Corrective Amendment to 25 Pa. Code § 109.301 (2)(i)(A)
[33 Pa.B. 5916] The Department of Environmental Protection has discovered a discrepancy between the agency text of 25 Pa. Code § 109.301(2)(i)(A) (relating to general monitoring requirements) as deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau and the text published at 32 Pa.B. 3894, 3902 (August 10, 2002) and the text published in the Pennsylvania Code Reporter (Master Transmittal Sheet No. 335). The heading for the table in clause (A) was inadvertently changed on final publication of the amendment in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The correct heading should be Samples/Week.
Therefore, under 45 Pa.C.S. § 901: The Department of Environmental Protection has deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau a corrective amendment to 25 Pa. Code § 109.301(2)(i)(A). The corrective amendment to 25 Pa. Code § 109.301(2)(i)(A) is effective as of August 10, 2002, the date the defective text was printed in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
The correct version of 25 Pa. Code § 109.301(2)(i)(A) appears in Annex A, with ellipses referring to the existing text of the regulation.
