SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Water supply planning. Requires the State Water Control Board, in consultation with the State Health Commissioner, local governments, public service authorities, and other interested parties, to establish a comprehensive water supply planning process for the development of local, regional and state water supply plans. The planning process should (i) ensure that adequate and safe drinking water is available, (ii) encourage and protect all beneficial uses, and (iii) encourage, promote and develop incentives for alternative water sources. A citizens' technical advisory committee is to continue to advise DEQ and the Health Department regarding any changes needed in the Commonwealth's water resources policies and programs. The Board is to prepare a preliminary state water resources plan and proposed draft criteria for development of the local and regional plans by December 1, 2003. The preliminary plan, which will include information from existing local and regional water supply plans, is to be submitted to the Governor and the legislative committees with jurisdiction over the subject matter and the State Water Commission. This bill incorporates SB 1245 and SB 1259.
