Environmental Management Commission
The Environmental Management Commission is a 15-member commission appointed by the Governor, the Senate Pro Tempore and the Speaker of the House. The Commission is responsible for adopting rules for the protection, preservation, and enhancement of the state's air and water resources. Commission members are chosen to represent various interests, including the medical profession, agriculture, engineering, fish and wildlife, groundwater, air, and water pollution control, municipal or county government and the public at large. The Commission oversees and adopts rules for several divisions of the Department of Environmental Quality, including the Divisions of Air Quality, Land Resources, Water Quality, and Water Resources.
The Environmental Management Commission generally meets on the second Thursday of January, March, May, July, September, and November. In addition, the Commission Chairman may call special meetings as necessary. The EMC has six committees (Air Quality, Groundwater & Waste Management, NPDES, Water Allocation, Water Quality, and Civil Penalty Remissions), which generally meet on the day before full commission meetings, with the exception of the Civil Penalty Remissions on full commission days. See the agendas, including scheduled locations, dates and times of meetings.
