Notice of Proposed Readoption without Amendment
County Environmental Health Standards of Administrative Procedure
and Performance

Public Notice
Take notice that the NJ Department of Environmental Protection
(Department) is proposing to readopt N.J.A.C. 7:1H without amendment.
These regulations at N.J.A.C. 7:1H were due to expire on July
12, 2005. The expiration date was extended by 180 days to January
8, 2006 pursuant to N.J.S.A. 52:14B-5.1c, as a result of the
timely filing of a proposal to readopt the rules. The readoption
of N.J.A.C. 7:1H is necessary to ensure continued implementation
of the County Environmental Health Act (CEHA) program. These
rules establish the standards for the administration of environmental
health programs as well as environmental performance standards
for the control of air pollution, solid waste, noise, hazardous
substance control, and water pollution by county health agencies
certified by the Department.

The proposal is scheduled to be published in the New Jersey
Register dated August 1, 2005. A
copy of the proposal can be viewed or downloaded from the Department’s
website (PDF), or obtained
from West Publishing at 1-800-808-WEST. Be advised that there
may be a fee for obtaining a copy of the proposal from some
sources.

Written comments may be submitted by September 30, 2005 to:
