Clean Water Plan Public Participation
Information, documents, and links to information about TMDLs or watershed plans that are currently in development and in the public participation phase, and the dates and locations of public meetings are listed on this page.
What to expect at public meetings
Before a draft TMDL or watershed plan is developed, DEC meets with the watershed community to introduce the process, share information about what DEC knows about the waterbody, and to get feedback from the community. For specific waterbodies, additional meetings may be held throughout the process, as needed.

Public comment period after completion of draft documents
