The Department of Environmental Protection will host a fifth round of public meetings of Regional Water Resource Committees to help get input into the 2022 State Water Plan Update.  Read more here.

The Plan update, required every five years by Act 220 of 2002, serves as a policy and guidance document providing information, objectives, priorities and recommendations to be considered in a broad range of state, local and private water resource decisions.

Another goal of the Plan update is to review and finalize Critical Area Resource Plans in the Potomac and Ohio regions that were left unfinished during the 2009 update.
