Minnesota SF570 modifies environmental and resource management permit processes, efficiency reporting, and Pollution Control Agency permitting.

The bill also mandates annual semiannual permitting efficiency reports, assesses whether program changes are necessary, and requires the commissioner to notify permit applicants of the completeness or deficiencies of their applications.
