Importance: Normal

 

Hello Andrea-

I am working on compiling this information. I have pulled some files today and it will take a day or so to get all this information all together and back to you. I plan to attach everything and send it at one time, if possible.

LRAPA doesn’t have a ‘Certificate of Notice’ that we do here as a matter of practice but I think it is a good idea to incorporate that in our process as we move forward.

I plan to create one for each of the rulemakings and include the attachments requested. I was not rules coordinator until 2009 and the previous person, Merrie Dinteman, has retired. I will use some language to note this in the Certification since I did not physically mail the information out myself. There was not any emailing for the 2008 rulemakings - it was just a paper mail out.

Some answers are below in red.

Thanks for your comprehensive email. I appreciate your work on this packet and look forward to getting all the information to you as soon as I can. Right now I do not have any questions. Your questions are straightforward but I may run into some questions as I sift through the paper files. Thanks again!

Regards-

Robbye

Hi Robbye,

For the 2008 Industrial Streamlining rulemaking, I have some questions and need a few documents so far. Let’s chat on the phone about any of these that aren’t straightforward. Answers and documents will help us determine if DEQ needs to renotice the rulemaking before proposing it to EQC for adoption.

Part A. Questions

· The attached file “Attachment B5…” - What date, how and who was this notice sent to? This is related to part B below too. I am not sure about attachment B5 – I will look into finding a completed attachment B5.

· The attached file “Industrial…” - It looks like there are multiple notices here. What date, how and who was each part of this notice sent to? This is related to part B below too. I will find any and all notices sent out to interested parties and send them via PDF.

· The attached file “2011-05-04_Letter…” . It mentions:

o Public Notice for Rule workshop November 19, 2008 – I don’t seem to have a copy of this. I will send that.

· The attached file “2011-05-04_LRAPA…” . It mentions:

o the LRAPA advisory committee – Is this the same as the LRAPA Board? No, they are a different group that reports to the Board.

o EPA comments from August 10, 2007 – I can’t find copies of these comments in the files we received from LRAPA. What document are they in? Can you send them? Yes, I will send them.

o Affidavits of publication for the Beacon, Sentinel, and Dead Mountain Echo – I can’t fine copies of these comments in the files we received from LRAPA. I have an affidavit only for the Register Guard. If an ad was published in these three newspapers, please send the affidavits of publication. Yes, I will send them.

Part B. Here’s a list of the documents we need, thus far:

· A statement from LRAPA that documents the outreach performed at the onset of the public comment period. I attached an example statement that DEQ uses called “Certificate of Notice”. The statement would need to include attachments:

o The letter mailed to permit holders, stakeholders and interested parties announcing the proposal Will send

o The mailing address list for the letter Will send

o The email messages sent to permit holders, stakeholders and interested parties announcing the proposal - NA

o The emailing address list for the message - NA

I’ll summarize questions for the other rulemakings in separate emails.

Thanks!

Andrea-

These rules packets were handled over a period that included changing from primarily paper mail-outs to primarily email-outs. We do send notice to our stakeholders which include permit holders. We did at the time of the rulemaking send out notice for each of the rulemaking packets.

I can forward that documentation if that is what you are requesting for each packet.

 

Thanks-

Robbye

Robbye,

Does LRAPA send notice of the rulemakings to stakeholders? To permit holders? By mail? By email? I see a document that is the official Notice for each of the rulemaking comment periods and hearings; however, I don’t see documentation of who LRAPA sent the Notice to.

Good morning, Andrea-

I am just checking in with you regarding the LRAPA rules packets. You mentioned contacting me last week about documents needed for LRAPA rulemaking packets sent to DEQ in May 2011. Please let me know anything that might be missing.

Merlyn Hough (LRAPA Director) met Paul Garrahan (Assistant Attorney-in-Charge – Natural Resource Section) at the recent EQC meeting who stated he is reviewing some LRAPA rulemaking packets.

Thanks and have a great Monday!
