Authorizing Eligibility for Notification Tier

Overview

Sites and operations that meet specific qualifications are eligible for the notification tier rather than a solid waste facility permit.

Title 14, Section 18103.1(2), requires that submittal of a notification contain information regarding the site's "authorizing eligibility." In other words, which regulation is being cited to confirm that an operation qualifies for the notification tier.

The following chart identifies which section of Title 14 should be referenced in the notification. If the notification form (CIWMB 169) is used, the information in the right-hand column should be included in the field titled "authorizing eligibility."

For your convenience, a list of the "authorizing eligibility" citations has been added to the reverse of the notification form, CIWMB 169 [MS Word (98 KB), Adobe PDF (80 KB)].

Authorizing Eligibility Chart

Please cite only one of the following Title 14 regulations when filling in the “authorizing eligibility” box of notification form. Note: Read the entire text of the applicable regulations, including relevant definitions, before submitting or accepting the notification form.
