Important Note: There is no specific template required for the initial notification of compliance. The owner/operator simply needs to provide to their EPA Regional Office the information specified in section 63.11553 of the rule ("What are my notification, reporting, and recordkeeping requirements"). For States where the rule has been delegated (See State Delegations), the initial notification needs to go to the EPA Regional Office and the delegated state or delegated local permitting authority. You may submit the information required in another format. It is highly recommended that you talk with your permitting authority before using any of the example as a potential template.
