TITLE 252. Department of Environmental Quality |
Chapter 653. Aquifer Storage and Recovery |
Subchapter 5. Aquifer Storage and Recovery Treatment Plant Construction |
SECTION 252:653-5-3. Variances from construction standards
Latest version.
- The policy of DEQ is to encourage better water treatment methods and equipment, including the use of new technology. DEQ may approve processes or equipment not specifically covered by the standards in this Chapter provided the permittee requests an approvable variance. A variance from the standards in this Chapter may be allowed, upon the request of the applicant, if DEQ finds the variance will not increase the likelihood of a system failure or detrimental effects to the aquifer. No variance will be allowed unless it is noted on the construction permit.
