The Contra Costa Clean Water Program's Management Committee directs the Clean Water Program. The Committee is made up of representatives from each of the nineteen(19)cities,the County,and the Flood Control District. An important requirement of the Joint Municipal NPDES Permit is stormwater monitoring, and conducting special studies and watershed assessments. Temporary technical and project management services are required to keep the Program in compliance due to the loss of one of the Program's critical technical staff. IV. Consequences of Negative Action: If the consulting services agreement with Eisenberg,Olivieri&Associates is not approved,then all municipalities will be in non-compliance with the Joint Municipal NPDES permits issued by the San Francisco Bay and Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Boards.
