Case-by-case insignificant activity notification procedures may be used to exempt a source or activity that meets the criteria outlined in LAC 33:III.501.B.5, Table D from permitting requirements. The Notification of Case-By-Case Insignificant Activity form should be used to claim the exemption and must be submitted to and approved by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (LDEQ) before operations commence.
Per LAC 33:III.501.B.5, any source or activity subject to a federal requirement is not insignificant. Therefore, case-by-case insignificant activity notification procedures cannot be used if the source or activity is subject to a federal requirement, including recordkeeping provisions.
If the source or activity does not exceed an MER, but causes facility-wide emissions of one or more TAPs to exceed an MER, case-by-case insignificant activity notification procedures cannot be used. If facility-wide emissions of one or more TAPs already exceed an MER, case-by-case insignificant activity notification procedures can still be used as long TAP emissions from the source or activity do not exceed an MER.
Similar activities must qualify on an aggregate basis (i.e., aggregate emissions from similar activities represented as insignificant cannot exceed five tons or an MER on an annual basis). For example, a facility may intend to degas six benzene tanks in a calendar year, and each degassing event will result in 50 pounds of benzene emissions. These emissions, if not permitted, cannot be covered under LAC 33:III.501.B.5, Table D because the MER for benzene (260 lb/yr) would be exceeded. In this example, the form could be used to degas five benzene tanks in a calendar year, assuming the other criteria are satisfied.
All facilities in Minnesota are required to determine if they need an air permit. Small facilities should start by determining whether they qualify as an "insignificant facility," which has potential air emissions that are low enough that the MPCA does not require an air permit.
Do I have to use the calculator? No. You can calculate the potential emissions (PTE) of each air emission source at your facility to confirm that the facility is under air permit thresholds:
The actions listed in this part, and operation of the emissions units listed in this part, are insignificant activities for purposes of parts 7007.0100 to 7007.1850. Listing in this part has no effect on any other law, including laws enforced by the agency other than parts 7007.0100 to 7007.1850, to which the activity may be subject.
The emissions units listed in this part must be listed in a permit application, and calculation of emissions from these emissions units must be provided in the permit application if the emissions units:
Health care activities: activities and equipment directly associated with the diagnosis, care, and treatment of patients in medical or veterinary facilities or offices, not including support activities such as power plants, heating plants, emergency generators, incinerators, or other units affected by applicable requirements as defined in part 7007.0100, subpart 7.
natural draft hoods, natural draft ventilation, comfort air conditioning, or comfort ventilating systems not designed or used to remove air contaminants generated by, or released from specific units of equipment;
use of consumer products, including hazardous substances as that term is defined in the Federal Hazardous Substances Act, where the product is used at academic and health care institutions in the same manner as normal consumer use;
Demonstration projects conducted by a teaching institution, where the sole purpose of a demonstration project is to provide an actual functional example of a process unit operation to the students or other interested parties, where actual operating hours of each emission unit shall not exceed a total of 350 hours in a calendar year and where the emissions unit is not used to dispose of waste materials.
Fuel use: space heaters fueled by kerosene, natural gas, or propane, but only if the combined total heat input capacity of all space heaters at the stationary source is less than or equal to 420,000 Btu per hour. A space heater is a heating unit that is not connected to piping or ducting to distribute the heat.
indirect heating equipment as defined in part 7011.0500, subpart 9, with a heat input capacity less than 420,000 Btu per hour, but only if the total combined heat input capacity of all indirect heating equipment at the stationary source with a heat input capacity less than 420,000 Btu per hour is less than or equal to a total heat input capacity of 1,400,000 Btu per hour. For example: Facility A has three furnaces, each with a heat input capacity of 400,000 Btu per hour. The three units are all an insignificant activity to be listed under this subitem because their combined heat input capacity is less than 1,400,000 Btu per hour. Facility B has six furnaces, each with a total heat input capacity of 400,000 Btu per hour. None of the six units is an insignificant activity under this subitem, because their total combined heat input capacity is greater than 1,400,000 Btu per hour.
nonhazardous air pollutant VOC storage tanks with a combined total tankage capacity of not more than 10,000 gallons of nonhazardous air pollutant VOCs and with a vapor pressure of not more than 1.0 psia at 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
Emissions from a laboratory. For this item, "laboratory" means a place or activity devoted to experimental study or teaching in any science, or to the testing and analysis of drugs, chemicals, chemical compounds or other substances, or similar activities, provided that the activities described in this sentence are conducted on a laboratory scale. Activities are conducted on a laboratory scale if the containers used for reactions, transfers, and other handling of substances are designed to be easily and safely manipulated by one person. If an emission facility manufactures or produces products for profit in any quantity, it may not be considered to be a laboratory under this item. Support activities necessary to the operation of the laboratory are considered to be part of the laboratory. Support activities do not include the provision of power to the laboratory from sources that provide power to multiple projects or from sources that would otherwise require permitting, such as boilers that provide power to an entire facility.
Fugitive dust emissions from unpaved entrance roads and parking lots, except that a stationary source applying for an Option D registration permit under part 7007.1130 must include fugitive dust emissions in calculations when required under part 7007.1130, subpart 4.
If the owners and operators are applying for the initial part 70 permit for a stationary source, emissions units with emissions less than all the following limits but not included in subpart 2 must be listed in the part 70 permit application:
combined HAP actual emissions of one ton per year unless the emissions unit emits one or more of the following HAPs: carbon tetrachloride; 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane; ethylene dibromide; hexachlorobenzene; polycyclic organic matter; antimony compounds; arsenic compounds, including inorganic arsine; cadmium compounds; chromium compounds; lead compounds; manganese compounds; mercury compounds; nickel compounds; selenium compounds; 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin; or dibenzofuran. If the emissions unit emits one or more of the HAPs listed in this subitem, the emissions unit is not an insignificant activity under this subitem; and
Unless otherwise required by the Director, the following air pollutant sources/activities must be listed, but need not be described in detail, in the Part 70 permit application. Exclusion of these emissions from detailed reporting does not exclude them from inclusion in any applicability determination. Additionally, this insignificant listing may not be used to avoid any applicable requirement (i.e. NESHAP, NSPS, etc.) as defined in 40 CFR Part 70.2.
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires employers to keep records on wages, hours and other items, as specified in U.S. Department of Labor regulations. Most of the information is of the kind generally maintained by employers in ordinary business practice and in compliance with other laws and regulations.
In recording working time under the FLSA, infrequent and insignificantperiods of time beyond the scheduled working hours, which cannot as a practicalmatter be precisely recorded for payroll purposes, may be disregarded. Thecourts have held that such periods of time are de minimis (insignificant). Thisrule applies only where there are uncertain and indefinite periods of timeinvolved, a few seconds or minutes in duration, and where the failure to countsuch time is justified by industrial realities. As noted below, an employer maynot arbitrarily fail to count any part, however small, of working time that canbe practically ascertained.
For example, after clocking in you were assigned to another job. Youtransported your tools to the new job area and then informed the foreman thatyou were ill and went home without doing any additional work or clocking out.The time spent transporting the tools would be considered de minimis orinsignificant because it was limited to this one time only.
This policy is one that must be applied with common sense recognizing thepractical realities of recording identifiable work time. Setting an artificialtime limit is not sufficient. One must consider how frequently the activity isperformed and whether the activity is actually part of the work the employeewas hired to do.
Time clocks are not required under the FLSA. In those cases where timeclocks are used, if you voluntarily come in before your regular starting timeor remain after quitting time, you do not have to be paid for such periodsprovided, of course, that you do not do any work during this time. Early orlate punching of the clock is not hours worked when no work is done.
