SIP Revision Submittal July 9 2007 

One of the requirements of Appendix V is that the documentation include the date of 

adoption, as well as the effective date, of the rule. In accordance with NH Revised Statutes 

Annotated (RSA) 541-A:14, an agency may adopt a rule after all procedures have been 

completed. The NH Department of Environmental Services (DES) adopts a rule on the day its 

Commissioner signs a letter advising that he has adopted the rule and files the adopted rule with' 

the Director of the Office of Legislative Services (OLS) . The rule takes effect the day after it is 

filed. The attachments hereto contain a letter from the DES Commissioner to the Director of the 

OLS, documenting the adoption of the rule, as well as written documentation from the OLS as to 

the filing and effective dates of the rule . 

Technical support materials are not included for any of the changes, as it is not 

anticipated that the enclosed rules will affect previous demonstrations regarding attainment of 

the national ambient air quality standards. 

Should you have any questions regarding this submittal, please contact Brian L. Jennison, 

Planning Specialist (bjennison(a-)des.state .nh.us) or (603) 271-0536 . Thank you. 

Sincerely, 

Robert R. Scott 

Director
