Section 173-175-260 - Exceptions to construction permit process

If the department determines that emergency or exigency conditions exist at a dam and that it is in the best interests of public safety to expedite the construction or modification of a dam, the department may elect to temporarily suspend the normal construction permit process. To allow this exception, the department will issue a written conditional construction permit, which:

(1) May initially be oral;

(2) Will specify the construction activities to be allowed;

(3) May be terminated at a time deemed appropriate by the department;

(4) Shall incorporate, to the extent possible, and not inconsistent with the situation, all applicable requirements of this chapter.
