Local Environmental Protection Program


LEPP funding enables local authorities to develop water protection plans which are customized for their areas and complement 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.
