  80-15-110. State regulations no more stringent than federal regulations or guidelines. (1) After April 14, 1995, except as provided in subsections (2) through (5) or unless required by state law, the department of environmental quality may not adopt a rule to implement this chapter that is more stringent than the comparable federal regulations or guidelines that address the same circumstances. The department of environmental quality may incorporate by reference comparable federal regulations or guidelines.  (2) The department of environmental quality may adopt a rule to implement this chapter that is more stringent than comparable federal regulations or guidelines only if it makes a written finding after a public hearing and public comment and based on evidence in the record that:   (a) the proposed state standard or requirement protects public health or the environment of the state; and   (b) the state standard or requirement to be imposed can mitigate harm to the public health or environment and is achievable under current technology.   (3) The written finding must reference information and peer-reviewed scientific studies contained in the record that forms the basis for the conclusion. The written finding must also include information from the hearing record regarding the costs to the regulated community that are directly attributable to the proposed state standard or requirement.

If the board determines that the rule is more stringent than comparable federal regulations or guidelines, the department of environmental quality shall comply with this section by either revising the rule to conform to the federal regulations or guidelines or by making the written finding, as provided under subsection (2), within a reasonable period of time, not to exceed 12 months after receiving the petition. A petition under this section does not relieve the petitioner of the duty to comply with the challenged rule. The board may charge a petition filing fee in an amount not to exceed $250.   (b) A person may also petition the board for a rule review under subsection (4)(a) if the board adopted a rule after January 1, 1990, and before July 1, 2021, in an area in which no federal regulations or guidelines existed and the federal government subsequently establishes comparable regulations or guidelines that are less stringent than the previously adopted board rule.

  80-15-212. Specific agricultural chemical ground water management plans. (1) Except as provided in 80-15-216, the department shall develop and implement agricultural chemical ground water management plans specific to particular agricultural chemicals and to a defined geographical area when the level of an agricultural chemical found in ground water is at 50% or greater of the standard or interim numerical standard at a point of standards application and is scientifically validated.   (2) The department may develop and implement an agricultural chemical ground water management plan specific to particular agricultural chemicals and may consider but is not limited to considering the following elements when determining whether or not to develop and implement agricultural chemical ground water management plans:   (a) a definite trend of increased presence of the agricultural chemical in ground water at a point of standards application is scientifically validated;   (b) agricultural chemicals have been determined to have migrated in the ground water from the point of detection;   (c) EPA proposes to suspend or cancel registration of an agricultural chemical, prohibits or restricts the chemical's sale or use in the state, or otherwise initiates action against a chemical because of ground water concerns, and EPA's action, restriction, or prohibition will be implemented unless the state develops an adequate management plan; or   (d) agricultural chemicals that possess or are suspected of possessing properties that indicate potential to migrate to ground water are being applied on areas underlain by ground water that is vulnerable to impairment.   (3) The department may initiate educational programs about agricultural chemical management to provide information and management techniques to protect ground water in an effort to preclude the need for development of specific agricultural chemical ground water management plans in the future.   (4) A person using an agricultural chemical that is addressed by a specific agricultural chemical ground water management plan in the geographical region that is addressed by the plan shall comply with the plan. The department may specifically identify and designate persons who are under the plan and may inform any person about the plan.   (5) The department shall prioritize preparation of specific agricultural chemical ground water management plans in consideration of the specific circumstances of each area and within available resources.
