Rule R309-540 will be repealed and a substantially reorganized rule with a new title, Facility Design and Operation: Pumping Facilities, will be reenacted in its place. Revisions to the current rule include deleting requirements that are unnecessary or without a logical or practical basis, revising requirements that are unnecessarily specific or overly broad to be useful in the design of pumping facilities, rewording unclear requirements, updating terms, and reorganizing the rule. Most of the current rule requirements are included in the proposed rule but many are reworded and organized differently. The proposed rule to be reenacted in place of the current rule is organized according to the following plan with the following changes: Section R309-540-1 has minor changes to reflect the proposed new title of the rule but is substantially the same as the current rule. Section R309-540-2 is unchanged. Section R309-540-3 is unchanged. Section R309-540-4 is revised and greatly expanded to gather together in one place all requirements that generally apply to pumping facilities (pumps, pump stations, and hydropneumatic systems). Section R309-540-5 is revised to group together all requirements that apply specifically to pumps. Section R309-540-6 has a revised title and includes requirements that apply specifically to water distribution system booster pumps. Section R309-540-7 is revised to include requirements that apply to pump station structures (buildings, wet wells, stairways/ladders, heating/lighting, ventilation, and remote stations). Section R309-540-8 revises and reorganizes requirements that apply to pressure tank systems.
