The Department of Environmental Quality proposed amendments to La. Admin. Code tit. 43, §§801, 803, 805, 807, 809, 811, 813, 815, 817, 819, 821, 823, 825, 827, and 829. The proposed amendments would condense rules and procedures from several departments and locations to provide a single location for a comprehensive compilation of procedural requirements for permitting, construction, operation, maintenance, plugging, and abandonment of alternative source wells installed for production of subsurface water containing greater than 10,000 mg/l total dissolved solids.
