(a) The Director shall forward a copy of the application for a temporary certificate to the Director of the Planning and Development Department, the Chief of the Environmental Quality Division, the Chief of the Solid Waste Division and, for certificates for open burning, to the Chief of the Fire Prevention Division. The Director, the Chief of the Environmental Quality Division, the Chief of the Solid Waste Division, the Director of the Planning and Development Department and, if appropriate, the Chief of the Fire Prevention Division shall review the certificate application within ten working days of receipt and may, within such ten days, through the Director, request submittal of additional information needed for the evaluation of the proposed facility. Each person to whom the application is forwarded shall submit a written or oral report and recommendation of approval or denial of a temporary certificate to the Director within ten working days after receipt of a completed application. The reports may include recommended conditions. (b) The Director may issue the temporary certificate with or without conditions if he finds, based upon the criteria considered that the facility could serve the public convenience and provide a needed service to the citizens of Duval County. Unless otherwise stated, a temporary certificate shall be for a term of no more than 90 days, which term may be extended one time for up to an additional 90 days. An additional extension of 90 days may be granted by the Director upon receipt of a valid contract for the proposed work, and a construction or demolition schedule; provided, however, that no temporary certificate may be granted for longer than the term of the valid contract provided by the applicant. No temporary certificate shall be granted more than once within any 12-month period for any parcel of land. No renewal shall be granted for any person who violates any provision of this Chapter. (c) The temporary certificate is subject to revocation under Section 380.110 . (d) The temporary certificate may be revoked if the Director determines that the application contains any material false information but only after first informing the applicant and giving the applicant an opportunity to respond. (e) The Director shall have the authority to order immediate cessation of any activity allowable in Sections 380.119 through 380.124 in the event any activity becomes a nuisance. Any person affected by the Director's order shall have a right to an immediate hearing before the Director on the existence of the purported nuisance.
