Mo. Code Regs. tit. 10 § 22-2.020
Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 23, December 2, 2024
Section 10 CSR 22-2.020 - Types of PermitsPURPOSE: The changes eliminate language originally used for compliance of dams after the inception of the rules in 1981. The rules are no longer valid.
(1) There are three (3) types of permits-registration permits, construction permits and safety permits and each one is intended to regulate a separate and distinct type of activity. A dam and reservoir will have only one (1) type of permit in effect at any given time although they may have more than one (1) type of permit during their existence.(2) Registration permits (see 10 CSR 22-1.020(44)) apply to and are required for the continued operation of a dam and reservoir that was in existence or in the process of being constructed on the effective date of this section, August 13, 1981. A registration permit also applies to and is required for structures which become subject to the provisions of the dam and reservoir safety law that were in existence prior to the date that they became subject to the law. Registration permits may be issued for a time period up to five (5) years.(3) Construction permits (see 10 CSR 22-1.020(8)) apply to the construction of a new dam and reservoir, the alteration, enlargement, reduction, repair, or removal of a new or existing dam, reservoir, or appurtenances. New dams are dams for which construction commences after the effective date of this section, August 13, 1981. A construction permit may be issued for any reasonable length time period in order to complete construction and it may contain appropriate restrictions placed on the owner for construction and operation of the dam and reservoir during that period. At the conclusion of construction, a safety or registration permit shall be obtained by the owner.(4) Safety permits (see 10 CSR 22-1.020(48)) apply to the operation of a dam and reservoir constructed pursuant to a construction permit. The safety permit is not a guarantee of the dam and reservoir's safety and does not alter the owner's liability; it is simply an operating permit. If a dam and reservoir were not subject to the provisions of the law when they were constructed but subsequently become subject to the provisions of the law, the owner shall obtain a registration permit, not a safety permit. Safety permits may be issued for a time period up to five (5) years, and they may contain appropriate conditions for the operation and safety of the dam and reservoir.
