BLUE-RIBBON PANEL: SUPPORTING COMPLIANCE TOWARD WATERSHED RESTORATION
Staff will introduce the Santa Rosa Water Department’s Blue-Ribbon Panel process. The main task of the Blue-Ribbon Panel is to identify a set of principles or framework that supports watershed-oriented, cost-effective mitigation measures in response to the City’s existing nutrient water quality limits related to Total Phosphorus (TP) discharges from the Laguna Treatment Plant. This alternative approach is anticipated to provide the City a consistent compliance mechanism while providing reliable, ongoing benefits to the ecosystem within the Laguna de Santa Rosa watershed.
