2021 Oklahoma Statutes|Title 27A. Environment and Natural Resources|§27A-1012. Legislative findings and declarations.

|The Legislature hereby finds that there are one or more public trusts having the State of Oklahoma as beneficiary which hold permits issued under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), pursuant to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended by the Federal Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C., Section 1251 et seq. In some instances, the state beneficiary public trust holding the NPDES permit receives waste water streams from third parties into a central waste water treatment system owned and operated by the public trust, and treats the commingled waste streams in the central waste water treatment system before discharging the resulting effluent pursuant to an NPDES permit into navigable waters of the United States of America located in this state. A state beneficiary public trust such as described in the preceding sentence hereof shall be referred to in this act as a "Central Treatment Trust", or a "CTT". The Legislature finds that there is uncertainty as to whether treatment facilities owned and operated by a CTT constitute "treatment works" that are publicly owned within the meaning of 33 U.S.C., Sections 1292 and 1317(b). The Legislature declares that there is a need to provide a mechanism for resolving this uncertainty. The Legislature further declares that a CTT should have the authority to make the election provided for in Section 3 of this act, whereupon for purposes of owning and operating its waste water treatment facilities only, such a CTT shall have the powers granted to it by Section 4 of this act, and in conjunction therewith, the Department of Environmental Quality, subsequently referred to in this act as "Department", shall exercise the powers granted to it pursuant to Sections 4 and 5 of this act. |Added by Laws 1993, c. 217, § 2, eff.

To develop a publicly owned treatment works pretreatment program consistent with and meeting the requirements of 40 CFR, Sections 403.8 and 403.9, and submit such POTW pretreatment program for approval to the appropriate approval authority specified in 40 CFR, Section 403.3(c);2. To enter into a coordinating agreement with the Department pursuant to which the Department shall exercise the enforcement powers specified in Section 5 of this act with respect to the POTW owned and operated by such CTT.

27A OK Stat § 27A-2202 (2021)
2021 Oklahoma Statutes|Title 27A. Environment and Natural Resources|§27A-2202. Legislative findings.

|A. The Legislature recognizes that historic lead and zinc mining operations have caused severe environmental degradation in areas of this state. The Legislature further recognizes that this degradation has caused the United States Environmental Protection Agency to place large areas within the state, including entire municipalities, on its Superfund National Priorities List of the most seriously contaminated sites in the nation. |B. The Legislature finds that lead poses a unique threat to children six (6) years of age and younger. During this period of their development children are particularly vulnerable to neurological damage caused by lead exposure. The effects of this childhood exposure can continue throughout their lives.C. The Legislature hereby finds and determines that, as shown by studies conducted by the State Department of Health and the United States Indian Health Service, children six (6) years of age and younger, living in the vicinity of these former mining areas, exhibit blood lead levels above the thresholds considered dangerous to human health, and continued exposure of such children to lead constitutes a significant danger to the health of such children in the future. Further, the Legislature hereby determines a need exists to remedy the problem, by providing incentives for families with children six (6) years of age and younger to relocate outside the area of contamination.D. The Legislature further recognizes that much of the damage caused by historic lead and zinc mining has resulted in a serious subsidence risk in the affected areas. The United States Army Corps of Engineers has identified municipalities within those areas where the risk of subsidence poses an imminent risk to the public and the Legislature therefore finds that a need exists to remedy this problem by expanding the purpose of this act to provide incentives for those owning or leasing property in the affected areas to relocate to areas of greater safety.Added by Laws 2004, c. 371, § 2.

The courts shall have no jurisdiction to entertain any action against a recipient trust, the State of Oklahoma, their officers or agents founded on a claim that the claimant should have received different or better treatment from the trust. |B. The determinations made by the trust pursuant to this relocation assistance program including, without limitation, determinations as to what constitutes the most affected area of the site, the area of greatest subsidence risk, the average rental cost of comparable housing, the average cost of comparable properties, the eligibility of any person for assistance, and the determination of the proper amount of such assistance, if any, shall be committed to the sole discretion of the trust based on the information available to it and shall not be subject to judicial review.Added by Laws 2004, c. 371, § 5.
