Local Environmental
Protection Program
The Local Environmental Protection Program (LEPP) continues to emphasize the importance
of wastewater and private well water codes, to be developed and administered by
county health departments and other local authorities. Development of a sanitary
code is an important first step in addressing the overall water quality needs of
a community.
LEPP funding enables local authorities to develop water protection plans which are
customized for their areas and compliment other water quality efforts being waged
by state and federal agencies. Plans developed with LEPP funds describe actions
that communities will take to manage private septic system waste water treatment,
solid waste, hazardous waste, nonpoint source pollution, and private water wells.
The following regulations represent an electronic facsimile of Kansas Administrative
Regulations, promulgated by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and
published by the Kansas Secretary of State. These rules are taken from electronic
copies of the printed state regulations which serve as the agency's official rules
and regulations. The printed regulations represent the final word in matters of
interpretation.
The KDHE Office of Communications has appended copies of the Kansas State Register
publication of new or amended, permanent KDHE regulations to the appropriate chapter.
Those amendments are noted on the cover sheet for each chapter.
