The agency is responsible for monitoring sewage spills, fining water polluters and carrying out Clean Water Act mandates.
Major issues before the board include:
Whether to force shipyards, the Navy, the city of San Diego and other parties to clean up toxic sediment in San Diego Bay. The project could cost $100 million.
How to update stormwater regulations that generated a protracted lawsuit from the building industry. The state Supreme Court upheld the rules last year.
How to issue a cleanup order for Chollas Creek despite San Diego's resistance. City officials said related projects could cost hundreds of millions of dollars.
Not a post about water-boarding quality, I guess.
Nevermind.
Sigh.
How do they vote? They must use a Wigi board or judge the candidate on his physical appearance since gathering solid background information appears to be of little concern.
Thanks for posting this small window into the Austrian's operation.
