14. a. Within 18 months of adoption of the rules and regulations required pursuant to section 6 of this act, the department shall designate no fewer than 10 but not more than 15 individual priority industrial facilities to each receive a facility-wide permit on the basis of criteria adopted by the department. These criteria shall include, but need not be limited to:

At the time of the designation of priority industrial facilities pursuant to this subsection, the department shall prepare and submit to the Legislature a report summarizing the designation process and progress made to date in establishing a facility-wide permitting program.
b. Within 30 months of the adoption of the rules and regulations required pursuant to section 6 of this act, the department shall issue facility-wide permits to the priority industrial facilities designated pursuant to subsection a. of this section.
