Wastewater discharge permit transfer.
Oklahoma City Municipal Code § 47-305
in effect§ 47-305. - Wastewater discharge permit transfer.
(a) Wastewater discharge permits are issued to a specific user for a specific operation. A wastewater discharge permit shall not be reassigned or transferred or sold to a new owner, new user, different premises, or a new or changed operation without the approval of the director. Changes in operation or processing which result in a change in the permit conditions, limitations, or requirements will require a new permit, and the existing permit will not be reassigned. Any succeeding owner or user shall comply with the terms and conditions of the existing permit.
(b) Wastewater discharge permits may be reassigned or transferred to a new owner and/or operator only if the permittee gives at least 30 days advance notice to the director, the permit premises have not changed, the processes and operations at the premises have not changed, and the director approves the wastewater discharge permit transfer. The notice to the director must include a written certification by the new owner and/or operator which:
(1) states that the new owner and/or operator have no immediate intent to change the facility's operations and processes.
(2) identifies the specific date on which the transfer is to occur.
(3) acknowledges full responsibility for complying with the existing wastewater discharge permit.
(c) Failure to provide advance notice of a transfer renders the wastewater discharge permit voidable on the date of the facility transfer.
