62-550.400: General Requirements for Unregulated Contaminants
62-550.590: Public Water System Monitoring Information and Monitoring Schedule
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose and effect of the proposed rule amendment will be to repeal rules identified during the comprehensive rule review required by Executive Order 11-01 as duplicative, unnecessarily burdensome, or no longer necessary.
SUMMARY: Rule 62-550.400 relates to community and non-transient, non-community public water systems and the requirement that monitoring be conducted for unregulated contaminants. The US EPA administers the rules related to unregulated contaminants, and directs systems on when and how to sample for these constituents; therefore, this rule is unnecessary. Rule 62-550.590 notes that monitoring information and schedules for monitoring are included in Tables 7 and 8 within the Chapter. These tables are referenced elsewhere in the Chapter; therefore, this rule contains information that is duplicative and unnecessary. No other rules incorporate these rules, and these rules do not have an effect on other rules.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:
The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the agency.
The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: The repeal of these rules are a result of the Department’s review pursuant to EO 11-01 and will not have an adverse impact or impose a regulatory cost.
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
