EPA will once again be conducting inspections of wastewater facilities throughout the State. One of the most reported deficiencies is the lack of Collection System Operation and Maintenance Plans and Sewer Overflow Response Plans (SORP). If you don't have these plans or would like to update/upgrade your plans, we now have editable templates on our website. These templates have been modified to include NYS specific language regarding the Sewage Pollution Right to Know overflow reporting requirements.
The Draft Phase III Watershed Implementation Plan for the Chemung and Susquehanna River Basins for the Chesapeake Bay Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) is available for public comment through June 7, 2019.
