250 R.I. Code R. 250-RICR-10-00-1.10

Current through November 7, 2024
Section 250-RICR-10-00-1.10 - Permits/License
A. It shall be the applicant's responsibility to notify the AAD and AHO of all permits required for the construction and/or operation of the facility or project, and the status of each required permit.
B. When more than one permit from DEM is required for a particular project/facility to proceed, the AHO, sua sponte or by motion of a party may, in his or her discretion, consolidate the adjudicatory proceedings.
C. After hearings have been consolidated, by motion or order of the AHO, the matter may not be noticed or heard until all applications are deemed complete by the Division(s) responsible for the review.
D. Amendments
1. Amendments initiated by applicant. Once a draft permit or application has gone out to public notice, and the hearing has commenced as provided for in these Rules, if the applicant seeks to amend such draft permit or application, it must make such a motion before the AHO. If such a motion is granted, the AHO in his/her discretion, may suspend the hearings for a period of time sufficient to allow the other parties adequate time to review and prepare their case in response to the amendments.
2. Recommended conditions of approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the amendment is a recommended condition of approval of the permit/license made by the Division and has been clearly set forth in the notice of hearing then the applicant may amend its application to adopt the condition without permission of the AHO and without suspension of the proceedings.
3. If the facts upon which an application or draft permit was approved or denied are materially and substantially modified, after it has gone out to public notice, the AHO in his/her discretion, may elect to treat the modified permit or application as a new application.
