New Source Review (NSR) is one of the most contentious Clean Air Act program and has been subject of several recent developments. These developments include administration changes that affected or will affect program elements and court challenges. In addition, there are efforts at State level to address program implementation. NSR permitting (which includes nonattainment major NSR permitting, Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) permitting, and minor NSR permitting) continues to be affected by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) policy and court decisions regarding implementation of the programs, and other issues. With the new administration, several major NSR policy shifts are likely to come into the picture. A panel of experts spanning federal permitting authorities, and industry experts will discuss major developments in NSR, point out ways that facility operations could be affected by these developments, indicate what lay ahead, and identify issues that remain unsettled.
