Rule 567-30.1 - Purpose

This chapter sets forth requirements to pay fees for specified activities. The department shall not initiate review and processing of an application submittal from a minor source until all required fees have been paid to the department. Fees are nonrefundable, except as provided in 30.1(4).

(1)Definition. For purposes of this chapter, the following definition shall apply:

"Application submittal" means one or more applications required under 567-22.1 (455B) and submitted at the same time or required to be submitted under 567-22.4 (455B), 567-22.5 (455B), 567-Chapter 31 or 567-Chapter 33.

(2)Duty to correct errors. If an owner, an operator, or the department finds an error in a fee assessed or collected under this chapter, the owner or operator shall submit to the department revised forms making the necessary corrections to the fee and shall submit the correct fee. Corrected forms shall be submitted as soon as possible after the error is discovered or upon notification by the department. If the error correction results in a determination by the department that a fee was overpaid or that a duplicate fee was submitted, the department will return the overpaid balance of the fee to the applicant.

(3)Exemption to fee requirements for administrative amendments. A fee shall not be required for any of the following:

a. Corrections of typographical errors;

b. Corrections of word processing errors;

c. Changes in the name, address, or telephone number of any person identified in a permit, or similar minor administrative changes at the source; and

d. Changes in ownership or operational control of a source where the department determines that no other change in the permit is necessary, provided that a written agreement that contains a specific date for transfer of permit responsibility and coverage, and liability between the current permittee and the new permittee has been submitted to the department.

(4)Refund of application fee minus administrative cost for permit applications at minor sources. The department may refund the application fee minus administrative costs if the owner or operator requests to withdraw the application prior to commencement of the technical review of the application.
