Internal combustion engines are used to power a variety of portable
equipment categories, including, but not limited to:
Generally, portable engines with a brake
horsepower rating of 50 HP or more can be operated within the jurisdiction
of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) provided an AQMD
Permit to Operate or PERP Registration has been issued for the equipment.
The exceptions to this rule include:
-
a limited number of
portable engine
categories that are ineligible for PERP
Registration; and
-
an even smaller
category (Tier 0 engines) that cannot participate in
either PERP or AQMD's permitting program.
Arranged Inspections
What's New!
Recently, there were revisions made to the PERP
Regulation and Portable Engine ATCM. These revisions became effective
on February 19, 2011, and all holders of PERP Registrations are now subject
to the new requirements. Updated operating conditions reflecting the
new requirements will be issued upon renewal for all existing registrations.
A
flyer containing a summary of the changes was mailed to all holders
of PERP registration. En Espanol
Aqui.
