NEW! TetraTech is developing a Jordan Jursidictional Allocation Model to address Section 3(d)(2)b. of Session Law 2009-216 (see NSAB's Duties below). Please click here to visit the Triangle J Council of Government's website for information on this Model. NSAB's Annual Reports to the Secretary NSAB's Purpose: Session Law 2009-216, in addition to setting requirements for stormwater from existing development in the Jordan Lake Watershed, required the formation of a Nutrient Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) to improve on the tools needed to address nutrient loading from existing development in any watershed, statewide, where nutrients are of concern. The Secretary of DENR was required to establish the Nutrient Scientific Advisory Board (NSAB) with up to 10 representatives with various qualifications by July 1, 2010. The primary role of the NSAB, as seen by the Division, is to provide advice and recommendations to the Division and local governments on ways to effectively meet existing development requirements of nutrient strategies in general and the Jordan Stage 2 requirements specifically. NSAB's Duties Section 3(d)(2)b. Develop method for estimating jursidication-scale loadings from existing development: baseline, post-baseline increases, and reduction goals. Section 4.(b) No later than July 1, 2012, the NSAB shall do all of the following: 1. Identify management strategies that can be used by local governments to reduce nutrient loading from existing development 2. Evaluate the feasibility, costs, and benefits of implementing the identified management strategies 3. Develop an accounting system for assignment of nutrient reduction credits for the identified management strategies 4. Identify the need for any improvements or refinements to modeling and other analytical tools used to evaluate water quality in nutrient-impaired waters and nutrient management strategies The Nutrient Scientific Advisory Board is required to give annual reports to the Secertary no later than July 1st of each year concerning its activities, findings, and recommendations.
