NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Title 19, Chapter 4, Safe Drinking Water Act, gives the Drinking Water Board the authority to promulgate rules that govern the construction of facilities and quality of water provided by public water systems.

 

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No written comments have been received by the Division on this rule.

 

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

This rule defines the requirements for plan approval of public water system (PWS) construction projects. In addition, this rule outlines routine operation and maintenance that must be carried out in order to protect the quality of the water. The rule also outlines the requirements for disinfection, cross connection control, certified operators and acceptable products to add to the water or to come in contact with the water. The continuation of this rule is necessary to protect the quality and safety of the drinking water served the public by PWSs and thereby public health.
