(a) We grant a waiver or variance for a specific amount
of time. The waiver or variance will include its expiration date.
(b) We may issue a waiver or variance for up to three
years. If you need a waiver or variance for a time period that exceeds
three years, you will have to submit a new request as explained in
subsection (c) of this section.
(c) If you will still need a waiver or variance after
the waiver or variance expires, you must submit a new request to us
according to §745.8305 of this subchapter (relating to How do
I request a waiver or variance?):
(1) At least 35 days prior to the expiration; or
(2) As soon as possible, if the expiration date of
the waiver or variance is less than 35 days from the date we granted
it.
(d) When your waiver or variance expires, you must
comply with the minimum standard, even if a new request related to
that standard is pending our review.
