Extensions: Managing Permit Extensions
- Kevin Lemmer
A permit that expires is no longer valid and cannot be transitioned back to Active. Any project with an expired permit that was not constructed, and the supply wishes to pursue must have a Construction Permit Activity resubmitted and approved prior to construction. If the District Engineer (DE) is made aware that this is a resubmitted project, it is recommended to link the new permit activity (child) to the original permit activity (parent) and include a note on the original permit for internal documentation purposes.
Prior to the permit expiration date, and once an extension is requested in MiEHDWIS and properly transitioned, the permit will not automatically expire and can be reviewed and accepted by the DE. [This currently occurs when the External User transitions by clicking the Request Extension button rather than after the Submit to EGLE button. Bug logged.] If technical concerns arise, it is recommended to consult a Professional Engineer (PE) or the original permit Issuer, if available, prior to accepting the request.
Important: Extension requests submitted outside of MiEHDWIS must be transitioned manually by the DE as soon as possible to avoid the Activity being transitioned automatically to Closed/Expired.
Extension requests for permits with Certifiers must be made through MiEHDWIS by the Certifier.
