Stormwater Policy Advisory Committee

The 1999 Legislature directed the Department of Ecology to form an advisory committee for the purpose of updating the stormwater management plan and stormwater technical manual and making stormwater management recommendations. The advisory committee considered policy issues associated with the stormwater technical manual, provided comment and suggestions on the scope and content of the stormwater management study and recommendations to the Legislature. See Stormwater Policy Advisory Committee for additional information.
