The Director may waive the procedures required in OAR 340-045 and issue a special, short-term WPCF permit for unexpected or emergency activities, operations, emissions or discharges. Such a permit is valid for not more than 60 days from date of issuance. DEQ will develop such a permit to ensure it adequately protects property and preserves public health, welfare and resources. Application for a special WPCF permit must be in writing and may be in the form of a letter that fully describes the emergency and the proposed activities, operations, emissions, or discharges.
