Basin Plan Amendment to Incorporate Applicable Provisions of Statewide Plans and Policies

Amendments to the Water Quality Control Plan for the Central Coastal Basin (Basin Plan) to incorporate applicable provisions of statewide plans and policies adopted by the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) since 2015 (new and amended), correct typographical errors and punctuation, and comply with Assembly Bill (AB) 434 web accessibility requirements that require state agency websites to comply with Government Code sections 7405 and 11135 and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0. The amendments make changes to the Basin Plan that are non-regulatory because they are editorial in nature or incorporate applicable provisions that were adopted by the State Water Board and are already in effect statewide (and therefore, the Central Coast Water Board is already subject to and implementing those provisions), and available on the State Water Board’s Plans and Policies website.
