Section 410IAC6-10.1-53. Construction permit conditions  


Latest version.
  •    (a) The department may specify in its construction permits any limitations, terms, or conditions necessary to provide a functional, easily operated, enduring commercial on-site sewage system in accordance with this rule, or to prevent a health hazard, nuisance, surface water pollution or ground water pollution. In addition, all commercial on-site sewage system construction permits shall contain the following requirements, not necessarily verbatim:

    (1) That the original permit expiration date shall be one (1) year after permit issuance.

    (2) That if the applicant has started installation of equipment, piping, or tankage that will comprise part of the commercial on-site sewage system, on or before the original date of permit expiration, the permit shall expire two (2) years after issuance.

    (3) That all necessary local permits and approvals be obtained before construction is begun.

    (4) That any proposed changes, alterations, or additions to the commercial on-site sewage system herein approved, be submitted to the department for review and approval prior to the start of construction to effect the proposed changes, alterations, or additions.

    (5) That no change in occupancy or use of the facility served be effected if it would result in sewage flow on the peak day in excess of the capacity of the commercial on-site sewage system as stated in the construction permit, or if it would result in sewage being generated of a type incompatible with absorption field disposal. Any such change in occupancy or use may be made only after the department has issued a construction permit for modifications to the subject commercial on-site sewage system that will allow it to accommodate increased sewage flows.

    (6) That if pollution, health hazards, or nuisance conditions occur that are attributable to the commercial on-site sewage system permitted herein, immediate corrective action be taken by the owner.

    (7) That the permittee notify the department and the local health department at least seven (7) days before construction of the approved commercial on-site sewage system is to commence.

      (b) No construction on the commercial on-site sewage system may take place if the commercial on-site sewage system site is disturbed or altered after the on-site evaluation by the addition of fill material (other than construction necessary for the commercial on-site sewage system) or by cutting, scraping, compaction, or the removal of soil, until a new on-site evaluation has been conducted and a modified construction permit has been issued.
