WQIA Forms

Applicants proposing land disturbance activities in Resource Protection Areas (RPAs) are required to submit to the local government a Water Quality Impact Assessment (WQIA). Local government staff use information in the WQIA to evaluate the environmental impacts of proposed land disturbances, development, and/or redevelopment within the locally designated RPA. These forms, developed by DCR - CBLA staff, may need to be amended to include site-specific conditions or to be consistent with local ordinances and conditions.
