AB158,1,2 1An Act relating to: repealing rules promulgated by the Department of Natural
2Resources.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law provides for a financial assistance program, administered by the
Department of Natural Resources (DNR), to fund point source pollution abatement
projects. However, no financial assistance is permitted to be provided under this
program after June 30, 1990. Current law also contains a financial assistance
program, administered by DNR, for combined sewer overflow abatement projects.
This program also has not provided financial assistance since 1990. The types of
projects funded under both of these programs are now funded through the clean
water fund program.
In addition, current law establishes a program that provides grants to repair
or replace failing private on-site wastewater treatment systems. This program,
initially administered by DNR, is now administered by the Department of Safety and
Professional Services (DSPS).
DNR has promulgated administrative rules to administer these three financial
assistance programs. This bill eliminates the administrative rules that implement
those programs.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
AB158,1
1Section 1. Chapter NR 128 of the administrative code is repealed.
AB158,2,22 (End)
