As required by the Clean Waterways Act, DEP must prepare updates to its nutrient BMAPs (Basin Management Action Plans) by July 1, 2025.
Share your insights on the Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP), a vital framework for restoring water quality! This plan outlines a range of strategies aimed at achieving the pollutant reductions set by a TMDL (Total Maximum Daily Load). These strategies include setting permit limits for regulated facilities, implementing best management practices in urban and agricultural settings, enhancing wastewater and stormwater infrastructure, and developing regional projects and conservation initiatives.
The success of a BMAP relies heavily on local input and collaboration, as it is crafted with the involvement of community stakeholders. Once finalized, BMAPs are adopted through Secretarial Order and carry legal weight. They utilize an adaptive management approach, allowing for gradual pollutant reductions while continuously monitoring and studying water quality and hydrological dynamics. Your participation is crucial!
