NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION
Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:
Title 19, Chapter 6, Part 9, the Illegal Drug Operations Site Reporting and Decontamination Act, was enacted May 2004. The statute requires the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), Solid and Hazardous Waste Control Board to establish within the DEQ/Division of Environmental Response and Remediation (DERR): a) certification standards for any private person, firm, or entity involved in the decontamination of contaminated property; and b) a process for revoking the certification of a decontamination specialist who fails to maintain the certification standards.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
No comments have been received regarding Rule R311-500 since the last five-year review of the rule conducted in 2010.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
Rule R311-500 should continue since Title 19, Chapter 6, Part 9, requires the DEQ/DERR to develop and maintain a certification program for decontamination specialists. The statute also provides a mechanism for certified decontamination specialists to help remove property from the contamination list.
