(a) In accordance with § 382.0541(a)(5), a federal operating permit issued or renewed by the commission is subject to review at least every five years after the date of issuance to determine whether the authority to operate should be renewed.
(b) The commission by rule shall establish:
(1) the procedures for notifying a permit holder that the permit is scheduled for review in accordance with this section;
(2) a deadline by which the holder of a permit must submit an application for renewal of the permit that is between the date six months before expiration of the permit and the date 18 months before expiration of the permit;
(3) the general requirements for an application; and
(4) the procedures for reviewing and acting on a renewal application.

(c) The commission promptly shall provide to the applicant notice of whether the application is complete. Unless the commission requests additional information or otherwise notifies the applicant that the application is incomplete before the 61st day after the commission receives an application, the application shall be deemed complete.
(d) The commission shall take final action on a renewal application for a federal operating permit within 18 months after the date an application is determined to be administratively complete. If the commission does not act on an application for permit renewal within 18 months after the date on which the commission receives an administratively complete application, a person who participated in the public participation process or a person affected by the commission’s failure to act may obtain judicial review under § 382.032 at any time before the commission takes final action.
(e) In determining whether and under which conditions a permit should be renewed, the commission shall consider:
(1) all applicable requirements in § 382.0542(a)(3); and
(2) whether the federal source is in compliance with this chapter and the terms of the existing permit.
(f) The commission shall impose as terms and conditions in a renewed federal operating permit any applicable requirements under Title V of the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. Sections 7661-7661f). The terms or conditions of the renewed permit must provide for compliance with any applicable requirement under Title V of the federal Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. Sections 7661-7661f). The commission may not impose requirements less stringent than those of the existing permit unless the commission determines that a proposed change will meet the requirements of § 382.0541.
(g) If the applicant submits a timely and complete application for federal operating permit renewal, but the commission fails to issue or deny the renewal permit before the end of the term of the previous permit:
(1) all terms and conditions of the permit shall remain in effect until the renewal permit has been issued or denied; and
(2) the applicant may continue to operate until the permit renewal application is issued or denied, if the applicant submits additional information that is requested in writing by the commission that the commission needs to process the application on or before the time specified in writing by the commission.
(h) This section does not affect the commission’s authority to begin an enforcement action under Sections 382.082-382.084.
