The Environmental Quality Council will hold a public hearing to consider proposed revisions to Chapter 17 of the Wyoming Water Quality Rules and Regulations. The amended Chapter 17 will replace UST rules contained in the current Chapter 17 regulations. This is a created rule written in response to the federal Underground Storage Tank Compliance Act of 2005. The rule requires the licensing of operators of storage tanks, cathodic protection testers and corrosion experts, tank and line testers, and tank installers and decommissioning firms. This rule also sets up a procedure to prohibit deliveries of regulated substances to facilities that are in noncompliance with key provisions of Chapter 17. The hearing will be held March 18, 2008. http://deq.state.wy.us/shwd/stp/STPDownloads/Chapter17new/17_Final_Public_Notice_1-3-08.pdf.
