Section 126-2-015 - Emergency Permits

In the event the Director finds an imminent and substantial endangerment to human health or the environment, he may issue a temporary emergency permit without notice or hearing for an activity or operation specified in paragraph 001 of this Chapter. This emergency permit may also be issued to a non-permitted activity or operation specified in this Chapter or to one whose existing permit does not cover the authority for which application for the emergency permit is made. This emergency permit:

015.01 May be oral or written

If oral, it shall be followed in five (5) days by a written emergency permit;

015.02 Shall not exceed one-hundred twenty (120) days in duration but may be renewed for an additional sixty (60) days where the permittee can demonstrate that the circumstances justify such extension and that the permittee made good faith efforts to complete the permitted activity or operation within the one-hundred twenty (120) days;

015.03 Shall clearly specify the wastes to be handled and the manner and location of their disposal; and

015.04 May be terminated by the Director at any time without process if he determines that termination is appropriate to protect human health and the environment.
