Availability of Technical Guidance

[26 Pa.B. 4558]

   The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) publishes a list of its technical guidance documents in its Technical Guidance Document Inventory twice a year. The most recent Inventory was published June 1996. This Inventory is also posted on DEP's World Wide Web page. DEP's Web address is http://www.dep.state.us. To go to the location of the Inventory once on the DEP home page, persons should choose the following path:  1) Public Participation Center, 2) Status of Legislation, Regulations and Policies, 3) Recently Finalized Regulations and Policies and 4) Technical Guidance Document Inventory. Persons can order a copy of the latest Inventory or a copy of any of the final documents listed on the Inventory by calling Elwyn Inc. (the printer) at 1 (800) 804-4020 if calling in Pennsylvania or (610) 497-5841 (note this new number) if calling from outside Pennsylvania.

   Once a year on the first Saturday in August, the Governor's Office publishes a list of the non-regulatory guidance documents of all State agencies in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The first publication of this list was in the August 3, 1996 edition of the Bulletin.

   In the interim, DEP announces changes to its technical guidance documents in its weekly newsletter, the UPDATE and the Pennsylvania Bulletin. Here is the current list of recently finalized documents, draft documents and notices of intended changes to technical guidance.

   Persons who have any questions or comments should call Nina Huizinga at (717) 783-8727.
