Summary

The gist of this rule and the underlying reason for the rulemaking is to (1) correct grammatical errors; (2) clarify that operator experience means licensed experience; (3) allow approval of virtual classes that are less than 4 hours; (4) require attendance records to be submitted in a DEQ-approved format; (5) cite military exception statute for renewals; (6) rename registered helper to non-certified helper; (7) change CPI from every five years to annually; (8) allow DEQ to determine if a non-community and minor systems need an operator; (9) clarify approved equivalents; and, (10) fix footnotes in Appendices A & B.
