A bill for an act
relating to environment; providing for sulfate effluent permit compliance.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA:

Section 1. SULFATE EFFLUENT COMPLIANCE.

(a) This section applies to any permit issued after January 1, 2010, and before May
1, 2016, that contains final sulfate effluent limits resulting from implementation of the
wild rice water quality standard in Minnesota Rules, part 7050.0224, subpart 2. If, as of
May 1, 2016, the permittee is in substantial compliance with any compliance schedule
permit conditions related to those final limits or has executed a schedule of compliance to
resolve any noncompliance that existed before May 1, 2016:

(1) the final sulfate limits resulting from implementation of the wild rice water
quality standard in Minnesota Rules, part 7050.0224, subpart 2, are no longer valid; and

(2) any compliance schedule permit conditions related to those final limits are no
longer valid.

(b) Nothing in this section shall relieve the permittee from its obligation to satisfy
requirements contained in any schedule of compliance that is in effect as of May 1, 2016.
