The City has revised its SWMP to incorporate those required revisions listed in Attachment A to the Central Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board's February 8, 2008 Resolution No. R3-2008-012.  The City's revised SWMP discusses proposed activities and commitments that the City will undertake through the year 2009 to protect the community's surface water quality and downstream water resources.  Regional Board staff will review and comment on this revised SWMP and will provide a 30-day public review and comment period.  The revisions incorporated into this revised SWMP will be considered by the Regional Board at its
July 11, 2008 meeting in Watsonville.

Consistent the City's posting of this revised SWMP, the City has opened a 30-day public review and comment period.  The scope of the review and comment period addresses only the required revisions included in the Regional Board's February 8, 2008 Resolution R3-2008-0012.  All comments must be submitted in writing and must be received by City staff by 5:00 P.M. on Thursday May 8, 2008.  All comments should be directed in writing to Christopher Callihan, Sr. Deputy City Attorney, at 200 Lincoln Avenue, Salinas, California 93901 or to chrisc@ci.salinas.ca.us.  If you have any questions, please contact Christopher Callihan at 831.758.7256.
