Permit Renewal Process Data & Communication Needs

This workgroup is a collaborative and focused effort on the renewal application materials and process to ensure dischargers have adequate information and time to plan for permit renewals. This workgroup will benefit both permittees and Division staff to have a transparent process and well-communicated data requirements.

  • By formalizing this work through a forum workgroup, the process will likely be more efficient;
  • A thoughtful evaluation of data needs and communication plan to the regulated community about the permit renewal process will limit delays in permit processing, and ensure that limits are calculated appropriately;
  • Inclusion of stakeholders within a WQF workgroup will help to broaden the reach of communication of data needs, and increase the buy-in of permittees to process changes.
