NEW DRAFT PERMIT @YOUR LIBRARY!

Submitted by Carolyn Dial on Tue, 12/01/2009 - 3:12pm

Because the North Channel Library receives new draft permits for review, we want to share one with you. Draft TPDES Permit - Harris County Municipal Utility District No. 285 dated November 2009 is now available for your review. This and other permits are kept in the Ready Reference shelving area near the Consumer Reports magazines and books. What caught my eye on this draft is that it involves Carpenter's Landing Bayou-our next door neighbor! If you are interested in the water quality of our local bayou, you might want to read this draft. A comment period is now in effect on this amendment to the original permit granted to M.U.D. 285-Plant 2. Stop by to review this important document soon!
