| The
Governor of California appoints the nine-member
Regional Board, whose members serve four-year
terms once they are confirmed by the State
Senate. Members of the Regional Board serve
part-time and conduct their business at
regular meetings where public participation
is encouraged. The Board normally holds
public meetings 10 times per year to make
decisions on water quality matters.
Regional
Board members represent specific categories
related to the control of water quality,
and must reside in, or have a principal
place of business within, the Region.
The
Board relies on the Regional Board staff
to conduct the day-to-day tasks associated
with water quality management. Most of them are engineers,
geologists and biologists.
Implementing
programs according to state and federal
law and following the Board's direction,
staff recommends water quality standards,
drafts permits, oversees remediation of
contaminated sites, conducts enforcements
activities, and deals directly with the
public on a regular basis.
