Specific responsibilities and procedures of the Regional Boards and the State Water Resources Control Board are outlined in the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act. The purpose of this meeting is for the Board to obtain testimony and information from concerned and affected parties and make decisions after considering the recommendations made by the Executive Officer. Any person affected adversely by a decision of this Board may petition the State Water Resources Control Board to review the decision. The petition must be received by the State Board within 30 days of the Regional Board's meeting at which the adverse action was taken. Copies of the law and regulations applicable to filing petitions will be provided upon request. The Board and staff welcome information on pertinent problems, but comments at the meeting should be brief and directed to specifics of the case to enable the Board to take appropriate action. Whenever possible, lengthy testimony should be presented to the Board in writing and only a summary of pertinent points presented verbally.
