Protection and Disclosure of Records in the Possession of DEQ: 58-0121-2101

Rulemaking initiated in compliance with Executive Order No. 2020-01, Zero-Based Regulation (EO 2020-01), issued by Governor Little on January 16, 2020.

Status of Rulemaking

All IDAPA 58 temporary fee rule chapters, including the revisions negotiated under Docket Nos. 58-0123-2101 and 58-0121-2101, will be published as proposed rules in rule chapter IDAPA 58.01.23 in Omnibus Rulemaking Docket No. 58-0000-2100F in the October 20, 2021 Idaho Administrative Bulletin; comment deadline November 10, 2021.

Overview

DEQ initiated this rulemaking in compliance with Executive Order No. 2020-01, Zero-Based Regulation (EO 2020-01), issued by Governor Little on January 16, 2020.  Pursuant to EO 2020-01, each rule chapter effective on June 30, 2020, shall be reviewed by the agency that promulgated the rule.  Review of IDAPA 58.01.21, Rules Governing the Protection and Disclosure of Records in the Possession of the Department of Environmental Quality, will be conducted in conjunction with review of IDAPA 58.01.23, Rules of Administrative Procedure Before the Board of Environmental Quality (Docket No. 58-0123-2101), which is one of the DEQ rule chapters up for review in 2021. During review of IDAPA 58.01.23, Rules of Administrative Procedure Before the Board of Environmental Quality, DEQ determined that all but a couple of sections of IDAPA 58.01.21, Rules Governing the Protection and Disclosure of Records in the Possession of the Department of Environmental Quality, could be repealed as the procedures are located in Idaho Code § 74-114. As a result of negotiated rulemaking, the remaining sections of IDAPA 58.01.21 (016.02 and 017) were moved into IDAPA 58.01.23, and the chapter was renamed “Contested Case Rules and Rules for Protection and Disclosure of Records.”

The goal of the rulemaking is to perform a critical and comprehensive review of the entire chapter in an attempt to reduce overall regulatory burden, streamline various provisions, and increase clarity and ease of use.
