SB 6466: Air pollution/minor sources

Allowing construction that has a minor impact on air quality to proceed without a notice of construction or review approval from the department of ecology.

Summary

A new exemption from the notice of construction and review requirements is created for "de minimis" new sources. "De minimis" is defined as a trivial level of emission that does not affect human health or the environment. Ecology must define by rule what new sources are considered de minimis, but has discretion to define them either by category, size or emission threshold.
