Introduced by: Edward T. Scott | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles | history
SUMMARY AS PASSED:
Wastewater treatment plants; total maximum daily load allocations. Establishes an expedited process for the State Water Control Board to review petitions from certain wastewater treatment facilities to maintain nutrient allocations based upon a higher design flow. The Board is authorized to accept these petitions through July 10, 2009. The Board in reviewing the petitions would determine whether to grant each petitioning facility an extension to December 31, 2015, to obtain a certificate at a higher design flow. The current deadline is December 31, 2010. Whether the facilities are granted or denied the extension, each facility would still have to comply with its currently applicable nutrient allocations by January 1, 2011, whether by obtaining point source nutrient credits or by some other means. This bill incorporates HB 2323. This bill is identical to SB 1022.
