Clean Water Advisory Committee
The Clean Water Advisory Committee (CWAC) oversees the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission activities and policy development regarding but not limited to, the Vermont Lake Champlain Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Plan and its related plans and programs.
The CWAC also has an MS-4 (Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System) Sub-Committee consisting of representatives of the nine municipalities and three agencies charged with implementing the Rethink Runoff campaign as part of their Public Education, Outreach, Participation and Involvement permit requirements. The CWAC and the MS-4 Subcommitee will meet at the call of the Chairs. Their typical meeting times will be the first Tuesday of the month.
Please note: As of January 25, 2023, all CCRPC committee meetings are remote unless otherwise noted. Details for joining the meeting online or by phone can be found in the meeting packets below. Video recordings of the meetings are available upon request. Please send an email to dalbrecht@ccrpcvt.org.
