Reporting, Bookkeeping and other Procedures
Like the current rule, the proposed rule continues to require certain types of reporting and record keeping that are associated with the testing of these tanks and tank systems. Form identification numbers will continue to be listed in the rules and the Notes section will explain how to obtain forms.
As previously mentioned, many small businesses or business organizations will decide to purchase some of the standards-related publications that are indicated in the tables in Section 200.
Professional Skills Required
As this makes minor changes, businesses should not need additional professional skills.
Accommodation for Small Business
Many of the businesses affected by this rule are “small businesses.” DATCP expects to receive ongoing inquiries concerning the interpretation and enforcement of the rule and will devote resources to fielding those inquiries. Reference copies of all standards are available for inspection at the Legislative Reference Bureau and at DATCP.
Conclusion
This proposed rule will likely benefit businesses, including small businesses. Negative impacts, if any, will be few and limited. Accordingly, the proposed rule is not subject to the delayed small business effective date provided in Wis. Stat. § 227.22 (2) (e). Dated this 17th day of January, 2024.
