Description

The GCA Environment Committee invites you to attend the presentation from the DOH Clean Water Branch on July 15 at 10:00 a.m. via zoom or at the GCA Conference Room. 

Mr. Darryl Lum will focus on the following key points:

• Water Quality Management Improvement Work.  (Note: Previously called TMDL Improvement Strategy with Statewide Monitoring Surveillance System in last year’s presentation.)
• Guidance clarifying how state waters are identified and regulated in response to 2023 Supreme Court Sackett decision.
• Duration of NPDES General Permit Coverages provided under Hawaii Administrative Rules Chapter 11-55, Appendices B, E, F, G, and K.
• Blanket Water Quality Certification (WQC1100) for 2026 Nation Wide Permits.

If you have any specific questions for the presenters, please send those questions to me and I’ll make sure to forward to the presenters.
