Such notice shall be given on or before ninety days prior to the date on which the application for renewal of such permit is due. Nothing in this section shall affect the obligation of any person to apply for a permit in a timely fashion or to comply with any permit issued by the commissioner. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (b) of section 4-182, the Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection may accept, prior to the expiration of a permit or other license, a sufficient but untimely application for renewal of such permit or other license and authorize the existing permit or other license to continue in effect beyond its expiration date until the commissioner disposes of such renewal application provided, in the commissioner’s judgment, (1) the renewal application is likely to be granted, and (2) the public interest would best be served by allowing the licensed activity to continue uninterrupted. Any authorization for the continuance of an existing license pursuant to this subsection shall be limited by any conditions the commissioner deems necessary to assure protection of health, safety and the environment. The commissioner may require any person requesting a continuance pursuant to this section to provide such information as the commissioner deems necessary to carry out the purposes of this section.
