CR 07-025
An order affecting ch. NR 809, relating to IESWTR, LT1, DDBP, PN, CCR, radionuclide, and total coliform rules and updating of analytical methods for public water systems. Effective 2-1-08.
Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
The majority of these rule changes are clarification of federal requirements that are already in existence. The rule changes for surface water and GWUDI systems will not impact small business, since no small systems will be regulated under them. The addition of USEPA approved analytical methods may provide laboratories with additional flexibility in analyzing public drinking water samples.
The effects of these rule changes are to provide additional flexibility to laboratories that perform analyses for public water systems. Since there are no small surface water systems or GWUDI in Wisconsin, the LT1 rule is not necessary to provide monitoring relief for small water systems.

CR 07-034
An order affecting ch. NR 140, relating to groundwater quality standards. Effective 2-1-08.
Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
The Department has determined that this rule order will not have a significant economic impact on small businesses. Chapter NR 140 currently contains groundwater standards for 122 substances of public health concern, 8 substances of public welfare concern and 15 indicator parameters. The proposed groundwater standard revisions would apply to all regulated facilities, practices and activities which may impact groundwater quality.
Because few water supply wells have tested above proposed alachlor-ESA groundwater standards, and as use of alachlor has decreased in Wisconsin to relatively low levels, and because available alachlor herbicide products are priced comparably to other corn herbicide products, the Department has determined that any management practice restrictions that might be placed on alachlor to prevent exceedances of state groundwater quality standards for alachlor-ESA, are unlikely to have a significant economic impact on Wisconsin corn growers.
