We support the rules on wastewater disdharges and limits on <br />development densities, The most effective practice for highest water <br />protection is loaf density of development particularly in S Ljylcal and <br />21nitc areas, (Stormwater flowing across impervious surfaces such as <br />rooftops, parking lots and roads picks up pollutants that can result in serious <br />impact on water quality, Buffer zones are also needed,to prevent damage <br />from episodic events such as spills and extra heavy storm run -off,) <br />3. We support the new rules proposed for agriculture in WS -1 <br />watersheds.and WS -II Critical Areas and the proposal that these rules apply <br />thrnwgbnQt WS -II watersheds, not just in the WS -II Critical Areas. <br />The League urges citizens to be a part of strong local action in helping <br />develop watershed protection ordinances for the health and quality of life <br />for everyone. We must protect Water Quality_ now while there is still <br />OuaJity Water to Protect. <br />Nancy S. Mueller <br />Chair, Natural Resources <br />LWV of CH /C <br />
