Sec. 22a-186. Permit for the construction and operation of an air contaminant
source. No person required by the provisions of section 22a-174 to obtain a permit for
the construction and operation of an air contaminant source, including, but not limited
to, a fume incinerator, shall construct and operate such source, except as authorized by
the Commissioner of Environmental Protection. Any use or operation of such source
not authorized by the commissioner shall be cause for the commissioner to revoke the
subject permit. The commissioner, as he deems necessary, may require an emission test
of the source as a condition of such permit. The results of any such test shall be sent to
the legislative body of the municipality in which the source is located upon request
of such legislative body. The commissioner may require, by regulations adopted in
accordance with the provisions of chapter 54, payment of a fee by the owner or operator
of an air contaminant source sufficient to cover the reasonable cost to the Department
of Environmental Protection of conducting or monitoring an emission test required
pursuant to this section or section 22a-174. The commissioner may revoke the permit
of any person who violates any regulation adopted by the commissioner pursuant to
section 22a-174.
