A. The Department may issue an order to a respondent requiring

compliance with the Oklahoma Water Supply Systems Act, rules of the

Board, and orders previously issued to such respondent. Such orders

may require a change in the source or sources of a public water

necessary to safeguard the public health or environment. Such

orders shall be issued pursuant to the Administrative Procedures

Act, this Code and rules promulgated thereunder.

B. The Department may issue an emergency order to any public

water supply system requiring change in the source of the water

supply or in the manner of storage, distribution, purification or

treatment of the supply before delivery to consumers, or any other

action which, in the Executive Director's judgment, is necessary to

safeguard the health of the consumers or the environment.

1. The order may require public water supply systems to notify

consumers of the problem with the supply and the action required by

order of the Executive Director.

2. Any respondent to whom such an order is directed and who

considers the requirements of the order to be illegal, unjust or

unreasonable may request an administrative hearing within ten (10)

days after the order is served. Such hearing shall be subject to

the Administrative Procedures Act, rules promulgated by the Board

and this Code.

3. The order shall remain in full effect until it is rescinded

by the Executive Director.
