Section 5 CCR 1003-2-100.56 - STATEMENT OF BASIS, SPECIFIC STATUTORY AUTHORITY AND PURPOSE: NOVEMBER 27, 2018 RULEMAKING; EFFECTIVE MARCH 1, 2019

Provisions of section 25-9-104, C.R.S. provide the specific statutory authority for the adoption amendments to the established regulatory provisions of Regulation 100 governing the requirements for water and wastewater facility operators (5 CCR 1003-2). The Board hereby adopts, in compliance with section 24-4-103(4), C.R.S., the following statement of basis and purpose.

BASIS AND PURPOSE

The board held a rulemaking hearing on November 27, 2018 and determined to revise section 100.16.2(b) to establish that the examination fee for both paper and electronic exams will be $100. Fees for paper exams had been $35 less than fees for electronic exams. In this rulemaking the board, in effect, raised the fee for paper exams to ensure a consistent rate for all test-takers. In September 2018, the board adopted revisions requiring all examinations to be administered electronically unless special arrangements were made. To ensure there is no financial incentive for applicants to request paper exams, the board decided to remove the distinction between paper and electronic exams. The board is sensitive to exam cost concerns and will consider adjusting exam costs in the future based on the financial status of the program.
