The redesignation from subtitle Env-Ws to subtitle Env-Dw for the rules above was done pursuant to a rules reorganization plan for Department rules approved by the Director of the Office of Legislative Services on 9-7-05.

The former Env-Ws 304.01, and former Parts Env-Ws 341, 343, 345, 346, and 347, had last been filed under Document #8498 or #8497, effective 11-30-05, as noted below.

Revision Note #6:

Document #10618, effective 6-1-14, readopted with amendments and renumbered former Part Env-Ws 308, entitled "Criteria and Procedures for Non-Central Treatment", under a new subtitle as Part Env-Dw 723, entitled "Non-Central Treatment". The redesignation from subtitle Env-Ws to subtitle Env-Dw was done pursuant to a rules reorganization plan for Department rules approved by the Director of the Office of Legislative Services on 9-7-05.

The former Part Env-Ws 308 had last been filed under Document #8498, effective 11-30-05. The rules in the former Part Env-Ws 308 did not expire on 11-30-13 but were extended pursuant to RSA 541-A:14-a until replaced by the rules in Document #10618, effective 6-1-14.

REVISION NOTE #7:

Document #12668, effective 1-1-19, effectively readopted with amendments Part Env-Dw 710, Part Env-Dw 711, Part Env-Dw 712, and Part Env-Dw 713. Document #12668 replaces all prior filings for the former rules affecting these Parts.

Document #12668 deleted the existing rule Env-Dw 711.29 titled "Reporting and Compliance for Nitrite" by not readopting it, as the subject matter is addressed in paragraph (b) in Env-Dw 711.24 titled "Monitoring and Reporting for Nitrite."

Document #12668 also adopted a new rule Env-Dw 712.01 titled "Definitions", which necessitated the renumbering of the existing rules in Part Env-Dw 712. The source notes for the rules in Part Env-Dw 712 after Env-Dw 712.01 indicate the former rule number. Document #12668 also readopted with amendments and renumbered Env-Dw 712.19 titled "VOC and SOC Chemical Monitoring Waivers" as 3 rules-Env-Dw 712.20 titled "VOC Contaminants Monitoring Waivers", Env-Dw 712.21 titled "SOC Contaminants Monitoring Waivers", and Env-Dw 712.22 titled "VOC and SOC Contaminants Monitoring Waivers; Duration, Conditions, Renewal, Revocation." The source notes for Env-Dw 712.20, Env-Dw 712.21, and Env-Dw 712.22 therefore contain filing history information for the former Env-Dw 712.19.

Most of the existing rules in Part Env-Dw 710, Part Env-Dw 711, Part Env-Dw 712, and Part Env-Dw 713 had last been filed under Document #9700, effective 5-1-10. The former rules did not expire on 5-1-18 but were extended pursuant to RSA 541-A:14-a until replaced by the rules in Document #12668, effective 1-1-19.
