RMP Sources, Pathways, and Loading Workgroup Meeting

The RMP Sources, Pathways, and Loading workgroup met on May 29, 2015 to review SPL activities and objectives; to check in on SPL management questions; and to discuss future monitoring and modeling designs that address the changed management emphasis.

Small Tributaries Loading Strategy

The Small Tributaries Loading Strategy (STLS) is overseen by the Sources, Pathways, and Loadings Workgroup. It focuses on loadings from small tributaries (the rivers, creeks, and storm drains that enter the Bay downstream of Chipps Island), in coordination with the Municipal Regional Permit for Stormwater (MRP).
