GETTING A RAP APPROVED
Section 61-79.270.H.130 - What is the process for approving or denying my application for a RAP?

(a) If the Department tentatively finds that your RAP application includes all of the information required by 270.110 and that your proposed remediation waste management activities meet the regulatory standards, the Department will make a tentative decision to approve your RAP application. The Department will then prepare a draft RAP and provide an opportunity for public comment before making a final decision on your RAP application, according to this subpart.

(b) If the Department tentatively finds that your RAP application does not include all of the information required by 270.110 or that your proposed remediation waste management activities do not meet the regulatory standards, the Department may request additional information from you or ask you to correct deficiencies in your application. If you fail or refuse to provide any additional information the Department requests, or to correct any deficiencies in your RAP application, the Department may make a tentative decision to deny your RAP application. After making this tentative decision, the Department will prepare a notice of intent to deny your RAP application ("notice of intent to deny") and provide an opportunity for public comment before making a final decision on your RAP application, according to the requirements in this Subpart. The Department may deny the RAP application either in its entirety or in part.
