This is the permit that CDM Smith was hired to get
Post# of 4018
You need to obtain an Aquifer Protection Permit, or APP if you own or operate a facility that discharges a pollutant either directly to an aquifer, to the land surface or the vadose zone (the area between an aquifer and the land surface) in such a manner that there is a reasonable probability that the pollutant will reach an aquifer.

I suggest someone call them and ask for the status of the permit and get the APP number if it has been approved.
