Application process
The following documentation must be submitted in writing for DEQ to conduct a risk screening and for the permit application to be complete.
Risk screening information
The following facility operational and physical information is necessary for DEQ to conduct a risk screening. At minimum, the information should address how the proposed conversion technology facility will comply with all performance standards in OAR 340-096-0170. If you have any questions, please contact your local DEQ Regional Solid Waste Permit Coordinator to discuss.
What to expect
DEQ will notify applicants of risk screening results. Conversion technology facilities that DEQ determines present a low risk will be issued a Registration Permit; an expanded Site Operations Plan may be required. Facilities that present a potential risk to the environment or public health will be required to submit a Site Operations Plan (with fees) for DEQ approval and will receive an Individual Conversion Technology Facility Permit once the operations plan is approved.
