Section 463-78-010. Purpose.

The energy facility site evaluation council, under the authority vested in it by chapters 80.50 and 70.94 RCW, is charged with responsibilities for the conduct of a statewide program of air pollution prevention and control for energy facilities. This regulation provides the basic framework for carrying out the council's responsibilities for such a program through the establishment of standards for maximum permissible emissions, the implementation of registration and notice requirements, provision for monitoring and reporting, and the identification of regulatory actions which may be taken to enforce standards. This chapter is designed to operate within the statutory framework for the distribution of responsibilities between state, regional and local units of government in dealing with problems of air pollution.
