(A) Permit application. Any person who is
required to have a permit (including new applicants and permittees with
expiring permits) shall complete, sign, and submit an application to the
director as described in Chapter 3745-50 of the Administrative Code. Persons
currently authorized with a permit by rule under paragraph (C) of rule
3745-50-40 of the Administrative
Code shall submit to the director a "Part B" application for a hazardous waste
facility installation and operation permit for the facility within one hundred
eighty days after the director requests the application or upon a later date if
the owner or operator of the facility demonstrates to the director good cause
for the late submittal. Persons covered by paragraph (A) of rule
3745-50-46 of the Administrative
Code need not apply. Procedures for applications, issuance, and administration
of emergency permits are in rule

form 9029, and any other forms required by the director, the "Part A"
