Section 306.405  Notification of Restricted Status or Critical Review

The Agency must notify the sanitary district or other wastewater treatment or transportation authority of its determination of restricted status or critical review, or refusal to terminate the same, and must give a specific, detailed written statement as to the reasons for the determination.

a)         When the Agency determines that conditions warrant placing a facility on Restricted Status or Critical Review, the Agency must send a letter stating the action proposed, the reasons for the action, and a summary of supporting documentation to the sanitary district or other wastewater treatment or transportation authority responsible for the facility.

b)         The sanitary district or other wastewater treatment or transportation authority must be allowed to submit additional relevant information and to meet with the responsible permit engineers or to respond in writing.

c)         If, after review of information or response offered by the sanitary district or other wastewater treatment or transportation authority, the Agency's determination does not change, the Agency must send a final notification of Restricted Status or Critical Review, stating the meaning and reasons for the action, to the sanitary district or other wastewater treatment or transportation authority.

d)         The facility thus classified will remain under that status until the Agency receives information of a change in condition sufficient to warrant a revision of the status, or until a revision in status is ordered by the Pollution Control Board.  The Agency must send notice of any revised status to the sanitary district or other wastewater treatment or transportation authority.
