• For identified settlement and containment structures, requires permittee to indicate whether each structure is in compliance with KDHE Industrial Wastewater Lagoon Requirements (K.A.R. 28-16-160 through 174). For any structure not meeting these requirements, a structure upgrade schedule must be provided to bring the facility into compliance with the regulations.

  (KDHE will not require Ready-mix permittees to complete and submit this form for 2018. The permittee shall begin completing this form for 2019. The form shall be kept on site and be available for KDHE and EOA inspections upon request. Once KDHE has an electronic reporting system in place, the forms will be required to be submitted electronically. KDHE has a timeline to have a new reporting system in place by October 1, 2020 for the submitting of the 2020 forms. KDHE will send a notification to Ready-mix permittees when the electronic report system is completed.)
