EXHIBIT A:
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE
CONTINUING PLANNING AGENCY (SEMCOG)
The Southeast Michigan Council of Governments, as the Continuing
Planning Agency, will be annually updating the Water Quality Management
Plan ("the Plan") to meet the clean water goals of the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act Amendments and to insure that municipalities
within Southeast Michigan are eligible for federal . grant assistance.
It will undertake those planning and analysis activities, at the
regional level that are necessary for the Plan update process. In
this role, the Council of Governments will assist local units of
government in their detailed planning and implementation work by
making available a variety of planning services to communities including
continuing analysis and delineation of specific water quality problems
and the development of data bases, maps, guidelines, and other planning
techniques for use by local governments in protecting and improving
their water resources. Specifically, in the initial year's planning
program the Council will be undertaking the following activities:
A. Reassessment, and as appropriate, revision and refinement of
the Water Quality Management Plan for Southeast Michigan.
B. An identification of the water quality impacts of various general
categories of land uses and types of land use patterns.
C. The identification of measures leading to the establishment of an
industrial waste information clearinghouse for the region to
facilitate the recycling and reuse of industrial waste products.
D. .The refinement of a financing mechanism which could distribute the
local share of the costs of continuing areawide planning and over-
view more equitably throughout the planning area.
E. The development of a set of standards for use as a guide by local
units of government in reviewing the water quality impact of proposed
development.
F. The development of maps and other guidance for use by local land
use planners in assessing the soil limitations for development
with septic systems.
G. The preparation of an updated map which establishes generalized
areas to be served with sanitary sewers during defined time
increments over the next twenty years.
H. The preparation of development guidelines for use by local governments
for preventing degradation of water quality in urban fringe areas
characterized by mixed land use and rapid change.
•
. ' Exhibit A
I. The delineation of specific agricultural pollution problem areas
for guidance to Soil Conservation Districts in field investigation
: of local problem areas.
The identification of economic impacts and costs relative to
water quality benefits that will result from the implementation
of various types and levels of controls and management practices.
K. The provision of guidance and assistance to designated manage-
ment agencies concerning their water quality management
responsibilities, including assistance in developing local im-
plementation strategies and obtaining funding necessary for
Plan implentation.
L. The performance of vari
administrativ.E.Zations relative to ----- the organization and implem , on of the Areawide Uater Quality
Board, including the preparation of its initial workplan and
budget.
M. The development of an environmental education strategy designod
to raise the region's level of awareness regarding water quality
concerns, including the identification of agencies' responsibili-
ties in the implementation of educational programs.
N. As necessary, hearing appeals of decisions made by the Areawide
Vater Quality Board regarding the Plan.
EXHIBIT B:
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE AREANIDE UATER QUALITY BOARD
EXHIBIT B:
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE AREAWIDE WATER QUALITY BOARD
The Areawide Water Quality Board's (AWQB) principal responsibilities under
the Plan are to monitor and oversee all aspects of Plan implementation, to
coordinate inter-agency management activities, to assist local communities
in water pollution control efforts, and to serve as an advocate of local
concerns at the state and federal levels. In the first year's program,
much of the AWU's efforts will be organizational in nature. However,
once fully established, the AWQB will perform a variety of functions and
administrative services including:
A. Monitor and assist Designated Management Agencies in performing
their Plan implementation responsibilities.
B. Monitor the implementation of programs and practices for point
and nonpoint source water pollution control.
C. Review and comment on water quality related federal grant
applications.
D. Review and comment on applications for water quality related state
permits and licenses to assure their isSuance in conformance with
the Plan. Mork with applicants as necessary to achieve Plan
compliance.
E. Review proposed major development plans for water quality impacts
and prepare and forward comments to appropriate state and local
agencies.
F. Assist, to the extent feasible, Designated ManagemeNt Agencies in
obtaining funding necessary for Water Quality Management Plan
implementation.
G. Hear and attempt to resolve conflicts related to the Plan.
H. Sample water quality for Plan compliance.
1. Recommend Plan modifications to the Continuing Planning Agency.
J. Review local plans and zoning ordinances upon request by local
governments to insure that ground and surface waters are adequately
protected from impact of future unsewered residential/development.
Advise local communities of planning or zoning changes necessary
to protect surface and groundwater.
• Exhibit B
K. Establish a regional data base 'and cbnduct, in cooperation with
county health departments, an analysis of septic system treatment
efficiencies and failures.
L. Consider support of state legislation to correct statutory and
management deficiencies relative to reducing pollution from
sanitary landfills including modifications fostering a more
precise division of responsibilities among involved agencies.
M. Review site plans of proposed landfill sites for water quality
impact and prepare and forward co7!:ments to appropriate federal,
state, and local agencies. -
N. In cooperation with responsibile state and local agencies,
encourage and, where necessary, initiate water quality monitoring
on the identified landfill sites which are determined to have
a high potential water quality impact.
O. Support legislation to correct deficiencies in the present
system regulating the handling and disposal of liquid industrial
wastes.
P. Serve as a regional ombudsman for water quality related problems
with the state.
Q. Evaluate the effectiveness of voluntary farm planning methods
and determine the need for enforcement of agricultural land
management practices.
