WAC 173-240-110
Submission of plans and reports. (1)
Before constructing or modifying industrial wastewater
facilities, engineering reports and plans and specifications for
the project must be submitted to and approved by the department.
(2) All engineering reports and plans and specifications
should be submitted by the owner consistent with a compliance
schedule issued by the department or at least thirty days before
the time approval is desired. The department will generally
review and either approve (or conditionally approve), comment on,
or disapprove those plans and reports within the thirty-day
period unless circumstances prevent, in which case the owner will
be notified and informed of the reason for the delay.
(3) Construction or modification of industrial wastewater
facilities shall conform to the following schedule of tasks
unless waived in accordance with subsection (5).
(a) Submission and approval of an engineering report;
(b) Submission and approval of plans and specifications;
(c) Submission of an operation and maintenance manual.
(4) Where two or more years has elapsed since approval of
the engineering report or plans and specifications, it may be
necessary to update that document to reflect changed water
quality conditions, regulatory requirements, or engineering
technology.
(5) Upon request by the owner, the department may waive the
requirement for a three step submission of documents for
industrial facilities. In such a case the department will
require instead conceptual plans that also include the
appropriate (as determined by the department) information from
the engineering report and an operation and maintenance manual.
