RULES: Surface Water Monitoring - Interested Party Review

OAC Chapter 3745-81 Surface Water Monitoring


What does 3745-81 cover?

DDAGW has reviewed rule 3745-81-72, 3745-81-73, 3745-81-75, 3745-81-76, 3745-81-77 and 3745-81-79 of the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) to satisfy the five-year rule review requirements of section 106.03 of the Ohio Revised Code. The rule package describes the requirements for Public Water Systems (PWSs) who use surface water as their source in whole or in part.


What step is this in the rulemaking process?

This step in Ohio EPA’s rulemaking process, required by Ohio Revised Code (ORC) 121.39, is called Interested Party Review. During this step, the Agency makes available draft rules for interested parties for review and comment. This step occurs after the Early Stakeholder Outreach comment period.


What changes are being considered?

The Division of Drinking and Ground Waters is seeking input from the regulated community on minor amendments to OAC 3745-81-72, 3745-81-73, 3745-81-75, 3745-81-76, 3745-81-77, 3745-81-79. DDAGW is proposing the following potential changes:

·      Updating rule references

·      Minor grammar, formatting, and spelling corrections

·      Removal of redundant regulatory restrictions


Who will be regulated by these rules?

 All Public Water Systems that are using surface water as their source in whole or in part.
