The Tennessee Information Sheet as to Cost Bill is a document required by the Tennessee Department of Health and Environment when applying for a new or modified wastewater discharge permit. It provides detailed information regarding the estimated costs of constructing and operating a wastewater treatment plant. The information sheet includes the expected cost of the wastewater treatment plant, the estimated operational costs over the life of the permit, and the projected environmental costs associated with the wastewater discharge. The information sheet must be filed with the Tennessee Department of Health and Environment before a wastewater discharge permit can be issued. The Tennessee Information Sheet as to Cost Bill can be broken down into two different types: the Construction Cost Information Sheet and the Operation Cost Information Sheet. The Construction Cost Information Sheet includes the estimated costs for constructing the wastewater treatment plant, including the cost of materials, labor, and equipment. The Operation Cost Information Sheet includes the estimated operational costs for the life of the permit, including the cost of electricity, chemicals, and testing. The estimated environmental costs associated with the wastewater discharge are also included in the Operation Cost Information Sheet.
