Acceptance of Rulemaking Petition for Study
[26 Pa.B. 2257] At the April 16, 1996, meeting of the Environmental Quality Board (EQB), the EQB accepted a rulemaking petition for further study under 25 Pa. Code Chapter 23 (relating to Environmental Quality Board policy for processing petitions).
The petition was submitted by Waste Management Inc., East and requests an amendment or repeal of a section of the municipal waste regulations (25 Pa. Code § 279.202(a)(5)). The second requires a 50-foot property line setback, and the petitioner is seeking more flexibility in selecting sites for transfer facilities.
The Department is currently reviewing the petition and will forward its report evaluating it to the EQB. If the Department proposes changes to the existing regulation and the EQB concurs, the proposed changes will be processed as a proposed rulemaking with an opportunity for public comment.
Copies of the petition are available from the Environmental Quality Board, P. O. Box 8477, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8477, phone (717) 787-4526.
