PUBLIC COMMENT NOTICE:

The Wheeling-Ohio County Board of Health, during the March 12, 2024 regular Board of Health Meeting, approved a revision to the Fees for Permit and Fees for Environmental Services to be effective July 1, 2024.  This rule is open for public comment. All public comments must be received by April 16,2024 by 4:30pm. Public comments can be submitted to:

Wheeling-Ohio County Health Department

Administrator

1500 Chapline Street, Suite 106

Wheeling, WV 26003.

The Wheeling-Ohio County Health Department is proposing to adopt a local rule that establishes environmental fees for permits and environmental fees for services.  This action is necessary due to the repeal of the current state rule, 64CSR30, which will now give county health departments the authority to establish a current environmental health fee schedule. The new local rule has an increase in fees to offset rising costs and requirements.  The fees are to be used for the purpose of conducting the public health programs for which the fees are collected and no portion of these fees will be used for any purpose outside the authority of the Wheeling-Ohio County Board of Health.  There will be a thirty (30) day comment period beginning March 18, 2024 and ending April 16, 2024. Copies of the regulation can be obtained at the Wheeling-Ohio County Health Department during normal business hours Monday through Friday 8:30am to 4:30pm.
