About Part 5

Notes

These documents are derivative of the various versions available from the New York State Department of Health. Compare the versions at NYSDOH, their division of water (Bureau of Water Supply Protection - BWSP versions), and versions obtained from requests to the NYSDOH or NYSDOS.

New York also has an official printed version. Actual wording of the rules is no longer published in the State Register, although notices and other useful information are.

Attempts have been made to correct the errors in Part 5 here. Small errors and omissions have been corrected. The intent of the code has not been altered. Since these documents admittedly do not match the versions available from NYSDOH, do not use them for litigation.
