Public notices are required for Class I and Class II Operating
Permits. The public notice period lasts 30 days. They are also required for some
Class III permits if defined hazardous air pollutants are present at the facility
requesting the permit.
Only the public notice is published here. If you wish to review the proposed
operating permit, we will have a copy in our office for your review. An appointment
is necessary so that the air quality staff may answer basic questions related to
the permit. Should you wish to make official comments for the record, or have more
detailed questions, the public notice will provide the appropriate contact name
at KDHE. To make an appointment, simply call our office at 913-715-6900.
