Title: ●General Permits for the Tribal Minor New Source Review Program 
Abstract: The Tribal Minor New Source Review (NSR) program applies to new and modified minor sources and minor modifications at major sources in Indian Country. The program is implemented through issuance of pre-construction permits that can include, among other requirements, pollutant emission limits for minor sources and voluntary emission limitations on the potential-to-emit of sources that would otherwise be considered major sources. It uses general permits, which may be applied to a number of similar emission units or stationary sources, to simplify permit application and issuance so that a reviewing authority's limited resource needs not be expended for the review of site-specific permits. A general permit may be written to address a single emissions unit, a group of the same type of emissions units, or an entire category of minor sources. General permits offer a cost-effective means of issuing permits and provide a quicker and simpler alternative mechanism for permitting minor sources than the site-specific permitting process. This action proposes general permits for the following five source categories: gas stations, dry cleaners, autobody shops, hot mix asphalt plants, and rock crushing facilities.
