(A) The Floodplain Administrator shall review and evaluate the floodplain permit application and shall approve, approve with conditions or deny the application within 180 days of receipt of a correct and complete application.
(M.C.A. § 76-5-405(2))
(B) The Floodplain Administrator shall determine whether the floodplain permit application contains the applicable elements required in these regulations and shall notify the applicant of the Floodplain Administrator’s determination.
(C) If the floodplain permit application is found to be missing the required elements and if the applicant corrects the identified deficiencies and resubmits the floodplain application, the Floodplain Administrator shall notify the applicant whether the resubmitted floodplain application contains all the elements required by these regulations, as applicable.
(D) This process shall be repeated until the applicant submits a completed floodplain permit application containing all the elements required by these regulations or the application is withdrawn.
(E) If, after a reasonable effort, the Floodplain Administrator determines that the floodplain application remains incomplete, the Floodplain Administrator shall deny the floodplain permit application and notify the applicant of missing elements. No further action shall be taken on the floodplain permit application by the Floodplain Administrator until the floodplain permit application is resubmitted.
(F) A determination that a floodplain permit application is correct and complete for review does not ensure that the floodplain permit application will be approved or conditionally approved and does not limit the ability of the Floodplain Administrator to request additional information during the review process.
