WITHDRAWAL OF
PREPROPOSAL STATEMENT OF INQUIRY
[Filed December 11, 2013, 10:12 a.m.]
This serves as the notice of withdrawal for the preproposal statement of inquiry published as WSR 13-15-145 on July 23, 2013. The purpose of the rule making was to adopt the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Revised Total Coliform Rule requirements into chapter 246-290 WAC, Group A public water supplies.
During the summer and fall of 2012, the department of health conducted a review of chapter 246-290 WAC, which included stakeholder feedback. After considering the results of the review, the Washington state board of health decided to begin rule-making activities on water system planning and disinfection in addition to the revisions necessary to adopt the federal Revised Total Coliform Rule. To minimize stakeholder confusion, the board will file a new preproposal statement of inquiry to conduct these rule-making activities together.
For more information about this rule making, contact Theresa Phillips at (360) 236-3147.
