Chapter 1 - General
Section I-119 - Plans and Permits

A. [formerly paragraph 1:009-1] Certain activities require submission of plans to the state health officer, who must approve the plans and issue a permit prior to the initiation of the activity. This includes but is not limited to the operation, construction or renovation of facilities. For details, see the appropriate Parts of this Code.

B. [formerly paragraph 1:009-2] In those instances in which such activities, for which submission of plans prior to initiation of the activity is required, are found to exist, and no such submittal of plans has been made, the state health officer shall, upon submittal of the required plans and determination of compliance of such activity with this code, offer no objection to the existence of such activity. This shall not be construed to limit in any way the state health officer's authority to suspend, rescind, revoke, or reissue such position of no objection, just as with any other approval or permit, as per §119. C of this Part. The burden of proof of compliance shall be on the applicant.

C. [formerly paragraph 1:010] The state health officer can suspend, rescind, revoke, and reissue permits or approvals, or issue new permits or approvals as provided in this code. The addresses to which requests shall be submitted are set forth in the appropriate Parts of this code.
