Emergency permits will be issued subject to approval and require immediate payment (no escrow accounts) for the following reasons only:
- Unexpected equipment failure that will shut down a manufacturing process;
- Train derailment;
- Breakdown or threatened breakdown of electric, gas, water, or telephone public utility facilities; or
