7430.41 - Regional Foresters and Station Directors
6. The Regional Forester's approval authority for the design of all construction,
reconstruction, and modifications of wastewater collection and treatment systems is delegated to
the Regional Office Director of Engineering. This includes the responsibility to ensure
coordination of State review and approval of wastewater collection and/or treatment systems, as
necessary. The Director of Engineering may redelegate design authority on a case-by-case basis.
Forest Supervisors may submit a written request for delegated authority to the Director of
Engineering. The request will identify specific individuals assigned to the design team and their
roles and responsibilities. Criteria for evaluating delegated authorities include design team
members’ prior experience, education, certifications and/or professional licensing, and the
demonstrated ability of the design team to conduct adequate peer review of design work.
