Alaska Admin. Code tit. 20, § 25.1100 – Draft permit; fact sheet

(a) The commission may issue a draft storage facility permit when the commission determines an application under 20 AAC 25.1050 is complete, including receipt of any supplemental information required by the commission. After the commission determines that an application for a storage facility permit is complete, the commission will either prepare a draft permit or deny the application. The commission will determine the completeness of an application for a storage facility permit independently of any other permit application or permit for the same facility or activity.
(b) If the commission tentatively decides to deny an application for a storage facility permit, it will issue a notice of intent to deny. Except for a denial based on an incomplete application, a notice of intent to deny an application for a permit is a type of draft permit, and the commission will follow the procedure as any draft permit prepared under this section. If the commission's final decision is that the tentative decision to deny a permit was incorrect, the commission will withdraw the notice of intent to deny and proceed to prepare a draft permit under this section.
(c) Before preparing a draft permit,
1. (1) the commission will determine the storage capacity of the proposed storage facility under 20 AAC 25.1280 and the fee to be charged to the person applying for the permit under AS 41.06.120 (a)(3) and (4); and
2. (2) will make the consultation required in AS 41.06.130.
(d) In addition to the findings required under AS 41.06.130, a draft permit must include all the permit conditions required under 20 AAC 25.1120, 20 AAC 25.1130, all compliance schedules under 20 AAC 25.1140, all monitoring requirements under 20 AAC 25.1250, and other conditions determined by the commission.
(e) The commission will prepare a fact sheet for each draft permit for each completed storage facility permit application under 20 AAC 25.1050. In addition to setting out the principal facts, and the significant factual, legal, methodological, and policy questions identified by the commission, a fact sheet must include, as applicable
1. (1) a brief description of the type of facility or activity that is the subject of the draft permit;
2. (2) the type and quantity of carbon dioxide that is to be injected and stored;
3. (3) a brief summary of the basis for the draft permit conditions including references to applicable statutes and regulations;
4. (4) reasons why any requested variances or alternatives to required standards do or do not appear justified;
5. (5) a description of the procedure for making a final decision on the draft permit, including
  1. (A) the beginning and ending dates of the comment period under 20 AAC 25.1050 and the address where comments will be received;
  2. (B) how to request a hearing and the nature of that hearing;
  3. (C) any other procedures by which the public may participate in the final decision;
  4. (D) the name and contact information, including a telephone number, of a person to contact for additional information;
6. (6) if applicable, a description of information related to a Class VI well injection depth waiver request under 20 AAC 25.1270.
(f) The commission will notify and provide a copy of the draft permit and fact sheet, or if applicable, a notice of intent to deny, to persons entitled to notice under 20 AAC 25.1150; the materials required to be publicly provided may be provided electronically and may include an electronic link to access the materials.
