(1) Notwithstanding any other requirement established by law, the Department shall also notify the public of its intent to consider adoption of a maximum measurable level for a contaminant or substance of concern by mailing, first class, postage prepaid, a single page notice to those interested parties who have previously filed written requests to the Department that they be placed on the Department's mailing list for groundwater issues. The Department will have complied with section (1) of this rule when it mails the notice to its current interested parties mailing list. It shall be the responsibility of the interested parties to maintain their status on that mailing list.

(2) The notice shall identify the contaminant under consideration and the current federal standard for that contaminant, if any, and shall state the last date by which interested parties may submit to the Department relevant information regarding that contaminant, which date shall not be less than forty-five (45) days after the date of mailing the notice.

(3) The Department may consider submitted information but need not specifically acknowledge, respond to or address this information in development of its initial proposed maximum measurable levels.
