Burnham SEV, Pasco

Air quality notice of construction application

Aug. 15, 2024, 12 a.m. - Sept. 17, 2024, 11:59 p.m.

We propose to approve Burnham SEV's air quality notice of construction (NOC) application.

Burnham SEV (also known as Pasco Resource Recovery Center) submitted a notice of construction application to increase their biogas flare emergency usage. A biogas flare system is used to dispose of gases that come from decomposing organic matter or biomass. The proposed increase is only if their system is down so it would not be able to process the gas. The facility is located at 981 East Foster Wells Road, Pasco, in Franklin County. The facility receives and treats wastewater from local industrial food processors to produce renewable gas from the biogas produced.

Documents for review

We determined this proposal satisfies the requirements of Chapter 173-400 WAC. We plan to approve the application.

Background

A notice of construction permit is required before installing a new source of air pollution or modifying an existing source of air pollution. This permit is sometimes called a "pre-construction permit" because a business must have one before starting construction or operating their business.

A notice of construction air permit limits the amount of air pollutants a business can emit.
