[Individual Industrial NPDES Permits]  [Individual Industrial WPCF Permits]  [General Industrial NPDES Permits]  [General Industrial WPCF Permits]

Fees for new applications are composed of two parts: an application fee and an annual fee, unless otherwise noted. Fees must be submitted at the time of application. No fees are required at the time of application renewal.

A Land Use Compatibility Statement (LUCS) signed by the local land use authority must also be submitted with a new application, unless otherwise noted. For renewal applications, submittal of a LUCS is only required if major changes have been made at the facility or if there is no LUCS on file with DEQ.

IMPORTANT: Permit copies available for download below are for reference purposes only.  An application must be submitted to the Oregon DEQ for coverage under general National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) discharge permits or under general Water Pollution Control Facilities (WPCF) permits.  Applicants receive a signed copy of the permit when coverage is issued.
