Form OP-UA14 Instructions
TCEQ-10038 (v6, Revised 01/21) OP-UA14
This form is for use by facilities subject to air quality permit
requirements and may be revised periodically. (Title V Release 01/21) Page 2 of 42
The application area name from Form OP-1 (Site Information Summary)” must appear in the header of each page for the
purpose of identification for the initial submittal. The date of the initial form submittal must also be included and should
be consistent throughout the application (MM/DD/YYYY). Leave the permit number blank for the initial form
submittal. If this form is included as part of the permit revision process, enter the permit number assigned by the TCEQ,
the area name (from Form OP-1), and the date of the revision submittal.
Unit attribute questions that do not require a response from all applicants are preceded by qualification criteria in the
instructions. If the unit does not meet the qualification criteria, a response to the question is not required. Anytime a
response is not required based on the qualification criteria, leave the space on the form blank.
Notwithstanding any qualification criteria in the form instructions or information provided in other TCEQ
guidance, the applicant may leave an attribute question blank (or indicate “N/A” for “Not Applicable”) if the
attribute is not needed for the applicable requirement determinations of a regulation for a unit.
In some situations, the applicant has the option of selecting alternate requirements, limitations, and/or practices for a unit.
Note that these alternate requirements, limitations, and/or practices must have the required approval from the TCEQ
Executive Director and/or the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator before the federal operating
permit application is submitted.
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) requires that a Core Data Form be submitted on all incoming
registrations unless all of the following are met: the Regulated Entity (RN) and Customer Reference (CN) Numbers have
been issued by the TCEQ and no core data information has changed. The Central Registry, a common record area of the
TCEQ, maintains information about TCEQ customers and regulated activities, such as company names, addresses, and
telephone numbers. This information is commonly referred as “core data.” The Central Registry provides the regulated
community with a central access point within the agency to check core data and make changes when necessary. When
core data about a facility is moved to the Central Registry, two new identification numbers are assigned: the CN number
and the RN) number. The Core Data Form is required if facility records are not yet part of the Central Registry or if core
data for a facility has changed. If this is the initial registration, permit, or license for a facility site, then the Core Data
Form must be completed and submitted with application or registration forms. If amending, modifying, or otherwise
updating an existing record for a facility site, the Core Data Form is not required, unless any core data information has
changed. To review additional information regarding the Central Registry, go to the TCEQ website at
