SECTION 252:626-1-1. Purpose  


Latest version.
  • (a)   Implement and enforce the "Oklahoma Water Supply Systems Act", 27A O.S. § 2-6-301 et seq.
    (b)   This chapter applies to any person or entity that constructs or modifies a public water supply distribution system or water supply system and sets the permit and construction standards for all public water supply systems. This chapter does not apply to individual water systems, except the fees for individual well inspections are included in OAC 252:626-3-10. The design criteria in this chapter are set at a minimum and will be considered as such by the DEQ. These standards do not prevent the consulting engineer from recommending or the DEQ from approving more effective treatment where local conditions dictate. Other rules govern public water supply systems, including OAC 252:606, 624, 631, 633, 641, 710, and other appropriate local, state and federal regulations.
