Committee quickly advances multiple DES conforming regulatory updates
Summary
The Regulations and Administrative Procedures Committee moved a string of documents that update agency names and make conforming changes for DES (on-site wastewater, air pollution control, navigable waters, land and water management, water bureau, dams safety and related items); motions to forward each item to the full committee were approved by voice vote.
Alan Powell presented a series of documents updating agency names to the Department of Environmental Services (DES) and making conforming changes across multiple regulatory areas.
Items advanced included Document 53 24 (on-site wastewater systems), Document 53 25 (Air Pollution Control Regulations), Document 53 26 (permits for construction in navigable waters), Document 53 28 (Bureau of Land and Water Management), Document 53 33 (Bureau of Water), Document 53 37 (dams and reservoir safety), and Document 53 43 (additional conforming update). Committee members characterized the packages as non-substantive name or numbering updates; Representative Bill Taylor said there were "no substantive changes whatsoever." Each item was moved, seconded, and approved by voice vote to be sent to the full committee with a recommendation to approve.
Votes at a glance: Document 53 24 (forwarded), Document 53 25 (forwarded), Document 53 26 (forwarded), Document 53 28 (forwarded), Document 53 33 (forwarded), Document 53 37 (forwarded), Document 53 43 (forwarded). The committee did not record roll-call tallies in the transcript; actions were approved by voice vote.
Why it matters: These procedural updates ensure regulatory citations and agency references align with the reorganized agency names; regulated parties should watch for the formal filings and final actions at the full committee stage.
