Title

A RESOLUTION CONCERNING PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY'S WATERSHED PROTECTION AND RESTORATION FINANCIAL ASSURANCE PLAN (FAP) for the purpose of approving the Prince George's County Financial Assurance Plan as required by State law.

 

Background

The Environmental Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland, Section 4-202.1, Watershed Protection and Restoration Program update requires that jurisdictions subject to a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase I MS4 permit submit a Financial Assurance Plan to the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) by July 2019.

 

State law requires the governing body to hold a public hearing and approve the financial assurance plan.  The plan is to demonstrate funding capacity necessary to fulfill the watershed protection and restoration requirements in accordance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Municipal Stormwater Permit.
