The Water Resources Board will hold a public hearing on proposed amendments to Okla. Admin. Code §785:5-1-6, Stream water permit application and administration fees; Okla. Admin. Code §785:5-1-9, Dam safety and inspection fees; Okla. Admin. Code §785:5-1-10, Groundwater application and administration fees; Okla. Admin. Code §785:5-1-11, Well driller and pump installer licensing fees; and Okla. Admin. Code §785:5-1-14, Stream water and groundwater petition fees. The amendments would increase the existing amounts for each category of fee by $5.00, eliminate the additional late fee for filing annual water use reports, and provide that failure to file the annual water use report by the date specified in the report form may be considered a failure to comply with terms of a permit to trigger an administrative proceeding to cancel the permit. The hearing will be January 12, 2010. http://www.oar.state.ok.us/register/Volume-27_Issue-05.htm#a16906.
