OPINION

HARTEN, Judge.

The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (the MPCA) issued an air emissions permit to respondents University of Minnesota and Foster Wheeler Twin Cities, Inc. authorizing renovation of the University's steam generation system. Relators contend that the MPCA decision to issue the permit is unsupported by substantial evidence, arbitrary and capricious, and based on an erroneous interpretation of the law. We affirm.
