1999 Sunset Review Schedule

[29 Pa.B. 240]

   This schedule includes the Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) regulations, by chapter, which will undergo a sunset review in 1999. The sunset schedule is published annually and includes the Pennsyl-

vania Code chapters which will be reviewed by the Department. Each regulation will be reviewed to determine whether it effectively fulfills the goals for which it was intended and remains consistent with the following principles contained in Executive Order 1996-1 (regarding Regulatory Review and Promulgation):

   1.  Regulations shall address a compelling public interest.

   2.  Costs of regulations shall not outweigh their benefits.

   3.  Regulations shall be written in clear, concise and, when possible, nontechnical language.

   4.  Regulations shall address definable public health, safety or environmental risks.

   5.  Where Federal regulations exist, Pennsylvania's regulations shall not exceed Federal standards unless justified by a compelling and articulable Pennsylvania interest or required by State law.

   6.  Compliance shall be the goal of all regulations.

   7.  Where viable nonregulatory alternatives exist, they shall be preferred over regulations.

   8.  Regulations shall be drafted and promulgated with early and meaningful input from the regulated community.

   9.  Regulations shall not hamper Pennsylvania's ability to compete effectively with other states.

   10.  All agency heads shall be held directly accountable for regulations promulgated by their respective agencies.

   The chapters listed will be reviewed by the Department in 1999. If regulatory amendments are proposed, those amendments will be reviewed by the appropriate advisory committees, as outlined in the Department's Regulatory Agenda which is published semiannually in February and July.

   Both the Sunset Review Schedule and the Regulatory Agenda are available on the Department's World Wide Web site at http://www.dep.state.pa.us (choose Public Participation Center).
