(2) The applicant shall pay $700.00 simultaneously with submission of the permit application. The applicant shall pay the balance of all fees due, including, but not limited to, the application fee required by this section, the annual fee required by Section 22a-430-7 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies, any fee increases pursuant to subsection (n) of this section and all applicable late fees, within the time specified in any notice from the Commissioner of the balance due. If no time is specified, the applicant shall pay the balance due within thirty days of the date such notice is issued.

(3) The Commissioner, upon consideration of all factors which he or she deems relevant to the amount of time needed to act on the particular application, may reduce the amount of the application fee for reissuance of a particular permit to no less than 75% of the fee established in schedule A of this section if both of the following conditions are met:

(A) The applicant, as part of the application for permit reissuance, demonstrates to the Commissioner's satisfaction that no significant changes have occurred or will occur between the date the prior permit was issued and the date of reissuance of the permit that would indicate that the permit fee should be lowered. Such changes may include but are not limited to changes to the facility or any discharge which are not required by statute or regulation, and changes to the facility, any discharge or the permit which are required by statute or regulation or which the Commissioner deems necessary in order to protect the waters of the state from pollution.

(B) The application includes the following certification signed by the applicant: "I hereby certify, as part of this application for reissuance of Permit No. __, and based on my inquiry of the person or persons responsible for operating the facility described in this application, that (1) this application does not include any new or increased discharges other than those authorized by said permit or another valid permit issued by the Commissioner under Section 22a-430 of the General Statutes, (2) since the date of said permit, no unpermitted discharges have been initiated, created, originated or maintained at the facility and (3) since the date of said permit, no new substances have been added to any discharge at the facility, and no changes have been made to the facility, that would constitute a new source or require a new or modified permit under Section 22a-430 of the General Statutes, other than new discharges and changes which were authorized by a new or modified permit. I am aware that there are penalties for submitting false information, including the possibility of fine and imprisonment for knowingly making false statements, and that a permit may be revoked for reasons including, but not limited to, an applicant's failure to disclose all relevant facts, or misrepresentation of any relevant facts at any time."

(e)Modification fees.

(1) The fee for modification of a permit shall be as follows:

(A) for correction of typographical errors - no fee.

(B) for extension of interim or final compliance dates due to an error or unreasonable delay of the Commissioner - no fee.

(C) Except as allowed under subparagraph (1) (E) of this subsection, for a modification resulting from a change required by state or federal statute, regulation, permit, order or the Connecticut Water Quality Standards, the fee shall be one-half the permit application fee specified in subsection (d) of this section, or $500.00, whichever is greater.

(D) Except as allowed under subparagraph (1) (E) of this subsection, for a modification to reflect the discharge of any new water, substance or material or any increase in any water, substance or material beyond existing permit conditions, the fee shall be the permit application fee and annual fee specified in subsection (d) of this section as if the new or increased discharge were the subject of an application for a new permit.

(E) If the Commissioner determines that a modification under subparagraphs (1) (C) or (1) (D) of this subsection requires no more staff resources in a particular case than the staff resources generally required for minor modifications under Section 22a-430-4(p) (5) (B) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies, the fee shall be $500.00.

(F) For all other modifications to permits the fee shall be $500.00.

(2) Any person or municipality applying for a permit modification shall pay the entire permit modification fee simultaneously with submission of the application. For a permit modification for which no application is submitted, the entire permit modification fee shall be paid on or before thirty (30) days after the issuance of notice from the Commissioner that it is due.

(f)Discharge category. If the Commissioner upon review determines that an applicant's categorization of a discharge for purposes of calculating a fee or the applicant's calculation of a fee is incorrect, the Commissioner shall notify the applicant of his or her determination. Such determination shall be final. Should additional payment be due, the Commissioner shall not continue with review of the application until full payment is made. The Commissioner shall determine the amount of the permit application fees for any discharge category which is not listed in Schedule A, based on the reasonable cost of reviewing and acting upon a permit application for such a discharge.

(g)Waiver. The Commissioner may waive, reduce, or allow delayed payment of all or part of a fee in cases in which he or she determines that the amount of the fee is clearly excessive in relation to the cost of the permitted activity.

(h)Transfer fee. The fee for transfer of a permit or application shall be $500.00. A permit shall not be transferred prior to payment of all required fees and the approval of the transfer by the Commissioner, as required by Section 22a-430-4 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies. No applicant shall be required to pay both a transfer fee and a permit modification fee for the sole purpose of obtaining a permit transfer.

(i)Payment of new fee. The Commissioner may at his or her discretion require submission of a new permit application and payment of a new application fee, regardless of any fees previously paid or required, whenever the Commissioner acts under Section 22a-430-4(k) (5) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies and under the following conditions:

(1) An application has been determined by the Commissioner to be complete and, at the applicant's request, no further action is taken by the Commissioner for more than one hundred and eighty (180) days from the date the application is determined to be complete.

(2) An application is determined by the Commissioner to be incomplete and more than one hundred eighty (180) days have elapsed since the Commissioner's most recent request to the applicant or his or her agent for additional information and the applicant has not submitted such information.

(j)Prohibition of review. The Commissioner shall not review an application for an individual permit under Section 22a-430 of the Connecticut General Statutes, including, but not limited to, an application for a new, reissued, modified or transferred permit, and shall not issue any such permit, unless all fees required by this section and Section 22a-430-7 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies have been paid in full. Unless the Commissioner specifies otherwise in writing, a registration for a general permit under Section 22a-430b of the Connecticut General Statutes shall not be deemed complete and coverage under the general permit shall not begin unless all fees required by this section have been paid in full.

(k)Late fee.

(1) A late fee of twenty-five percent of the application fee and the annual fee required by this section shall be charged, in addition to any other fee required by this section, if (A) the applicant fails to submit a complete application for reissuance on or before the required due date, if any; or (B) the applicant begins the activity to be permitted prior to applying for the required permit. The applicant or permittee shall pay an additional five percent of the amount of the application fee and the annual fee required by this section for each month or part thereof beyond the date on which a new or reissued permit was required during which a complete application is not on file with the Commissioner.

(2) An applicant or permittee who fails to pay any required fee when due shall pay an additional five percent of the amount of such fee for each month or part thereof that such fee is overdue.

(3) This subsection shall not prevent the Commissioner from pursuing other remedies available by statute or regulation.

(l)Exemption. Discharges from a building used solely as a single-family residence or from a swimming pool at a single family residence shall be exempt from all fee requirements under this section.

(m)Municipal fees.

(1) As required by Section 22a-6(b) of the Connecticut General Statutes, any fee charged to a municipality pursuant to this section shall be fifty percent of the fee that would be charged to other applicants or permittees.

(2) As required by Section 22a-6(c) of the Connecticut General Statutes, for municipalities that own more than one POTW, the fee for a permit application for each such POTW is either (A) determined by dividing the fee in schedule A for the sum of the average daily flow proposed in the application plus the permitted average daily flows for all other municipally owned POTWs, by the total number of municipally owned POTWs, or (B) fifty percent of the fee that would be charged to other applicants or permittees for a discharge of sanitary sewage in the amount proposed in the application, whichever is less.

(n)Fee increases. If any change is made in an application which would result in an increase in the fee, or if the fee for permit issuance, reissuance, modification or transfer under this section or the annual fee under Section 22a-430-7 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies increases before (1) a final determination of the Commissioner, or (2) approval of plans and specifications under Section 22a-430-4(k) of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies, whichever is later, the applicant shall pay the amount of such increase. Such payment shall be made (1) on or before thirty (30) days after issuance of notice from the Commissioner of the fee increase, or (2) before the permit is issued, whichever is earlier. The provisions of this subsection shall not apply to applications which were received by the Commissioner prior to July 1, 1993 and which, by that date, included all required fees and all information required by statute, regulation or prior request of the Commissioner.

(o)Credits and refunds.

(1) If the Commissioner determines that a permit under Section 22a-430 or Section 22a-430b of the Connecticut General Statutes is not required for the activity or a portion of the activity described in a permit application, or if any change is made to an application which would result in a decrease in the fee, and neither the public notice nor a final decision on the application has been issued, the Commissioner shall retain one half of all application fees due to date for the subject application, and shall credit to the applicant the balance of any application and annual fees paid, to be applied to future fees due to the Commissioner under a statute or regulation administered by him or her. If the Commissioner denies a permit, he or she shall credit to the applicant any annual fee paid, to be applied to future fees due to the Commissioner under a statute or regulation administered by him or her.

(2) If an application fee and an annual fee are submitted for an individual permit under Section 22a-430 of the Connecticut General Statutes, and the Commissioner determines (A) that the discharge is covered in accordance with the terms, including any registration requirements, of a general permit issued under Section 22a-430b of the Connecticut General Statutes, and (B) that the fee for such general permit is less than the fee paid, the Commissioner shall deduct the general permit fee from the fees paid and credit the remainder to the applicant to be applied to future fees due to the Commissioner under a statute or regulation administered by him or her.

(3) If, immediately prior to permit issuance, the total paid by the applicant is more than the sum of all required fees, including late fees, required under this section and Section 22a-430-7 of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies, the Commissioner shall credit the excess payment to the applicant to be applied to future fees due to the Commissioner under a statute or regulation administered by him or her.

(4) Modification and transfer fees shall be non-refundable, except that modification fees specified in subparagraphs (C) and (D) of subdivision (1) of subsection (e) of this section shall be subject to the credit and refund provisions of this subsection.

(5) If the Commissioner issues or intends to issue a credit to an applicant under this subsection and the applicant demonstrates to the Commissioner's satisfaction that no future fees can reasonably be expected to be required of the applicant, the Commissioner shall refund the excess payment to the applicant.

(6) There shall be no credits or refunds other than as specified in this subsection.
