§ 92a.24. New or increased discharges, or change of waste streams.
(a) Sewage discharges and industrial waste discharges. Facility expansions, production increases, process modifications, or any change of wastestream, that may result in an increase of pollutants that have the potential to exceed ELGs or violate effluent limitations specified in the permit, or that may result in a new discharge, or a discharge of new or increased pollutants for which no effluent limitation has been issued, must be approved in writing by the Department before the permittee may commence the new or increased discharge, or change of wastestream. The Department will determine if a permittee will be required to submit a new permit application and obtain a new or amended permit before commencing the new or increased discharge, or change of wastestream.
(b) Stormwater discharges associated with construction activity. The permittee shall notify the Department before initiating any new or expanded disturbed area not identified in the permit application. The Department will determine if a permittee will be required to submit a new permit application and obtain a new or amended permit before the permittee may initiate construction activity in the new or expanded disturbed area.
