Upon receipt of an application for a hazardous waste disposal site permit, the Department of Environmental Quality shall cause copies of the application to be sent to affected state agencies, including the Oregon Health Authority, the Public Utility Commission, the State Fish and Wildlife Commission and the Water Resources Director. Each agency shall respond by making a recommendation as to whether the permit application should be granted. If the Oregon Health Authority recommends against granting the permit, the Environmental Quality Commission must refuse to issue the permit. Recommendation from other agencies shall be considered as evidence in determining whether to grant the permit. [Formerly 459.570; 1987 c.540 26; 2009 c.595 944]
