Redetermination of Coverage

Redetermination of Coverage. (1) Coverage under a general permit ends on the date that the term of the general permit ends. (2) The department shall send notification to owners at least 365 days prior to the expiration of the general permit that the general permit will expire and that redetermination of coverage is required. The department shall send notification to owners using the most economical communication tool available and the most recent contact information submitted by the owner. (3) Owners that have received notice of coverage under a general permit that intend to continue a withdrawal that averages 100,000 gallons per day or more in any 30-day period but that does not equal at least 1,000,000 gallons per day for any 30 consecutive days, shall apply to the department using the method prescribed by the department for redetermination of coverage under a new general permit at least 180 days before the end of the term of the general permit. The failure of an owner to apply for redetermination at least 180 days prior to the expiration of the general permit shall not result in the loss of an established baseline or specified withdrawal amount. (4) If the owner applying for a redetermination is in substantial compliance with the current general permit and qualifies for coverage under a new general permit, the department shall issue notice of coverage under the new general permit. (5) The department shall follow the requirements of s. NR 860.22 (3) , when reviewing the request for redetermination of coverage. (6) A redetermination of coverage shall specify a withdrawal amount equal to the withdrawal amount of the previous issuance of coverage unless the owner requests a reduced amount.
