From the Central Valley Regional Water Board:
The Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (Central Valley Water Board or Board) will hold a public hearing to receive comments and consider a resolution to approve the Delta Nutrient Research Plan.
The Central Valley Water Board’s 2014 Delta Strategic Work Plan and the Delta Plan (adopted by the Delta Stewardship Council in 2013) identify development of a Delta Nutrient Research Plan as a priority. The Delta Nutrient Research Plan establishes a framework and actions to generate information to determine whether numeric water quality objectives for nutrients are needed and whether nutrient reductions will decrease existing water quality concerns in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.
A public hearing concerning this matter will be held during the Central Valley Water Board meeting scheduled for:
DATE: August 2-3 2018
TIME: 8:30 a.m.
