A permit shall be issued only upon proper application and determination by the Department that the proposed site and facility are physically and technically suitable. B. Upon a finding that a proposed hazardous waste facility is not physically or technically suitable, the Department shall deny the permit. C. In accordance with the provisions of Section 2-14-304 of this title, an administrative permit hearing shall be available on a proposed permit which is based on a Tier III hazardous waste permit application for a new permit or for the modification of an existing permit involving a fifty percent (50%) or more increase in permitted capacity for storage, treatment or disposal including but not limited to incineration. D. The Department may, upon determining that public health or safety requires emergency action, issue a temporary permit for treatment or storage of hazardous waste or recyclable material for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days without the prior notices and opportunity to request a public meeting or the administrative permit hearing required by this section or the Oklahoma Uniform Environmental Permitting Act. Any person aggrieved by such permit may seek judicial review.
