Agenda

Submittal
of Written Material for Regional Board Consideration
|
|
To
ensure that the Regional Board Members are given the opportunity
to fully study and consider written material, it is necessary that
12 copies of any such material be provided to the Executive Officer
not later than 5:00 p.m. on February 13, 2002. This will allow distribution
of the material to the Board Members and appropriate staff in advance
of the meeting.
Failure to comply with the February 13, 2002, submission deadline
is grounds for the Board to refuse to admit the proposed written
comment or exhibit into evidence. (Title 23, CCR, Section 648.4)
The Regional Board may refuse to admit written testimony into evidence
unless the proponent can demonstrate why he or she was unable to
submit the material on time or that compliance with the deadline
would otherwise create a hardship. If any other party demonstrates
prejudice resulting from admission of the written testimony, the
Regional Board may refuse to admit it.
If
you are reading a statement at the Board meeting, please provide
the Executive Assistant with a copy at the meeting. The Board will
endeavor to consider all matters listed on this agenda. However,
time may not allow the Board to hear all matters listed. Matters
not heard at this meeting may be carried over to the next Board
meeting or to a future Board meeting. Parties will be notified in
writing of the rescheduling of their item. Please contact the Regional
Board staff to find out about rescheduled items.
Material presented to the Board as part of testimony that is to
be made part of the record must be left with the Board. This includes
photographs, slides, charts, diagrams, etc. All Board files pertaining
to the items on this Agenda are hereby made a part of the record
submitted to the Regional Board by staff for its consideration prior
to action on the related items
