Mt. Vernon Workshop - Draft Financial Capability Assessment Guidance

We will be sharing more information about the guidance and demonstrating using the spreasheet tool to perform the assessment. 

We request that attendees RSVP by emailing psnutrientsGP@ecy.wa.gov prior to the meeting to help us plan for attendance.

Discharges of excess nutrients — particularly nitrogen — to Puget Sound from domestic wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are contributing to existing low oxygen levels in Puget Sound and the rest of the Salish Sea. The Clean Water Act and federal rules require WWTPs that contribute to water quality impairments by discharging excess nutrients to take action to prevent this pollution. The Nutrient General Permit applies to 58 domestic WWTPs discharging to marine and estuarine waters of the Salish Sea in Washington.
