The DRBC thanks everyone who attended, provided comment at Wednesday's business meeting, held at the Tusten Theatre in Narrowsburg, NY. In total, 34 Dockets, 6 Resolutions & 2 Resolutions for the Minutes were approved. View the meeting recap at https://lnkd.in/ejZT3GM; approved items still missing will be added once available.
One item approved Wednesday was a resolution approving amendments to the DRBC's Rules of Practice and Procedure (RPP). In part, this rulemaking amended the RPP to give clarity & better align the DRBC's project review procedures with current practice.

In recent years, the DRBC has been more intentional about how and where we hold our quarterly public business meetings. We've embraced technology to offer virtual meetings, allowing many more people in the Basin to participate, and we hold one meeting a year in-person (with hybrid option for virtual viewing), rotating the location among our four basin states. By meeting in-person in different corners of our great, diverse Basin, the Commission can showcase how we conduct our business to different partners, stakeholders & members of the public. We also enjoy having the opportunity to learn more about that region’s connection to the Basin’s shared water resources & about local communities, to celebrate with local partners and to strengthen our relationships with elected officials. We thank the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance for hosting our meeting, the Upper Delaware Council for their support and the entire upper Delaware Community for having us.
Please stay tuned - More info and photos to come!
