Dane County Water Quality Plan Amendments
Through its capacity as an agent to the Wisconsin DNR, CARPC conducts technical reviews and administers public participation processes for amendments to the Dane County Water Quality Plan. Following Commission action, plan amendments are forwarded to the Wisconsin DNR for administrative decision on amending the DCWQP as part of areawide water quality management planning under state administrative code NR 121 and the federal Clean Water Act.
Amendments to the Dane County Water Quality Plan may involve revisions to the sewer service area boundaries and environmental corridor boundaries, adoption of priority watershed plans, revisions to wastewater management in the region, or updates to technical appendices. Excepting amendments related to service area boundary revisions, the following table provides a record of all amendments to the Dane County Water Quality Plan.
