All persons, including the applicants, who believe any condition of a draft permit is inappropriate or that the director's tentative decision to deny an application, terminate a permit, or prepare a draft permit is inappropriate, must raise all reasonably ascertainable issues and submit all reasonably available arguments supporting their position by the close of the public comment period (including any public hearing) under section 11-271-10. Any supporting materials which are submitted shall be included in full and may not be incorporated by reference, unless they are already part of the administrative record in the same proceeding, or consist of State or federal statutes, regulations, or rules, EPA or State documents of general applicability, or other generally available reference materials. Commenters shall make supporting materials not already included in the administrative record available to the department as directed by the director. (A comment period longer than forty-five days may be necessary to give commenters a reasonable opportunity to comply with the requirements of this section. Additional time shall be granted under section 11-271-10 to the extent that a commenter who requests additional time demonstrates the need for such time.)
