Form APCD-205
Air Pollutant Emission Notice (APEN) an
Application for Construction Permit
All sections of this APEN and application must be completed for both new and existing facilities, including P,EN
updates. An application with missing information may be determined incomplete and may be returned or r ult in
longer application processing times. You maybe charged an additional APEN fee if the APEN is filled•out/
incorrectly or is missing information and requires re -submittal.
This APEN is to be used for tanks that store condensate associated with oil and gas industry operations. If your emission
source does not fall into this category, there may be a more specific APEN available for your source (e.g. crude oil
storage tanks, produced water storage tanks, hydrocarbon liquid loadings, etc.). In addition, the General APEN (Form
APCD-200) is available if the specialty APEN options will not satisfy your reporting needs. A list of all available APEN
forms and associated addendum forms can be found on the Air Pollution Control Division (APCD) website at:
www.colorado.gov/pacific/cdphe/air-permits.
This emission notice is valid for five (5) years. Submission of a revised APEN is required 30 days prior to expiration
of the five-year term, or when a reportable change is made (significant emissions increase, increase production,
new equipment, change in fuel type, etc). See Regulation No. 3, Part A, II.C. for revised APEN requirements.
