Print this Article | Send to Colleague

DEQ has released notifications for two Watershed Clean-Up Plans. While these appear to be focused on bacteria impairment, it is worth monitoring if you have operations in the listed watersheds. Also, if you do have operations in these watersheds, the Environmental Committee has recommendations to follow. Contact Rob Lanham if you have questions or need additional information.
