Current Bill Summary

SB 245 - This act creates an option for an "expedited review" of a permit to construct an air contaminant source. A permit applicant may offer to reimburse the Department of Natural Resources for costs of staff overtime or private consultants needed to review the permit in an expedited manner. The Department may refuse the offer or accept the offer if permit approval priorities will not be disrupted by the expedited review.

Reimbursements shall be placed in an appropriate fund and used only to reimburse extra costs incurred under expedited reviews.

Reimbursement shall not affect the Department's decision on the permit or what conditions are to be included in the permit.
