Subpart 1.

Form.

The application for a hazardous waste facility permit consists of Part A and Part B. The information requirements of Part A are set forth in part 7001.0550. The information requirements of Part B are set forth in parts 7001.0560 to 7001.0640. A person who submits Part B of the application shall submit the information required by part 7001.0560 and shall also submit any information required by parts 7001.0570 to 7001.0640 that is applicable to the facility which is the subject of the application.

Subp. 2.

Timing of application.

Deadlines for the submission of a permit application for existing and new hazardous waste facilities and for reissuance of existing permits are as follows:

A.

The owner or operator of an existing hazardous waste facility shall submit Part A of the application to the commissioner on or before the 90th day after April 23, 1984. An owner or operator who has already submitted Part A of the application to the Environmental Protection Agency need not submit Part A of the application to the commissioner if the information submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency is complete with respect to all portions of the facility and all wastes stored, treated, or disposed of at the facility that are subject to regulation under chapter 7045. If the information submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency is not complete, the owner or operator shall submit an amended Part A of the application to the commissioner on or before the 90th day after April 23, 1984. The owner or operator may submit Part B of the application at any time except that upon the request of the commissioner the owner or operator shall submit Part B of the application not later than six months after the date of receipt of the commissioner's request. A later date for submission of Part B for a thermal treatment facility may be made under part 7001.0700, subpart 11.

B.

If a person proposes to construct a new hazardous waste facility, the person shall submit Part A and Part B of the application at least 180 days before the planned date of the commencement of facility construction.

C.

Part 7001.0040, subpart 3, governs the application for the reissuance of existing permits except as provided in this part. When the commissioner receives a written request that shows good cause for an extension of time to file the application for permit reissuance, the commissioner shall grant the extension if the final date for filing the application does not extend beyond the expiration date of the permit. The application must contain Part B of the application, completed to show all information that is new or different from that contained in previously submitted applications.

Subp. 3.

Updating permit applications.

An owner or operator of an existing hazardous waste facility who has submitted Part A of the application but has not yet submitted Part B of the application shall submit to the commissioner an amended Part A of the application under the following circumstances:

A.

if the submission of an amended application is necessary to comply with part 7001.0650, subpart 5; or

B.

if parts 7045.0102 to 7045.0141 are amended to list or designate as hazardous a waste being treated, disposed of, or stored by the owner or operator which was not listed or designated as hazardous at the time the original Part A was submitted.

The owner or operator shall file the amended Part A not later than July 23, 1984. An owner or operator who fails to submit an amended Part A when required to do so shall not receive interim status for any wastes not covered by a submitted Part A application.
