What is a Pre-Approved Emission Limit (PAEL)?
A PAEL is and Enforceable Limit request an owner/operator can make to limit the amount of fuel oil consumed in diesel generators to regulate NOx emissions below 100 tons or gallons of gasoline throughput at bulk plant loading racks to regulate VOC emissions. These limits for certain stationary sources become effective the day after the department receives a complete request.
