Tentative Orders

An NPDES Permit is being considered for nearly all municipal wastewater treatment plants in the region. The permit would reissue waste discharge requirements to regulate nutrients discharged from municipal wastewater treatment plants to San Francisco Bay.

A Waste Discharge Requirements Permit Termination is being considered for U.S. Department of Energy and Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratory, Livermore, Alameda County. The Order would terminate waste discharge requirements (WDRs) Order No. 88-075 for extracted groundwater discharges to land for the LLNL Livermore Site and the adjoining DOE research facility known as the Sandia National Laboratory. The San Francisco Bay Water Board will consider this item at its September 11, 2024, meeting.
