Section 18.72.600. Application for department approval.

	(a)  A person who constructs, alters, installs, modifies, or operates any part of a nondomestic wastewater treatment works or disposal system must first have written department approval of engineering plans submitted under this section.  
	(b)  If construction, alteration, installation, modification, or operation has not begun within two years after issuance of plan approval, the approval is void, and plans must be resubmitted to the department for review and approval.  
	(c)  Engineering plans required by (a) of this section must include  
		(1) the location of proposed or existing improvements, wastewater treatment works and disposal systems, sewers, drinking water supply lines, drinking water sources, and waters in the vicinity of the proposed system;  
		(2) detailed flow diagrams showing the physical and chemical composition and amount of each nondomestic wastewater disposal;  
		(3) a statement identifying persons who will own, operate, and maintain the proposed system;  
		(4) a description and timetable of the proposed construction or other activity;  
		(5) information on sludge handling and disposal from the proposed treatment works; and  
		(6) other information the department requires to assess compliance with this chapter, 18 AAC 83.005 - 18 AAC 83.990, or the terms of a permit issued by the department under 18 AAC 83.005 - 18 AAC 83.990 or a permit certified by the department under 18 AAC 15.130 - 18 AAC 15.180.  
	(d)  As the department determines necessary to ensure compliance with this chapter and adequately protect public health, public and private water systems, and the environment, the department will attach terms and conditions, including monitoring, sampling, and reporting conditions, to submitted plans.  
	(e)  An accurate and complete set of record documents for nondomestic wastewater treatment works and disposal systems with a discharge greater than 10,000 gallons per day must be submitted to the department within 90 days after the project's startup date. The department may waive this requirement if, after an onsite inspection, it finds that the system was built as approved.
