The majority of permits issued in Virginia are minor new source review (NSR) permits. The minor NSR permit program applies to the construction of any new stationary source or any project that will emit regulated air pollutants above the exemption thresholds (listed in 9VAC5-80-1105 C or D) of state regulations or that will require a permit via 9VAC5-80-1105 E or F. If a permit is required, it must be obtained before any activity on the project can begin.[1]


Minor NSR permits can also be used to limit the emissions of a facility below major stationary source thresholds by limiting the uncontrolled emission rate of regulated air pollutants with practically and federally enforceable permit conditions.

Minor NSR permits do not have to go through public participation (i.e. 30 day public comment period and a public hearing) unless the facility has the potential for public interest concerning air quality issues, as determined by the board in its discretion. Additionally, minor NSR permits do not expire.
