# §124.211. What types of changes may I make to my standardized permit?


You may make both routine changes, routine changes with prior Agency approval, and significant changes. For the purposes of this section:

- (a) “Routine changes” are any changes to the standardized permit that qualify as a class 1 permit modification (without prior Agency approval) under [40 CFR 270.42](/cfr/40/270.42.md), appendix I, and
- (b) “Routine changes with prior Agency approval” are for those changes to the standardized permit that would qualify as a class 1 modification with prior agency approval, or a class 2 permit modification under [40 CFR 270.42](/cfr/40/270.42.md), appendix I; and
- (c) “Significant changes” are any changes to the standardized permit that:
  - (1) Qualify as a class 3 permit modification under [40 CFR 270.42](/cfr/40/270.42.md), appendix I;
  - (2) Are not explicitly identified in [40 CFR 270.42](/cfr/40/270.42.md), appendix I; or
  - (3) **Amend any terms or conditions in the supplemental portion of your standardized permit.**

# §124.212. What procedures must I follow to make routine changes?

- (a) **You can make routine changes to the standardized permit without obtaining approval from the Director.** However, you must first determine whether the routine change you will make amends the information you submitted under [40 CFR 270.275](/cfr/40/270.275.md) with your Notice of Intent to operate under the standardized permit.
- (b) If the routine changes you make amend the information you submitted under [40 CFR 270.275](/cfr/40/270.275.md) with your Notice of Intent to operate under the standardized permit, then before you make the routine changes you must:
  - (1) Submit to the Director the revised information pursuant to [40 CFR 270.275(a)](/cfr/40/270.275.md?p=a); and
  - (2) Provide notice of the changes to the facility mailing list and to state and local governments in accordance with the procedures in § [124.10(c)(1)(ix)](/cfr/40/124.10.md?p=c-1-ix) and [(x)](/cfr/40/124.10.md?p=c-1-x).

# §124.213. What procedures must I follow to make routine changes with prior approval?

- (a) Routine changes to the standardized permit with prior Agency approval may only be made with the prior written approval of the Director.
- (b) You must also follow the procedures in [§ 124.212(b)(1)-(2)](/cfr/40/124.212.md?p=b-1..b-2).

# §124.214. What procedures must I follow to make significant changes?

- (a) You must first provide notice of and conduct a public meeting.
  - (1) **Public Meeting.** You must hold a meeting with the public to solicit questions from the community and inform the community of your proposed modifications to your hazardous waste management activities. You must post a sign-in sheet or otherwise provide a voluntary opportunity for people attending the meeting to provide their names and addresses.
  - (2) **Public Notice.** At least 30 days before you plan to hold the meeting, you must issue a public notice in accordance with the requirements of [§ 124.31(d)](/cfr/40/124.31.md?p=d).
- (b) After holding the public meeting, you must submit a modification request to the Director that:
  - (1) Describes the exact change(s) you want and whether they are changes to information you provided under [40 CFR 270.275](/cfr/40/270.275.md) or to terms and conditions in the supplemental portion of your standardized permit;
  - (2) Explain why the modification is needed; and
  - (3) Includes a summary of the public meeting under [paragraph (a)](#a) of this section, along with the list of attendees and their addresses and copies of any written comments or materials they submitted at the meeting.
- (c) Once the Director receives your modification request, he or she must make a tentative determination within 120 days to approve or disapprove your request. You are allowed a one time extension of 30 days to prepare the draft permit decision. When the use of the 30-day extension is anticipated, you should inform the permit applicant during the initial 120-day review period.
- (d) After the Director makes this tentative determination, the procedures in [§ 124.205](/cfr/40/124.205.md) and [§§ 124.207 through 124.210](/cfr/40/124.207..124.210.md) for processing an initial request for coverage under the standardized permit apply to making the final determination on the modification request.
