- a) Critical review means the Agency's determination that a sewer is approaching hydraulic capacity or a sewage treatment plant is approaching design capacity and, as a result, additional sewer connection permit applications will require close scrutiny to determine whether issuance would result in a violation of the Act or regulations.
- b) Notification of Critical Review is a warning that Restricted Status is imminent unless corrective action is taken. A facility may be placed on Critical Review whenever, based upon information available to it, the Agency determines that the organic or hydraulic loading of any facility is greater than 80% of the permitted or designed capacity of that facility, as defined in Section 306.402.
