The bill provides
that the emergency rule and the non-emergency rule following adoption of an
emergency rule allowing above-ground oil storage tanks to be located in
significant sand and gravel aquifers are routine technical rules rather than
major substantive rules, and that subsequent amendments to the rule are major
substantive rules. The use of the routine rulemaking processes in these
instances will reduce the costs of rulemaking to the Department of
Environmental Protection. Any additional costs to adopt these rules related
to above-ground oil storage tanks can be absorbed by the Department of
Environmental Protection within existing budgeted resources. |
