# §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.
