Standards for Issuance

Section 309 Section 309.241  Standards for Issuance a)         The Agency must not grant any permit required by this Subpart B, except an experimental permit under Section 309.206, unless the applicant submits adequate proof that the treatment works, pretreatment works, sewer, or wastewater source will be constructed, modified, or operated so as not to cause a violation of the Act or this Subtitle. b)         If the Agency has promulgated criteria under Section 309.262 concerning any part or condition of a permit, then for purposes of permit issuance, proof of conformity with the criteria is prima facie evidence of no violation.  However, non-conformity with the criteria is not grounds to deny the permit application if the applicant meets the condition of subsection (a).
