The Arkansas Department of Energy & Environment – Division of Environmental Quality (“DEQ”) issued a November 10th news release announcing the scheduling of a stakeholder meeting to discuss the preliminary draft general permit for yard waste composting (Type CY).
DEQ states the current general permit will expire and, therefore, a new general permit is being prepared.
The meeting is scheduled to be held in DEQ’s Commission Room at its North Little Rock Headquarters for 1:00 p.m. on December 12th.
The news release states meeting activities will include:
- Review of the preliminary draft general permit
- Ability to discuss the draft general permit with DEQ Office of Land Resources Solid Waste Management section personnel
Note that the stakeholder meeting is not considered a formal hearing. A formal comment period will be scheduled once the general permit is formally proposed.
