Steps

  1. Confirm the material to be burned is limited to wood waste, yard waste, and/or clean lumber (no painted/treated/pressure-treated wood, tires, or general trash), the qualifying material set for air-curtain-incinerator treatment under 40 CFR 60
  2. Check current EPA rulemaking status on Title V permitting for air curtain incinerators, since a 2026 rule addressed removing Title V permitting for units burning only qualifying wood waste below a 35-ton-per-day threshold at non-major sources
  3. Obtain the applicable state/local air permit for the air curtain burner, since state programs still generally require a permit or permit-by-rule registration regardless of the federal Title V change
  4. Operate within opacity limits and other operating conditions specified in the permit
  5. For disaster-debris situations, check whether a declared state of emergency unlocks any temporary-use exemptions before assuming standard permitting timelines apply
