For example, Env-Wq 1103.01 was readopted with amendments and renumbered as Env-Wq 1111.01 through Env-Wq 1111.03 in Part Env-Wq 1111 entitled "Waivers."

Document # 10577 replaces the prior filing for rules in the former Chapter Env-Wq 1100 filed under Document #8468, which had been effective 11-1-05. The rules in the former Chapter Env-Wq 1100 did not expire on 11-1-13 since they were extended pursuant to RSA 541-A:14-a until replaced by the rules in Document #10577, effective 5-1-14.
