NR 800—
DNR # DG-19-09
Repeals and recreates Chapters
NR 809 and
811, and creates Chapter
NR 810, relating to safe drinking water design requirements for community water systems, and requirements for the operation and maintenance of public water supply systems. Effective 12-1-10.
Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
Typically, the Department has little flexibility with drinking water regulations since State rules can be no less stringent than the federal regulation. Flexibility in the rule will be used to reduce monitoring costs and complexity wherever possible. These rules should not have a significant impact on small business since the water systems operated by small businesses such as taverns and restaurants are already subject to the inspection and deficiency correction requirements included in the rule modifications. Therefore, under s.
227.19(3m), Stats., a final regulatory analysis is not required.

Trans 100, relating to safety responsibility, damage judgment, and mandatory insurance laws. Effective 12-1-10.
Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
This regulatory change has no impact on small business.

The new mandatory insurance law itself may require small businesses that lack automobile coverage to obtain insurance or make a filing in lieu of insurance with the Department.
