received during the comment period. At the public hearing, four speakers
requested an additional 45 days for further review and comment on the
proposed Disposal Reporting System regulations. In addition, Board staff
identified some minor corrections to incorporate into the proposed
revised regulations.
An agenda item was presented to the Sustainability and Market
Development Committee on November 3, 2004 to discuss and request
direction on an additional 45-day comment period for the revised
Adjustment Method and Disposal Reporting System regulations. A few
stakeholders expressed their concerns about the revised regulations at

revised Disposal Reporting System regulations and have the comment
period end on January 15, 2005 or later since the additional 45-day
comment period might otherwise end during the holidays. The Sustainability and
Market Development Committee directed staff to include the additional
language in the revised Disposal Reporting System regulations and extend
