RULES AND REGULATIONS

Title 25--ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

[25 PA. CODE CH. 86]

Corrective Amendment to 25 Pa. Code § 86.174(a)

[34 Pa.B. 388]

   The Department of Environmental Protection has discovered a discrepancy between the agency text of 25 Pa. Code § 86.174(a) (relating to standards for release of bonds) as deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau and the official text as published at 28 Pa.B. 2227 (May 9, 1998) and as published in the Pennsylvania Code Reporter (Master Transmittal Sheet No. 284) (July 1998), and as currently appearing in the Pennsylvania Code. In the first sentence of subsection (a), the words ''backfilled and regraded'' were inadvertently replaced with ''backfilled or regraded.''

   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 § 86.174(a). The corrective amendment to 25 Pa. Code § 86.174(a) is effective as of May 9, 1998, the date the defective text was printed in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   The correct version of 25 Pa. Code § 86.174(a) appears in Annex A, with ellipses referring to the existing text of the regulation.
