Draft Part 375 Regulations

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (Department)
plans to issue a draft proposed 6 NYCRR Part 375 by the end of November
for public review and comment. This regulation will incorporate the
Superfund/Brownfield law changes to the Inactive Hazardous Waste
Disposal Site Remedial Program (State Superfund Program or SSF) and the
Environmental Restoration Program (ERP), and provide regulations for the
new Brownfield Cleanup Program (BCP). The Department plans to make the
draft regulation and supporting documentation available on its website
and at document repositories to be identified by the website. This
regulation is expected to be formally proposed in the State Register as
early as November 16, 2005, so please continue to check the Department
website for more information on the start of the comment period and
availability of the regulation and related documents for review. Public
