§ 8.04. Smoke and Particulate Matter.

8.04.01. Industrial Limits: No industrial operation or use shall cause, create, or allow the emission of air contaminants which at the emission point or within the bounds of the property are:

A.

In violation of the standards specified by the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission including but not limited to those in Title 30 of the Texas Administrative Code or the standards specified by the Texas Department of Health including but not limited to those in Title 25 of the Texas Administrative Code; or

B.

Of such capacity as to obscure an observer's view to a degree equal to or greater than does smoke or contaminants in the standard prescribed in (A.) above, except that when the presence of steam is the only reason for failure to comply or when such contaminants are emitted inside a building which prevents their escape into the outside atmosphere, performance shall be considered in compliance with this Section of the Ordinance.

8.04.02. State Regulations Control: The emission of particulate matter from all sources in a district subject to this Article shall not exceed the level specified by the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission regulations including but not limited to those in Title 30 of the Texas Administrative Code or the regulations specified by the Texas Department of Health including but not limited to those in Title 25 of the Texas Administrative Code.
