A. Upon filing a Tier II or III application with the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry, the applicant shall publish notice of the filing as legal notice in one newspaper of general circulation local to the proposed new site or existing facility. The publication shall identify public locations where the application may be reviewed, including a public location in the county where the proposed new site or existing facility is located.
B. For Tier III applications, the publication shall also include notice of a thirty-day opportunity to request, or give the date, time and place for, a process meeting on the permitting process. If the Department receives a timely request and determines that a significant degree of public interest in the application exists pursuant to rules of the Department, it shall schedule and hold the meeting. The applicant shall be entitled to attend the meeting and may make a brief presentation on the permit request. Any local community meeting regarding the proposed facility or activity for which a permit is sought that is scheduled and held by the applicant may be combined, with the agreement of the Department and the applicant, with the process meeting authorized by this paragraph.
C. The provisions of this section shall not stay the review of the application by the Department.
