Section 19.033 - Permit Procedure for an Application for a Permit Modification or Other Approval(1)General. 310 CMR 19.033 describes the permit procedure for a permit application for certain modifications to a facility or other permit application as specified in 310 CMR 19.029(2).(2)Issuance of Permit Decision. The Department shall mail a copy of its permit decision on an application to the applicant, the board of health of the municipality in which the facility is located, the board of health of any municipality within 1/2 mile of the proposed facility and any other person who has requested in writing that the Department provide a copy of the permit decision.(3)Effective Date. Unless otherwise stated in the permit decision, the permit decision shall be effective upon its issuance.(4)Review of Decision. (a)Provisional Decision. The Department may defer the effective date of a permit decision for the purpose of obtaining comments by issuing a provisional permit decision. Such a provisional decision shall be accompanied by a notice stating that written comments may be submitted to the Department for a period of at least 21 days after the date of issuance of the provisional decision. Prior to the effective date established therein, the Department shall issue a final permit decision at the end of the comment period.(b) Where no provisional decision is issued, an applicant aggrieved by the Department's permit decision, within 21 days of the issuance of the Department's permit decision to the applicant, may file a written request, with the appropriate regional office of the Department, that the permit decision be deemed a provisional decision, and a written statement of the basis on which the applicant believes it is aggrieved, together with any supporting materials. Upon timely filing of such a request, the permit decision shall be deemed a provisional decision. Such a request shall reopen the administrative record, and the Department shall issue a final permit decision after the end of the comment period. Failure by an applicant to exercise the right provided in 310 CMR 19.033(4)(b) shall constitute a waiver of the applicant's right to appeal.(5)Legal Challenges.(a)Appeal. Any person aggrieved by the final permit decision, except as provided for under 310 CMR 19.0337(4)(b), may file an appeal for judicial review of said permit decision in accordance with the provisions of M.G.L. c. 111, § 150A and M.G.L. c. 30A no later than 30 days following the date of issuance of the final permit decision to the applicant. The standing of a person to file an appeal and the procedures for filing such appeal shall be governed by the provisions of M.G.L. c. 30A. Unless the person requesting an appeal requests and is granted a stay of the terms and conditions of the final permit decision by a court of competent jurisdiction, the final permit decision shall be effective in accordance with 310 CMR 19.033(3).(b)Notice of Action. Any aggrieved person intending to appeal a final permit decision to the Superior Court shall first provide notice of intention to commence such action. Said notices of intention shall include the Department file number and shall identify with particularity the issues and reason why it is believed the final permit decision was not proper. Such notice shall be provided to the Office of General Counsel of the Department and the Regional Director for the regional office which processed the permit application, if applicable, at least five days prior to the filing of an appeal.(c) No allegation shall be made in any judicial appeal of a final permit decision unless the matter complained of was raised at the appropriate point in the administrative review procedures established in 310 CMR 19.000, provided that a matter may be raised upon a showing that it is material and that it was not reasonably possible with due diligence to have been raised during such procedures or that matter sought to be raised is of critical importance to the environmental impact of the permitted activity.
