Current through Reg. 50, No. 13; March 28, 2025
(a) Any permit renewal application that is declared administratively complete before September 1, 1999 is subject to this section. The permittee or the executive director may file an application for renewal of a permit. The application shall be filed with the executive director before the permit expiration date. Any permittee with an effective permit shall submit a new application at least 180 days before the expiration date of the effective permit, unless permission for a later date has been granted by the executive director. The executive director shall not grant permission for applications to be submitted later than the expiration date of the existing permit.
(1) An application for renewal may be in the same form as that required for the original permit application.
(2) An application for renewal shall request continuation of the same requirements and conditions of the expiring permit.
(3) If an application for renewal in fact requests a modification of requirements and conditions of the existing permit, an application for amendment or modification shall also be filed before further action is taken. For applications filed under the Texas Water Code, Chapter 26, if an application for renewal in fact requests a modification of requirements and conditions of the existing permit, an application for amendment shall be filed in place of an application for renewal.
(4) If renewal procedures have been initiated before the permit expiration date, the existing permit will remain in full force and effect and will not expire until commission action on the application for renewal is final.
(5) The commission may deny an application for renewal for the grounds set forth in §
305.66 of this title (relating to Revocation and Suspension).
(6) During the renewal process, the executive director may make any changes or additions to permits authorized by §
305.65 of this title (relating to Corrections of Permits), or §
305.62(d) of this title (relating to Amendment) provided the requirements of §
305.62(f) of this title (relating to Amendment) and § 305.96 of this title (relating to Action on Application for Amendment) are satisfied.
(7) The executive director may grant permission for permittees of non-publicly owned treatment works to submit the information required by 40 Code of Federal Regulations § 122.21(g)(10) after the permit expiration date.
