Analysis Prepared by the Department of Natural Resources

Section 101.144, Stats.
2. Statutory Authority:
Section 227.26(4)(b), Stats.
Section 227.29(1)(a), Stats.
Section 292.31(2), Stats.
3. Explanation of Agency Authority:

4. Related Statutes or Rules:
Section 292.63, Stats.
Chapter NR 747
5. Plain Language Analysis:
Chapter NR 746, Wis. Adm. Code, was originally adopted jointly by the Department of Commerce and the Department of Natural Resources and appeared in the Wisconsin Administrative Code as ch. Comm 46 (subsequently transferred to the Department of Safety and Professional Services by 2011 Wis. Act 32 and renumbered ch. SPS 346) and ch. NR 746.
Chapter NR 746 identifies the roles, processes and procedures that guided the Departments of Safety and Professional Services and Natural Resources in the administration of their respective responsibilities under ss. 101.144, 292.11, 292.31, and 292.63, Stats., and ch. 160, Stats., for oversight and supervision of high, medium and low risk sites where petroleum products have discharged from petroleum storage tanks. The rule codified a memorandum of understanding between the agencies that was required by s. 101.144 (3m), Stats.
As part of 2013 Wis. Act 20, Department of Safety and Professional Services authority for the PECFA Program was transferred to the Department of Natural Resources and ch. SPS 346 was removed from the Administrative Code. Section 101.144, Stats., was repealed, and chapter NR 746 became unnecessary and unauthorized.
