ERCOT transmission system at transmission voltage after December 31, 2025. The changes to PURA §35.004 were subsequently reflected in amendments to 16 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) §25.195, relating to Terms and Conditions for Transmission Service in 2024 under Project 55566.

The SGIA is currently used by all generators interconnecting with the transmission system in the ERCOT power region. Accordingly, the proposed revisions to the SGIA are intended to address the new transmission cost allocation framework introduced by the commission-prescribed allowance and otherwise conform the SGIA to the updated requirements of 16 TAC §25.195 and PURA §35.004. Other changes to the SGIA include revisions to the definitions, performance obligations, assignment, cost allocation provisions to accommodate the recent amendment to 16 TAC §25.195, requirements for interconnecting generators to comply with the Lone Star Infrastructure Protection Act, as well as minor and conforming changes for clarity. Project Number 58211 is assigned to this proceeding.

The commission invites specific comments regarding the effects of the proposed revisions to the SGIA, including the costs associated with, and benefits that will be gained by, implementation of the proposed revisions. Interested persons may file comments electronically through the interchange on the commission's website. Comments must be filed by July 31, 2025. Comments should be organized in a manner consistent with the organization of the proposed SGIA. The commission also requests any data, research, or analysis from any person required to comply with the proposed SGIA or any other interested person. The commission will consider the information submitted by commenters and the costs and benefits of implementation in deciding whether to modify the proposed SGIA on adoption. All comments should refer to Project Number 58211.

Questions concerning the project should be directed to Mackenzie Arthur, Rules and Projects, at mackenzie.arthur@puc.texas.gov. Hearing and speech-impaired individuals with text telephones (TTY) may contact the Commission at (512) 936-7136.
