SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)

Water Quality Improvement Act. Specifies minimum public participation requirements to be used in the development of guidelines describing eligibility requirements, priorities, and criteria for grants from the Water Quality Improvement Fund. The Director of the Department of Environmental Quality may, if he finds that sufficient funds are available in the Water Quality Improvement Fund for substantial and continuing progress in implementation of tributary plans, make grants from the Fund for purposes other than nutrient reduction at publicly owned treatment works. The bill also requires notice of proposed grant agreements to be given to those who request it. The bill adds “instructional education directly associated with the implementation or maintenance of a specific non-point source reduction initiative” to the nonexclusive list of the types of projects that may receive nonpoint funding.
