<br />A. COVERAGE UNDER THIS PERMIT (cont.)
<br />d. General vs. Individual Permit Coverage: Any owner or operator authorized by this permit may request to be excluded
<br />from the coverage of this permit by applying for an individual CDPS permit. The owner or operator shall submit an
<br />individual application, with reasons supporting the request, to the Division at least 180 days prior to any discharge.
<br />4. Permit Expiration Date/Reanplication
<br />Authorization to discharge under this general permit shall expire on June 30, 2011. The Division must evaluate and reissue
<br />this general permit once every five years, and must also recertify the applicant's authority to discharge under the general
<br />pennit at such time. Therefore, a permittee desiring continued coverage under the general permit must reapply by March 31,
<br />2011. The Division will initiate the renewal process; however, it is ultimately the permittee's responsibility to ensure that the
<br />renewal is submitted. The Division will determine if the applicant may continue to operate under the tenns of the general
<br />pennit. Arm individual permit may be required for any facility not reauthorized to discharge under the reissued general permit.
<br />For facilities wishing to terminate authorization under the pennit, provisions of Part iI.B.4.d will be applicable,
