Wastewater Rule Amendments <br /> <br />The Board was presented materials at the November meeting regarding the draft <br />wastewater rule changes. Because the review of the rules by the Animal <br />Control/Environmental Health Committee was not complete at that time, the Board <br />agreed to review the rules draft this month. <br /> <br />The ACEH Committee met on December 2nd and offered a few amendments or edits to <br />the draft. Most of these were minor, but were incorporated into the final draft. Since <br />the Board already received a complete draft of the proposed revisions at the November <br />meeting, the ACEH Committee’s comments were noted on the synopsis of the rule <br />revisions distributed to Board members. <br /> <br />C. Acceptance of Additional State Funds for Family Planning
