District Events
e) CWEA P3S Committee Meetinq
The District will be hosting the next meeting of the California Water
Environment's Pretreatment, Pollution Prevention and Stormwater Committee on
October 28, 2010. As part of this meeting, Environmental Compliance Inspector II
Jeff Skinner will be giving a technical presentation on the District's program to
control pollutants generated from mobile washers active in the District's service
area. In addition to the standard Committee attendance, neighboring agency staff
will be invited to attend this session so they can hear the mobile washer
presentation and have exposure to the Committee's activities.
Fee Increase Update
f) State Water Board Not Increasing Rates
Included in your Board binder announcements was information on a possible fee
increase by the State Water Board to support the National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) regulatory program. The District was informed that
due to a "late development resulting from some last minute number crunching by
State Water Board staff', on October 19, 2010, the State Water Board adopted a
fee schedule for FY2010 -11 that carries forward the fee methodology from the
prior fiscal year. This good news keeps the fee the District will pay at $127,000
instead of increasing to $143,000.
