Background Information
In the field of onsite wastewater management and regulation, it is often necessary to develop new regulations or revise older regulations and guidelines in order to promote the public welfare. This is best accomplished through a cooperative effort amongst stakeholders. Historically, the Division of Environmental Health has brought proposed policies to stakeholder meetings for review, comment and revision. The comment and revision process was repeated several times until consensus was reached. This policy is meant to memorialize and improve the current procedures for gathering input into policy formation at an early stage in the process.
