Standardized Permit Guidance

The Standardized Permit tier provides authorization for most treatment and storage activities that require a permit in California, but that do not require a permit under the Resource Conservation Recovery Act. A facility with a Standardized Permit must comply with most of the operational requirements applicable to a full-permit facility, but the permit application process has been simplified and annual facility fees are lower than for a full permit.
