Nonpoint Source (NPS) Pollution Control Program
THE PLAN FOR CALIFORNIA'S NONPOINT SOURCE POLLUTION CONTROL PROGRAM
(NPS Program Plan)
The purpose of the NPS Program Plan is to improve
the State's ability to effectively manage NPS pollution
and conform to the requirements of the Federal Clean
Water Act and the Federal Coastal Zone Act Reauthorization
Amendments of 1990. These documents were developed
by staff of the State Water Resources Control Board's Division of Water Quality
and the California Coastal Commission (CCC), in coordination
with the Regional Water Quality Control Boards and staff from over twenty other
State agencies.
The
documents were submitted for final federal approval
on February 4, 2000, to the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (USEPA) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA). A letter granting full approval
of the NPS Program Plan was signed on July 17, 2000.
The USEPA/NOAA Approval Letter, Decisions on Conditions
of Approval (CZARA), and Response to Comments are
available on the EPA Website.
