Georgia EPD reissued three construction stormwater general permits (GAR100001, GAR100002, GAR100003) on June 20, 2023, with an August 1, 2023 effective date. A petition filed in July 2023 appealing the 2023 permits has automatically stayed them under state law O.C.G.A. § 12-2-2(c)(2)(B). As a result, the 2018 versions of these permits remain in force until the appeal is resolved.
