As it happens I was considering the two 2007 bills which went into effect in July 2008. HB 383 added the language that the rules were developed from and HB 663 added the permitting and funding mechanism.

"269:5 Positions Established. The department of environmental services may hire up to 6 additional staff positions to implement RSA 483-B and to perform education and outreach. Authorized positions include, at a minimum, 2 environmentalist II and 2 environmental III positions for implementation of RSA 483-B, and one environmentalist II position for education and outreach. Funding for the positions and associated costs shall be drawn from the wetlands and shorelands review fund under RSA 482-A:3, III."

Personally I believe that the methodology of funding the regulators by their regulatory fees creates an incentive for more bureacracy and is bad legislative policy.What is your opinion?
