Application #3470-M1, 898th Munitions Squadron

U.S. Air Force – Kirtland Air Force Base (KAFB) requests a modification to their air quality permit in Application #3470-M1

September 11, 2026

The applicant is requesting to consolidate permitted equipment and operational limits under Permit 3470 by incorporating gasoline dispensing operations originally authorized under Permit #3101-2AR. Permit #3101-2AR currently authorizes gasoline dispensing equipment and a boiler that has since been permanently removed from service. The removed boiler has been replaced with two comfort heat boilers that are exempt from permitting requirements and are identified in application forms. The permit modification requests to reduce operating limits for the existing emergency generator authorized under Permit #3470 from 200 hours per year to 100 hours per year. In addition, the modification requests an increase in the annual throughput for gasoline dispensing operations from 20,000 gallons per year to 30,000 gallons per year.
