The State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) has issued a public notice announcing: (1) the availability of an informal staff draft Statewide Sanitary Sewer System WDR, and (2) two public workshops to provide stakeholders and interested parties information regarding the preliminary informal staff draft General Order. Stakeholders and interested parties are encouraged to provide oral feedback to staff during these workshops.

The Sanitary Sewer Systems WDR requires public agencies that own or operate sanitary sewer systems to develop and implement sewer system management plans and report all SSOs to the State Water Board’s online SSO database. All public agencies that own or operate a sanitary sewer system that is comprised of more than one mile of pipes or sewer lines which conveys wastewater to a publicly owned treatment facility must apply for coverage under the Sanitary Sewer Systems WDR.
