No. 25876 Notice of Public Hearing on Proposed Amendment of Subdivision, Public Water and Engineering, Water Quality, and Solid Waste Rules Before the Montana Board of Environmental Review and Department of Environmental Quality On January 17, 2018, at 2 p.m., the Board of Environmental Review (board) and the Department of Environmental Quality (department) will hold a public hearing in Room 111 at the Metcalf building, 1520 East Sixth Street, Helena, MT, to consider proposed amendments of ARM 17.30.1001, 17.30.1334, 17.36.103, 17.36.345, 17.38.101, and 17.50.819, adoption of New Rule I, and the amendment of Department Circulars DEQ-1, DEQ-2, DEQ-3 regarding setbacks between water wells and sewage lagoons. The board and department are proposing the referenced rulemaking to address legislative requirements from the 2017 session. Before 2017, Section 75-5-605(1)(c) MCA prohibited any person from siting and constructing a sewage lagoon within 500 feet of an existing water well. In 2017, the Legislature passed House Bill 368, which removed the 500-foot setback and directed the department to adopt rules establishing setback requirements between sewage lagoons and water wells to prevent water well contamination. The department now proposes to adopt New Rule I, which implements HB 368 by establishing setbacks between sewage lagoons and water wells to protect water wells from bacterial and viral pathogens that come from sewage lagoons. The board and department will make reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities who wish to participate in this rulemaking process or need an alternative accessible format of this notice. If you require an accommodation, contact Sandy Scherer, Legal Secretary, no later than 5:00 p.m., January 10, 2019, to advise us of the nature of the accommodation that you need. Please contact Sandy Scherer at the Department of Environmental Quality, P.O. Box 200901, Helena, Montana 59620-0901; phone (406) 444-2630; fax (406) 444-4386; or e-mail sscherer@mt.gov. Concerned persons may submit their data, views, or arguments, either orally or in writing, at the hearing.
