"ED0117U mumiT Evir4entiary Hearing (40 CFR 124.74)

(a) Within 30 days following service of notice of the Regional Administrator's final permit deC:Lsion under 124.15 any interected person may sut:mit a request to the Regional Administrator under paragraph (b) of this section for an evidentiary hearing to

...o r==it.or.cxmtest that.daci %. If such a regnest is autnitted ty a person other than the permittee, the person shall m4=1*=neously serve a egy.nf the.rar on the.pa=4 h.

-tb)(1)

.In accordance with 124.96, s:-

rague.sts shall state mach legal or factual question alleged to be at issue, and their relevance to the permit decision, together with a designation of the specific factual areas to be adjudicated and the hearing time estimated.to ' be necessary for adjtwh* 4 en.. Information

• supporting the request er otbcr written documents relied upon to

.x support the request shall be suinitted as required by 124.73 unless they are already part of the administrative record required by 124.18.

Note:

. 3his paragraph. allows:the.zufrission of. requests.for evidentiary hearings even though both legal and factual issues may be

,,. raised, or only legal issues may be raised.

In the latter case, because no factual issues were

raised, the Regional Administrator would be required to deny the request.

However, on review of the denial the Administrator is authorized by 124.91(a)(1) to review policy or legal conclusions of the Regional Administrator.

IPA is requiring an appeal to the i

Administrator even of purely legal issues involved in a permit decision to ensure that the Administrator will have an opportunity to review any penait before it will be final and subject to jnMc4=1 review.

(2) Persons requestin3.za evidentiary hearing on an tFDES permit..under this section tray also request an evidentiary hearing on a EmA or UIC pemit, PSD permits may never be made part of an evidentiary bearing c.-mar. cn%tz.?. %is request is.sutrject to all the requirements' of pe.ap-yh (b)(1) of.this.sectico and in addition will be granted only

.if:

(i) Procesidng of the RCRA or UIC permit at ir. sue was consolidated with the proces ing of the IEDES permit as provided in.124.4; (ii)

.2he standards for granting a hearing on the 1FDES permit are met; (idi) 2he resolution of the ITDES pemit issues is likely to make necessary or appropriate modification of the RCRA or DIC pemit; and O

s 4

($v)

If a PSD permit is involved, a permittee who is eligible for an evidentiary hearing under Subpart E on his or her HPDES permit requests that the formal hearing be conducted under the procedures of Subpart. F ard the Regional Administrator finds, that consolidation is unlikely to delay final permit issuance beyond the PSD one-year statutory deadline.

(c)-

2h.ese requests shall also.contain:

..saaking such request; (2)
