On August 6, 2009, Ohio EPA filed proposed revisions to rules addressing water quality standards for surface waters of the state. This rulemaking addresses: submittal, public notice and public hearing requirements for Section 401 water quality certification projects; recreation use designations; and water quality criteria for bacteria.
Comments must be submitted by 5:00 p.m. on September 10, 2009. For more information go to http://www.epa.state.oh.us/dsw/prop_wqs_aug09.html.
Note: The draft version of this rulemaking, made available for public comment in March 2009, also included revisions to rule 3745-1-31 (Lake Erie standards) that would restrict disposal of dredge material in Lake Erie. The Agency has decided to delay proposal of the rule 3745-1-31 revisions to allow more time to discuss them with stakeholders.
