Summary
The purpose of this bill is to allow the Department of Environmental Protection to issue water pollution control permits that contain water quality-based net limits; to allow the setting of storm water benchmarks that are no more stringent than water quality standards; to allow use of a mixing zone for storm water discharges; to prohibit benchmarks and permit limits where natural quality is lower than water quality criteria; to allow permittees to demonstrate that discharges of storm water in excess of water quality standards will not cause mortality to aquatic life; to allow submission of discharge monitoring reports on the 28th day of the month following the monitoring period; and to specify facility changes that do not require major modifications. This amendment shall be known as the “Storm water, Netting and Permitting Act of 2018”.
