Coastal Stormwater Rules 7/15/08 Morning Update Yesterday evening Senate Bill 1967 (PCS) passed second and third reading on the House Floor. From here the bill should be presented and enrolled and possibly become law by the end of the week, with an effective date of Oct. 1st 2008. Please check back often as will continue to provide a morning and afternoon update. If you would like to track/monitor the bills progress click here  The bill incorporates many of the significant changes that BASE asked for. Your BASE Governmental Affairs staff has continuously participated in and been very vocal on a number of outstanding concerns during the entire General Assembly 605 process. With key facts and figures BASE has made some significant strides in modifications and clarifications to the rules as they were approved by the Environmental Management Commission early this year. Below you may download the latest draft of the bill as well as a general synopsis of the all changes that have been made to date. We have also updated the Coastal Stormwater Flowchart to give you a better idea of the route you will have to take for a specific development project. From here we fully expect this bill to move forward at a pretty substantial pace and we will continue to monitor its progress, and if necessary participate in any future committee meetings to testify or provide feedback.
