Surface Water Rules - Early Stakeholder Outreach 

The first step in the rule-making process is for Ohio EPA to identify that a rule needs to be amended, rescinded or created.  In response to Executive Order 2011-01K, Ohio EPA has added an additional step to ensure stakeholders are brought into the rule process as early as possible.  This additional interested party notification and request for information will allow for early feedback before the rule language has been developed by the Agency. 

Please see below for a listing of rules the Division of Surface Water (DSW) is reviewing, a fact sheet requesting stakeholder input and the comment deadline.  For rules that are further along in the rule-making process, see the draft and proposed rules web page here. 

 The following Division of Surface Water rules are under review.
