In response to increasing climate change related disasters like forest fires and floods in California, Central Coast Water Board staff per direction from the Executive Officer developed Conditional Waiver of Waste Discharge Requirements for Disaster Related Emergency Waste Handling and Disposal Within the Central Coast Region (Order No. R3-2016-0001) to facilitate timely emergency waste cleanup and disposal activities to protect public health and water quality.  The development of the conditional waiver is consistent with Division of General Services Debris Management Committee recommendations to address disaster related cleanup response needs and is consistent with the development of similar regulatory instruments by Regions 5, 6, 8 and 9.  At the time the decision was made to develop the conditional waiver, it was determined that it was a regional priority over the development or update of an individual landfill permit as identified as a FY 15/16 performance target for Region 3.

WHAT THE CARD IS SHOWING

Each target card provides a direct comparison of actual outputs for the fiscal year (July 1st to June 30th) to the target estimates established at the outset of the fiscal year. While budgetary and personnel information is not directly aligned with the activities being assessed, it does provide a basis for understanding the relative priority of key programs within each region and across the State. For the actual outputs presented, the Water Boards are continuing to evolve its data bases for improved accuracy. Some of the measurements reported may be different than the measurements tracked by the regions and programs. In addition, there are several targets for which outputs cannot be readily displayed without modification to the databases. This includes the number of permits revised, which should include the number of permits reviewed, revised and/or rescinded.

For the actual outputs presented, the Water Boards are continuing to evolve its data bases for improved accuracy. Some of the measurements reported may be different than the measurements tracked by the regions and programs. Notably, the data portrayed include entries completed before November 4, 2014 and may not reflect data input after that period.

WHY THIS CARD IS IMPORTANT

Beginning with FY 2009-10, performance targets were established for certain output measures. Targets are goals that establish measurable levels of performance to be achieved within a specified time period. This card demonstrates how the resources of the region are being deployed to protect water quality. In establishing the targets, the Regional Water Boards considered the unique differences and needs within their respective watersheds, their work priorities given available resources, external factors such as furloughs, and prior year outputs.

TECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS

  • Target circles: = Less than 60% of target met
    = Target met between 60% and 80%
    = Target met at 80% or above.
  • Other Programs (budget): miscellaneous programs not included in the above.
  • Permits issued: Does not include rescissions, amendments or permit revisions that may have been included in the targets.
