Section 61-79.124.A.3 - Application for a permit

(a)

(1) Any person who requires a permit under these regulations shall complete, sign, and submit to the Department an application for each permit required under R.61-79.270.1 and meet the public notice requirements under 124.10. Applications are not required for permits by rule R.61-79.270.60. (amended 6/89; edited 12/92)

(2) The Department shall not begin the processing of a permit under these regulations until the applicant has fully complied with the application requirements for that permit. See R.61-79.270.10, .11, and .13, Subpart B and applicable sections of R-61-79.264 which describe the information required in permit applications. (amended 11/90)

(b) [Reserved]

(c) The Department shall review for completeness every application for a permit under these regulations. Each application for a permit submitted by a new HWM facility should be reviewed for completeness by the Department within 30 days of its receipt. Each application for a permit submitted by an existing HWM facility (both Parts A and B of the application), should be reviewed for completeness within 60 days of receipt. Upon completing the review, the Department shall notify the applicant in writing whether the application is complete. If the application is incomplete, the Department shall list the information necessary to make the application complete. When the application is for an existing HWM facility, the Department shall specify in the notice of deficiency a date for submitting the necessary information. After the application is completed, the Department may request additional information from an applicant but only where necessary to clarify, modify, or supplement previously submitted material. Requests for such additional information will not render an application incomplete. (amended 11/90)

(d) If an applicant fails or refuses to correct deficiencies in the application, the permit may be denied and appropriate enforcement actions may be taken under the applicable statutory provisions of SC 44-56-140 and RCRA section3008.

(e) If the Department decides that a site visit is necessary for any reason in conjunction with the processing of an application, it will notify the applicant and a date shall be scheduled.

(f) The effective date of an application is the date on which the Department notifies the applicant that the application is complete as provided in paragraph (c) of this section.
