If an application for extension of trial operation period is filed 15 days before expiry and if the approval or denial of the extension cannot be granted before the expiry of the trial operation period due to the reviewing agency’s review, the public or private premises may continue trial operation in accordance with the trial operation plan during the period after the expiry of the trial operation period until the time when the extension is approved or denied. If the application for extension is not filed 15 days before the expiry of the trial operation period, the public or private premises shall stop trial operation if the reviewing agency does not grant an approval or denial on the extension upon expiry of the trial operation period.
If the public or private premises need to revise the trial operation plan during the trial operation period, the amended trial operation plan shall be submitted with the certification by an environmental engineering technician or other relevant professional technician. Following approval by the reviewing agency, trial operation shall be carried out in accordance with the approved contents. Before approval by the reviewing agency, trial operation shall continue based on the contents of the original trial operation plan.

The following items shall be recorded for the operating permit:
I.The validity period and certificate number of the operating permit.
II.Basic Information:
(I)The name and address of the public of private premises.
(II)The name, identification document number and address of the statutory responsible person of the public or private premises.
