The gist of this rule and the underlying reason for the rulemaking is to update the date of incorporation by reference for the Code of Federal Regulations from July 8, 2024, to January 17, 2025. DEQ will also be proposing updating the section on fees. Currently, Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustments are made on July 1st every year for individual discharge permit fees and individual permit fees for industrial users. The proposed update is to apply the CPI to stormwater and other general discharge permit fees. DEQ will be proposing adding and modifying definitions to Subchapter 1. INTRODUCTION, as well as adding language to SUBCHAPTER 6. POINT SOURCE DISCHARGES for determination of reasonable potential for selenium and changing language to disallow monitoring frequency reductions for a parameter when the receiving water is impaired for that parameter. An equation is proposed to be added to Appendix L.
