A. Permit Requirements

1. Scope. Persons, other than generators and government agencies, operating facilities that collect waste tires and/or process waste tires or waste tire material must secure a permit and are subject to the requirements detailed in these regulations.

2. Types of Permits
a. Temporary Permits. A temporary permit allows continued operation of an existing collection center and/or waste tire processing facility, in accordance with an approved interim operational plan, but does not allow the expansion or modification of the facility without approval of the administrative authority. The administrative authority may issue a temporary permit in the following situations:
i. order to upgrade-to allow operations to continue at an existing facility while a standard permit application is being processed; or

ii. order to close-to allow operations to continue at an existing facility while a closure plan is being processed or while a facility is being closed in accordance with a closure plan.

b. Standard Permit. The permit issued by the administrative authority to applicants that have successfully completed the standard permit application process.

3. Permit Provisions
a. Permit Duration. A standard permit issued to a processing and/or collection facility shall be valid for five years from the date of issuance. Permit renewal applications shall be submitted no less than 365 calendar days before the expiration date of the standard permit, unless written permission for later filing is granted by the administrative authority. If the renewal application is submitted on or before the deadline above, and the administrative authority does not issue a final decision on the renewal application on or before the expiration date of the standard permit, the standard permit shall remain in effect until the administrative authority issues a final decision.

b. Transfer of Permit. Permits issued pursuant to these regulations are assigned only to the permittee and cannot be transferred, sublet, leased, or assigned, without prior written approval of the administrative authority.

B. Modifications. No modifications shall be made to the permit or facility without prior written approval from the administrative authority.

C. Suspension, Modification, or Revocation of Permit. The administrative authority may review a permit at any time. After review of a permit, the administrative authority may, for cause, suspend, modify, or revoke a permit in whole or in part in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act.
