Such ordinances shall supersede any existing local ordinances; 285.73(1)(b)(b) Provides for the countywide enforcement of such requirements by appropriate administrative and judicial process; 285.73(1)(c)(c) Provides for administrative organization, staff and financial and other resources necessary to effectively and efficiently carry out its program; 285.73(1)(d)(d) May authorize municipalities to participate in the administration and enforcement of air pollution programs; and 285.73(1)(e)(e) Is approved by the department as adequate to meet the requirements of this chapter and any applicable rules pursuant thereto. 285.73(2)(2) Any county may consult with regional planning commissions and may administer all or part of its air pollution control program in cooperation with one or more other counties or municipalities. Performance by or on behalf of a county pursuant to such cooperative undertaking shall be considered to be performance by the county for purposes of this section. 285.73(3)(3) If the department finds that the location, character or extent of particular concentrations of population, air contaminant sources, the geographic, topographic or meteorological considerations, or any combinations thereof, are such as to make impracticable the maintenance of appropriate levels of air quality without an area-wide air pollution control program, the department may determine the boundaries within which such program is necessary and require it. 285.73(4)(a)(a) If the department has reason to believe that a program in force pursuant to this section is inadequate to prevent and control air pollution in the jurisdiction to which such program relates, or that such program is being administered in a manner inconsistent with the requirements of this chapter, the department shall, on due notice, conduct a hearing on the matter. 285.73(4)(b)(b) If, after such hearing, the department determines that a program is inadequate to prevent and control air pollution in the county to which such program relates, or that such program is not accomplishing the purposes of this chapter, it shall require that necessary corrective measures be taken within a reasonable period of time, not to exceed 60 days. 285.73(4)(c)(c) If the county fails to take such necessary corrective action within the time required, the department shall administer within such county all of the regulatory provisions of this chapter. Such air pollution control program shall supersede all county air pollution regulations, ordinances and requirements in the affected jurisdiction. 285.73(5)(5) Any county in which the department administers its air pollution control program under sub. (4) may, with the approval of the department, resume a county air pollution control program which meets the requirements of sub. (1). 285.73(6)(6) Nothing in this chapter supersedes the jurisdiction of any county air pollution control program in operation on July 26, 1967, but any such program shall meet all requirements of this chapter for a county air pollution control program. Any approval required from the department shall be deemed granted unless the department takes specific action to the contrary. 285.73 HistoryHistory: 1973 c. 90; 1979 c. 34 s. 2102 (39) (g); 1995 a. 227 s. 506; Stats. 1995 s. 285.73. 285.73 Cross-referenceCross-reference: See also ch.
