COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, Water Quality Control Division Renewal Permit Rationale - Page 3. Permit No.: COC-850000. • II. Permit Changes (continued) Other than es: The boiler plate language in Part I. Section C., and Part II. is being revised to reflect the more condensed language currently used in individual permits. Where changes were necessary to reflect the differences between general permit requirements and individual permit requirements, such changes have also been made. No other significant changes are being made to this general permit. III. Reporting There have been occasions where specific permittees have not properly followed the Noncompliance Notification Requirements specified in Part II.A.3. of the permit. Where a request for relief from total suspended solids and total iron and/or settleable solids limitations is desired, the permittee must also submit the documentation specified under Part I.B.l.d) - Burden of Proof Requirements. Failure to do so may result in enforcement action and/or revocation of authorization to discharge under the general permit. • IV. Whoie Effluent Toxicity (WET) Testing Section G.9.7(2)(a)(i)(A) of the Regulations For the State Discharge Pormit System 6.1.0 (SCCR 1002-2) exempts facilities certified under this general permit from WET testing requirements.

Jon C. Kubic January 16, 1992 VI. Public Notice Comments Verbal Comments were received by EPA Region VIII. Their primary concern related to the compliance date for construction and/or related , activities. The draft permit stated that this date was three years after the effective date of the permit. It was the Division's intention to state that attainment of operational level would occur as soon as possible, but in no even[ later than three years after the permit becomes effective. The final permit will clarify this to indicate that the Division will permit reasonable timetables for construction with appropriate completion dates; but, the latest date acceptable for completion will be June 30, 1995. A Long construction schedule will be approved only if major construction is required. The Division will ensure that no construction schedule is excessively long.
