=17 <br /> recommendations for potential rule changes after its December 2023 submittals and plans to <br /> coordinate this effort with DWR. Rules will be amended to be consistent with the General Statutes <br /> and Session Laws which apply to the program. <br /> Status of the UNRBA Recommendations <br /> This Concepts and Principles Document was developed based on input from the PFC and the Board <br /> of Directors, as well as input from external stakeholders, including staff from DWR and <br /> representatives from agriculture, DOT, and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). These <br /> discussions identified several program components to guide development of the revised Falls Lake <br /> Rules. Many program components are designed to promote flexible implementation of the rules. <br /> These concepts and principles have been distilled into an updated set of Consensus Principles <br /> (called Consensus Principles II)for consideration by the governing bodies of the UNRBA members <br /> (e.g., county commissioners, town councils, city councils, utility boards). Once the individual <br /> governing bodies have signed the Consensus Principles II and endorsed the UNRBA <br /> recommendations for the revised nutrient management strategy, the UNRBA will submit these <br /> documents to the EMC and DWR. <br /> As the rules readoption process unfolds, discussions among UNRBA members and other external <br /> stakeholders will continue. Additional recommendations and responses to stakeholder feedback will <br /> be considered during this process. <br /> viii <br />
