Although it is common for regulatory entities to expand their regulatory requirements, the Susquehanna River Basin Commission (Commission) recently adopted new regulations and policies that contract and simplify regulations, provide clarity to project sponsors, target only the most appropriate activities, and establish a more efficient and effective framework to review groundwater withdrawals. The changes will benefit the regulated community while maintaining appropriate Commission oversight of water resources and prevent significant adverse impacts within the basin. The changes will also reduce costs to public water supply systems and corporations that use water in their processes.
Anyone with a regulated groundwater withdrawal project should attend this webinar! The Commission will provide an in-depth look at improvements to regulations and policies including:
The webinar will also touch on regulations that build upon successful program changes with the Commission’s natural gas consumptive use (ABR(f)) program, its minor modification regulation, and general project review regulations.
