Water Quality Trading Under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Program; Extension of Comment Period

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a document in the Federal Register of September 19, 2019, requesting comments on policy approaches for addressing "baseline" issues in the watersheds with EPA-approved Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) where policy makers would like to pursue water quality trading as a regulatory option for National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit compliance. These policy approaches may also be of interest to stakeholders pursuing market-based water quality improvement programs outside of the NPDES permit program. This document extends the comment period for an additional 30 days, from November 18, 2019 to December 18, 2019 in response to a stakeholder request.
