WATER POLLUTION CONTROL DIRECTIVE ASMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES DECLARATION Objective Official Gazette: Dated 12.3.1989 and No. 20106 Legal Basis: Environment Law No. 2872 and water pollution control directive prepared compatible with the clauses of law which makes additions and changes in the mentioned law Article 1- This declaration is prepared in order to arrange responsibility, permit conditions and relevant administrative elements and applications foreseen in the Environment Law dated 9 August 1983 and no 2872 and Water Pollution Control Directive which is prepared in compatible with the law clauses which have annexes and changes in the mentioned law. Permit Application and Permitting for Direct Wastewater Discharge to Receiving Environments Article 2- Wastewater infrastructure managements and institutions, establishments and enterprises where no sewage system is present and where it is certain that sewage system will not be constructed are permitted within the conditions set by part six of Water Pollution Control Directive. Permit application is done submitting the filled form given in Annex I* to the administration and adding it to a brief. Information regarding the removal and disposal of wastewater sludge to be formed as a result of the wastewater treatment. In case the administration permits the wastewater discharge into the receiving environment, administration prepares the document whose sample is illustrated in Annex II and gives to the applicant. Permit Application and Permitting for Wastewater Discharge through Deep Sea Discharge Article 3- For a deep sea discharge compatible with the maximum wastewater quality standards foreseen in Table 22 according to the 40 th and the 42 nd articles of Water Pollution Control Directive and compatible with the criteria illustrated in Table 23, the application form whose sample is given in Annex III along with a brief is submitted to the administration.
