Chapter 91 Regulatory Framework and Guidance

Heather Bruce had prepared a new Chapter 91 with the changes which have been approved. Copies were distributed to all members. It was decided to review the corrections and changes which had been made. Heather Bruce said that she had tentatively added Regulation 9.51 to replace the two paragraphs cited from 9.52 and 9.53.

The entire document was reviewed and some corrections were made. On page 9 it was thought that a section for Water-dependent uses should be written to go with the "Standards for Non-Water-Dependent Infrastructure Facilities"

Ann Colbourn said that the last paragraph on Page 18 of Rex McKinsey’s draft should have been left in, although Heather Bruce had felt that most of it was redundant and no longer appropriate. Ann Colbourn said that she would rewrite the paragraph for the Committee’s approval on Wednesday.

The Committee also wanted more time to review Regulation 9.51 and the paragraph which Ann Colbourn had written and distributed on "Guidance to DEP for water related projects".. The corrected Appendix B also needs to be reviewed. It was thought that all this could be completed on Wednesday.

NEXT MEETING: February 9, 2005 at 4:30 p.m.

A motion to adjourn was made at 6:04p.m. by Gerard Irmer and seconded by Kerry Adams. The motion was approved unanimously.

Respectfully submitted,

Cynthia Curran
