Portable permits are designated by an Account Identification
Number which begins with a 9 (ex:94-1234-X) instead of the
alphabetic nomenclature (XY-1234-Z) used to designate permanent
facilities. These portable permits also contain "relocation
conditions" which typically contain control requirements and future
site authorization instructions for seeking approval from the
appropriate regional office and distance limitations. If these
conditions cannot be met for a particular site, facility owners are
required to submit a "change of location" permit application to the
Air Permits Division (APD) in Austin for review of Best Available
Control Technology (BACT), site impacts, and compliance history.
The relocation conditions and review process has been revised to
resolve many of the outstanding issues and concerns regarding
relocations and change of locations of permitted facilities. These
policies and practices apply to concrete batch plants, asphalt
concrete plants, and crushing/material handling operations.
