NAC445A.902. Minor modifications to permit.


Latest version.
  • With the consent of the holder of a permit issued pursuant to NAC 445A.810 to 445A.925, inclusive, and without public notice, the Director may make minor modifications to the permit to:

         1. Correct typographical errors.

         2. Increase or decrease the frequency of monitoring, reporting or sampling. The Director may modify the permit to decrease the frequency of monitoring, reporting or sampling only if he or she has determined that the injection process has not changed and the historic data demonstrates such consistency that continued monitoring will not provide additional, relevant information.

         3. Change an interim compliance date in a schedule of compliance if the new date is not more than 120 days after the date specified in the permit and does not interfere with attainment of the final compliance date requirements.

         4. Allow for a change in ownership or operational control of a facility if:

         (a) The Director determines that no other change in the permit is necessary;

         (b) The holder of the permit and the person to whom ownership or operational control will be transferred have entered into a written agreement containing a specific date for the transfer of the responsibility, coverage and liability required for the facility under the permit; and

         (c) A copy of the written agreement has been provided to the Director.

         5. Change the quantity or type of fluids injected that are within the capability of the facility as permitted if, in the judgment of the Director, the change in quantity or type of fluid will not interfere with the operation of the facility or its ability to meet the conditions prescribed by the permit for the operation of the facility and will not change the classification of the facility.

         6. Change requirements relating to construction if the change in requirements complies with the requirements of this section and NAC 445A.905 to 445A.925, inclusive.

         7. Amend a plan that has been updated pursuant to subsection 2 of NAC 445A.923 for plugging and abandoning an injection well.
