Is there any information available to me on permits in my area? NPDES permits can be renewed reissued at any time after the permit holder applies.
In addition, NPDES permits can be administratively extended if the facility reapplies more than days before the permit expires, and EPA or the state regulatory agencythat issued the original permit, does not renew the permit before its expiration date through no fault of the permittee.
Individual permits are issued directly to an individual discharger whereas a general permit is issued to no one in particular with multiple dischargers obtaining coverage under that general permit after it is issued, consistent with the permit eligibility and authorization provisions. As such, dischargers covered under general permits know their applicable requirements before obtaining coverage under that permit. Furthermore, obtaining coverage under a general permit is typically quicker than an individual permit with coverage under a general permit often occurring immediately depending on how the permit is written or after a short waiting period.
Coverage under an individual permit may take six months or longer. An NOI differs from an individual permit application in that it is submitted by Operators after the general permit is issued by the permitting authority. In these instances, Operators must comply with applicable permit requirements for their pesticide applications without submission of any paperwork to the permitting authority or in some instances, submission of some other type of notification document. The application form must be submitted to the permitting authority at least days before the expected commencement of the discharge.
What does submittal of an NOI mean? A Notice of Intent NOI for a general permit is similar to a permit application, in that it is notification to the regulatory authority of a planned discharge for which coverage under a specific National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System NPDES general permit is needed and contains information about the discharge and the Operator of that discharge.
By signing and submitting the NOI, the Operator is certifying that the discharge meets all of the eligibility conditions specified in the general permit e. A fraudulent or erroneous NOI invalidates permit coverage.

What, if anything, do I need to include with my application form s? Each situation is different. Some applicants will need to submit an engineering report.
Some will need to submit an 'alternatives analysis' demonstrating that discharging pollutants into surface water is the only option realistically available part of an anti-degradation analysis. We strongly urge you to discuss your specific situation with a DHEC permitting expert early in your planning process to determine exactly what you'll need to submit.
There are so many variables that can affect whether or not DHEC will grant an individual NPDES permit that two similar industries may apply for the same permit but get different outcomes depending on the discharge location. Each pplicant for an individual permit must undergo a case-specific review.
How long will it take to review and approve my application? This is a tough question to answer with without knowing project details. For general NPDES permits, we usually complete our staff review process within a couple of weeks once we receive the completed paperwork and documentation that allow us to grant coverage to your business under the general permit. For individual NPDES permits, our goal is to complete our staff review and approval process which includes an EPA review and a public notice process within working days or less once we receive all the completed paperwork and documentation.
Typically, though, individual permits take longer than working days because applicants frequently need to provide additional information to DHEC.
If you're applying for an individual permit, plan on at least calendar days to obtain a permit decision from DHEC. As with the general permit, if you fail to submit all required documentation at the beginning of the application process, approvals can take longer.
Meeting with a DHEC permitting expert early in your planning process will pay off big by helping you avoid delays. Where do I submit my application?
