In compliance with the Constitution and Government Code, adjudicative matters pending before the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board are subject to a prohibition on ex parte communication. Adjudicative matters are those items where the board functions like a court. Persons interested in these adjudicative matters may not communicate with the Regional Board members regarding any issue in the proceeding, without providing an opportunity for all parties to participate in or receive a copy of the communication. Generally this means that any communication to the Regional Board members on these matters must occur at a duly noticed meeting on the matter or must be in writing and transmitted to all parties known to be interested in the proceeding.
