DELAWARE RIVER BASIN COMMISSION


Notice of Public Hearing and Business Meeting; August 11 and 
September 9, 2021

    Notice is hereby given that the Delaware River Basin Commission 
will hold a public hearing on Wednesday, August 11, 2021. A business 
meeting will be held the following month on Thursday, September 9, 
2021. Both the hearing and the business meeting are open to the public. 
Both meetings will be conducted remotely. Details about the remote 
platform and how to attend will be posted on the Commission's website, 
<a href="http://www.drbc.gov">www.drbc.gov</a>, no later than July 28, 2021 for the public hearing and no 
later than August 28, 2021 for the business meeting.
    Public Hearing. The Commission will conduct the public hearing 
remotely on August 11, 2021, commencing at 1:30 p.m. Hearing items will 
include draft dockets for withdrawals, discharges, and other projects 
that could have a substantial effect on the basin's water resources.
    The list of projects scheduled for hearing, including project 
descriptions, will be posted on the Commission's website, <a href="http://www.drbc.gov">www.drbc.gov</a>, 
in a long form of this notice at least ten days before the hearing 
date.
    Written comments on matters scheduled for hearing on August 11, 
2021 will be accepted through 5:00 p.m. on August 16, 2021.
    The public is advised to check the Commission's website 
periodically prior to the hearing date, as items scheduled for hearing 
may be postponed if additional time is needed to complete the 
Commission's review, and items may be added up to ten days prior to the 
hearing date. In reviewing docket descriptions, the public is also 
asked to be aware that the details of projects may change during the 
Commission's review, which is ongoing.
    Public Meeting. The public business meeting on September 9, 2021 
will begin at 10:30 a.m. and will include: Adoption of the Minutes of 
the Commission's February 25, 2021 Special Business meeting and June 9, 
2021 Business Meeting; announcements of upcoming meetings and events; a 
report on hydrologic conditions; reports by the Executive Director and 
the Commission's General Counsel; and consideration of any items for 
which a hearing has been completed or is not required.
    After all scheduled business has been completed and as time allows, 
the Business Meeting will be followed by up to one hour of Open Public 
Comment, an opportunity to address the Commission on any topic 
concerning management of the Basin's water resources outside the 
context of a duly noticed, on-the-record public hearing.
    There will be no opportunity for additional public comment for the 
record at the September 9 Business Meeting on items for which a hearing 
was completed on August 11 or a previous date. Commission consideration 
on September 9 of items for which the public hearing is closed may 
result in approval of the item (by docket or resolution) as proposed, 
approval with changes, denial, or deferral. When the Commissioners 
defer an action, they may announce an additional period for written 
comment on the item, with or without an additional hearing date, or 
they may take additional time to consider the input they have already 
received without requesting further public input. Any deferred items 
will be considered for action at a public meeting of the Commission on 
a future date.
    Advance Sign-Up for Oral Comment. Individuals who wish to comment 
on the record during the public hearing on August 11 or to address the 
Commissioners informally during the Open Public Comment portion of the 
meeting on September 9 as time allows, are asked to sign up in advance
