A. 

A user with an expiring industrial discharge permit shall apply for reissuance of the industrial discharge permit by submitting a complete permit application, in accordance with § 136-26, Industrial discharge permit application contents, of this chapter, a minimum of 60 days prior to the expiration of the user's existing industrial discharge permit. Under no circumstances shall the permittee continue to discharge without an effective permit.

B. 

An expired permit will continue to be effective and enforceable until the permit is reissued if:

(1) 

The industrial user has submitted a complete permit application at least 60 days prior to the expiration date of the user's existing permit; and

(2) 

The failure to reissue the permit, prior to expiration of the previous permit, is not due to any act or failure to act on the part of the industrial user.
