Proposed Effective Date: July 1, 2019
Instructions on How to Demand a Public Hearing:
(must be requested in writing within 15 days of notice):  If a public hearing is requested, contact Michael Rogers, UIC Program Manager, Division of Water Resources, Animal Feeding Operations and Groundwater Protection Branch at Michael.Rogers@ncdenr.gov
Reason for Proposed Action: 
The repeal of 15A NCAC 02T .1600 is proposed because 15A NCAC 02C .0225 rule, which had already been approved by the Environmental Management Commission to go to public hearing, would encompass the requirements for both the 15A NCAC 02C .0225 rule and the 15A NCAC 02T .1600 rules.
