In addition, permittees that have previously filed an NOI in a timely manner to administratively extend the Baseline Construction General Permit must complete and submit the new NOI form by May 18, 1998. The reissued Construction General Permit authorizes the discharge of storm water associated with construction activity disturbing five or more acres and smaller sources that are designated by the Agency on a case-by-case basis. Separate construction general permits for EPA NPDES-regulated areas in Regions 4 and 6 are under development and will be available in the near future; EPA Region 5 has not developed a construction general permit. Issuance of these new construction general permits will not affect areas where a State agency is the NPDES permitting authority.
