Common use of Permit Limitations Clause in Contracts

Permit Limitations. Whenever this Agreement requires a Participant to cease issuing Permits, the following rules shall apply: A. The Participant shall not issue any new Permits until authorized to do so by this Arti- cle 7. Where the Participant is not the entity which issues zoning or building permits, the Par- ticipant shall notify the entity which issues such Permits in writing that wastewater conveyance and/or treatment capacity is not available to such Participant and that such entity shall not issue any Permits for construction which would result in increased Flows to the Participant’s Collec- tion System. The Participant shall provide the entity with all information and documentation necessary to enable such entity to lawfully deny Permits for construction which would result in increased Flows to the Participant’s Collection System. B. The Participant shall honor Permits which the Participant or the entity which issues zoning or building permits issued prior to the date such Participant became aware of the Excess Flow provided, however, that if the holder of such Permit does not make the connection or com- plete construction within the time authorized in the Permit, the Participant and the entity which issues zoning or building permits shall not renew or extend the Permit. C. A Participant may issue a Permit if the applicant for such Permit meets the then-cur- rent guidelines for connections when there is a Control Agency connection limitation. The Par- ticipant shall make an initial determination whether such hardship exists. If the Participant de- termines that hardship exists warranting issuance of a Permit, such Participant shall notify the other Participant.
