The Environmental Protection Agency proposed to amend Ohio Admin. Code §119.03, governing well standards, operational requirements, plan approval, and backflow and cross-connection control for public water systems. Changes would clarify monitoring requirements, require reports to be submitted electronically, and provide additional flexibility in approving existing wells, in addition to other changes. There will be a public hearing October 31, 2011. See http://www.registerofohio.state.oh.us/pdfs/phn/3745_NO_146821_20110928_0846.pdf.
