CONCISE SUMMARY:
These rules:
AGENCY: 06-096 - Department of Environmental Protection
CHAPTER NUMBER AND TITLE: Chapter 374, Rules Regarding the Traffic Movement Standard of the Site Location of Development Law
ADOPTED RULE NUMBER: 97-221
CONCISE SUMMARY: This rule amendment implements the traffic related changes to the Site Location of Development Law (Site Law) which become effective July 1, 1997. The rule reflects the statutory change in jurisdiction. A project generating more than 11 vehicle trips in the peak hour of operation will be considered a "development" and thus will require traffic review under the Site Law regardless of how man acres the project covers. The rule also spells out the process for the "scoping meetings" designed to improve municipal and state coordination of traffic reviews. The rule also sets forth limited guidelines for determining what traffic must be studied in the vicinity of a development. Traffic within a development will no longer be reviewed by the state.
