This amendment to 6 CCR 1007-3, Part 100 is made pursuant to the authority granted to the Solid and Hazardous Waste Commission in § 25-15-302(2), C.R.S.
Proposed Amendment of § 100.506(c) Hazardous Waste Public Notice Requirements
These regulatory changes expand and modernize the methods by which the Department must notify the public about certain hazardous waste permitting activities. These proposed regulatory amendments to the public notice requirements of 6 CCR 1007-3, Section 100.506(c) add the requirement for public notices of permit actions to be published to the Department's and Division's website and Facebook page.
The Division is proposing to add this requirement for public notices to be published to the Department's and Division's website and Facebook page because these forums are increasingly utilized by the public as their information source of choice. In fact, the Division is already announcing all public notice opportunities to these sites. However, we feel it is important to formalize these requirements because it clarifies for the public, in our regulations, that they can expect these sites to carry this type of information.
