Useful Water Quality Information

Water Quality information that is very useful in the EHP Review includes: 

• Detailed descriptions and related studies and reports of proposed disturbances or discharges into bodies of water or wetlands. Disturbances include clearing, grading, dredging, cutting or filling. Discharges include storm water, wastewater, pollutants.
• Documents (e.g., Initial Study, Environmental Impact Statement) evaluating potential effects of the project activities on water resources.
• Documentation of best management practices to be used for erosion and sediment control.
• Documentation of coordination with other agencies (e.g. USACE, USEPA, state Department of Natural Resources, EPA, or Department of Environmental Protection), including studies and reports and recommendations.
