STATE WATER RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD
RESOLUTION NO. 98 - 119
AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO NEGOTIATE, APPROVE, AND AMEND AN INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND GAME FOR THE BAY PROTECTION AND TOXIC CLEANUP PROGRAM
WHEREAS:
| 1. | The Bay Protection and Toxic Cleanup Program (BPTCP) was established by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) to implement the requirements of Section 13390 et seq. of the Water Code which includes the development of Regional and Consolidated Toxic Hot Spot Cleanup Plans for the enclosed bays estuaries of the State. |
| 2. | Seven coastal Regional Water Quality Control Boards (RWQCBs) and the SWRCB have implemented regional monitoring for the BPTCP though interagency agreements with the Department of Fish and Game (DFG). |
| 3. | The DFG has prepared written reports on all monitoring data describing and evaluating the results of chemical and biological data collected from the seven coastal regions of the State. |
| 4. | The DFG technical assistance to the RWQCBs and the SWRCB is necessary for assessing, interpreting, and managing the BPTCP monitoring data; and for revising and finalizing the Regional and Consolidated Toxic Hot Spots Cleanup Plans. |
| 5. | The work to be completed in this contract will include production of peer reviewed journal publication on the BPTCP data. Publication in peer review journals will allow the BPTCP's methods and findings to undergo scientific scrutiny and public distribution providing the SWRCB, RWQCBs, and participating agencies a greater degree of scientific credibility for the BPTCP and its findings. |
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
The SWRCB authorizes the Executive Director or his designee, to negotiate, approve, and amend an interagency agreement with the DFG for an amount not to exceed $456,000 from the Bay Protection and Toxic Cleanup Fund in FY 1998-99.
