F. Benefits, Costs and Compliance
Executive Order 1996-1 requires a cost/benefit analysis of the proposed amendments.
Benefits
Reporting Requirements
The regulated community will benefit since the amount of information reported and the frequency will lessen--approximately 2,500 facilities completing 185,508 fewer pages of reports per year. The Department will benefit since only information maintained and submitted will be what is needed to administer the waste programs.
Plan Revisions
The counties, municipalities, waste facilities and the general public will benefit since the shorter plan revision process will allow counties to take advantage of competitive pricing in the waste management industry.
Compliance Costs
Reporting Requirements
The number of persons, groups or entities required to comply will not change from those currently regulated. There will be a significant reduction in the efforts required to comply. Because there are a variety of techniques to comply with these reporting requirements (completion by hand, computer, contractor, and the like) it is difficult to estimate costs or savings. The Department has asked for input on this specific question in the Preamble. It is known that the proposal will delete 15 forms formally required of 2,326 facilities.
Plan Revisions
All 67 Pennsylvania counties are required to prepare a county municipal waste management plan. Only those who will be revising their plan to add or delete a waste management facility will need to comply with the regulation. Since plan revisions are initiated by the county, it is not possible to estimate how many will be affected at any given time. Counties will realize a time saving in revising their plans which should translate into a cost savings because of fewer meetings and notices.
Compliance Assistance Plan
Reporting Requirements
Because these revisions do not add any new reporting requirements, no specific hearings or meetings are scheduled. To assist the public in its review of this proposal, the Department has prepared drafts of what the various report forms would look like. These draft forms are available through the contact persons listed in the Preamble, Section B or can be viewed on the Department World Wide Web site (http://www.dep.state.pa.us). To locate, select ''INFORMATION BY ENVIRONMENTAL SUBJECT'' and then select the MUNICIPAL AND RESIDUAL WASTE HOMEPAGE. No financial assistance appears to be needed and none will be offered.
Plan Revisions
The Department intends to conduct at least one Statewide meeting on county municipal waste planning. It will include this revision and others expected within the next year. Plan revision is an eligible expense under the Act 101, Section 901 planning grant program. Counties will be encouraged to consider submission of a grant application to cover plan revision expenses.
Entire Package
The Department intends to provide educational, technical and compliance assistance directly to interested parties through the regional offices, articles in its weekly Update newsletter, distribution of information through trade associations, and electronically by having all the report forms available on the Department's World Wide Web site.
Paperwork Requirements
Reporting Requirements
These proposed amendments eliminate duplicate data submission and reduce unnecessary or duplicative record- keeping requirements for the regulated community while maintaining environmental protection and public access to information. No additional forms or paperwork will be needed.
Plan Revisions
These proposed amendments will allow counties to add or delete a waste management facility to or from their county municipal waste management plan as a non-substantial plan revision. No additional forms or paperwork will be needed.
G. Sunset Review
These regulations will be reviewed in accordance with the sunset review schedule published by the Department to determine whether the regulations effectively fulfill the goals for which they were intended.
H. Regulatory Review
Under section 5(a) of the Regulatory Review Act (71 P. S. § 745.5(a)), on February 4, 1997, the Department submitted a copy of the proposed rulemaking to the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (IRRC) and the Chairpersons of the Senate and House Environmental Resources and Energy Committees. In addition to submitting the proposed amendments, the Department has provided IRRC and the Committees with a copy of a detailed regulatory analysis form prepared by the Department. A copy of this material is available to the public upon request.
If the Commission has objections to any portion of the proposed amendments, it will notify the Department within 30 days of the close of the public comment period. The notification shall specify the regulatory review criteria which have not been met by that portion. The Regulatory Review Act specifies detailed procedures for the Department, the Governor and the General Assembly to review these objections before final publication of the regulations.
I. Public Comments
Written comments. Interested persons are invited to submit comments, suggestions or objections regarding the proposed amendments to the Environmental Quality Board, P. O. Box 8477, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8477 (express mail: Rachel Carson State Office Building, 15th Floor, 400 Market Street, Harrisburg, PA 17101-2301). Comments submitted by facsimile will not be accepted. Comments, suggestions or objections must be received by the Board by April 16, 1997 (within 60 days of publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin). Interested persons may also submit a summary of their comments to the Board. The summary may not exceed one page in length and must also be received by April 16, 1997 (within 60 days following publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin). The one-page summary will be provided to each member of the Board in the agenda packet distributed prior to the meeting at which the final regulations will be considered.
Electronic Comments. Comments may be submitted electronically to the Board at RegComments@A1.dep.state.pa.us. A subject heading of the proposal and a return name and address must be included in each transmission. Comments submitted electronically must also be received by the Board by April 16, 1997.
J. Public Hearing
The Board will hold a public hearing for the purpose of accepting comments on this proposal. The hearing will be held at 1 p.m. on the following date:
April 1, 1997: DEP, 1st Floor Meeting Room, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, Harrisburg, PA.
Persons wishing to present testimony at the hearing are requested to contact Nancy Roush at the Environmental Quality Board, P. O. Box 8477, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8477, (717) 787-4526, at least 1 week in advance of the hearing to reserve a time to present testimony. Oral testimony is limited to 10 minutes for each witness. Witnesses are requested to submit three written copies of their oral testimony to the hearing chairperson at the hearing. Organizations are limited to designating one witness to present testimony on their behalf at each hearing.
Persons in need of accommodations as provided for in the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 should contact Nancy Roush directly at (717) 787-4526 or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.
JAMES M. SEIF,
Chairperson(Editor's Note: Sections 272.252 and 287.51 were amended at 27 Pa.B. 521 (January 25, 1997). These amendments will be codified in the April 1997 Pennsylvania Code Reporter (MTS 269).)
Fiscal Note: 7-304. No fiscal impact; (8) recommends adoption. These proposed amendments may result in minor cost savings to the Department. Cost savings may be realized from a reduction in administrative workload associated with the handling, storage and tracking of documents.
