DEP rule relating to requirements governing water quality standards

SB 264 authorizes West Virginia's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to implement a revised rule for water quality standards under the Division of Water and Waste Management. The bill specifically approves a rule (47 CSR 02) that was modified after addressing objections from the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee. This rule governs requirements for water quality standards, directly affecting entities regulated under DEP's water quality programs. The bill does not change the rule's content but formally authorizes the DEP to enforce it as revised.
