The federal Clean Water Act provides that the discharge of any pollutants from a point source into surface water of the United States must be regulated under the Wyoming Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (WYPDES) Program. Through this program, operators of a point source discharge are required to receive coverage under a WYPDES discharge permit. The permits contain limitations and conditions that will assure that the state's surface water quality standards are protected.
Before a WYPDES permit can be issued, the proposed permit must be published in a 30-day public notice. The public notice is a vehicle for informing all interested parties of the contents of a draft permit and other significant actions. The intent of the public notice is to provide an opportunity for the public to comment on the proposed permit.
If you are interested in receiving a copy of WYPDES
public notices, you may submit a written request to Leah Krafft, Wyoming
Department of Environmental Quality, Water Quality Division, 122 West
25th Street, Cheyenne, WY 82002. Current and recent WYPDES public
notices can also be viewed on the DEQ/WQD
Current Events Page.
Permit Fees: Beginning July 1, 2013 payment of permit fees for individual permits and general permit authorizations are required to be submitted with the permit permit application or NOI form. Some types of permits have flat fees and others have variable fees that must be calculated. The "Fee Calculator" should be used to determine the proper amount to be submitted with each application or NOI. Checks should be made out to the "Dept. of Environmental Quality, Water Quality Division.
