Introduced

SB 225 - Currently, when certain permits or licenses are issued, renewed, denied, suspended, or revoked by the Department of Natural Resources, the decision is often appealable to the commission with appropriate jurisdiction within the Department, including the Hazardous Waste Management Commission, the Safe Drinking Water Commission, the Air Conservation Commission, the Clean Water Commission, and the Missouri Mining Commission. Under this act, when certain permits or licenses are issued, renewed, denied, suspended, or revoked by the Department, any aggrieved party may appeal such decision by filing a petition with the Administrative Hearing Commission within 30 days. The Administrative Hearing Commission may consider certain factors regarding the permit decision as set forth in this act. Under this act, the Administrative Hearing Commission would then make a recommendation to the commission with appropriate jurisdiction within the Department regarding the permit or license. The commission with appropriate jurisdiction shall then issue the final decision, and such decision shall be subject to judicial review except the Administrative Hearing Commission shall issue the final decision for all permits relating to solid waste.
