The Air Quality Permitting Program is responsible for permitting and testing stationary sources of air pollution (e.g., factories, power plants, etc.) - both old sources (those already constructed) and newer facilities - to ensure they do not adversely affect air quality in your neighborhood or anywhere in the state.

To accomplish this, the staff of the AQPP reviews air pollution control permit applications, evaluates air quality impact and health risks; and ensures stack emissions are measured properly.
