Sec. 21.13  Effect of certification upon authority to enforce applicable 
standards.

    The certification by EPA or a State for SBA Loan purposes in no way 
constitutes a determination by EPA or the State that the facilities 
certified (a) will be constructed within the time specified by an 
applicable standard or (b) will be constructed and installed in 
accordance with the plans and specifications submitted in the 
application, will be operated and maintained properly, or will be 
applied to process wastes which are the same as described in the 
application. The certification in no way constitutes a waiver by EPA or 
a State of its authority to take appropriate enforcement action against 
the owner or operator of such facilities for violations of an applicable 
standard.
