RECOMMENDATION
Approve an amendment to the August – December 2024 Transportation and Environment Committee Work Plan to drop the following item from the November 4, 2024, Transportation and Environment Committee meeting agenda.
Municipal Regional Stormwater National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit Annual Report.
Purpose: Provide an annual report on the Municipal Regional Stormwater National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit. (Environmental Services)
BACKGROUND
At the September 17, 2024, City Council meeting, the Environmental Services Department provided an update on the Stormwater Permit Annual Report, which entailed Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Citywide actions and current actions on the Direct Discharge Trash Control Program plan. Since a recent update was provided to the City Council, City staff determined additional time will be needed to provide an update on the Municipal Regional Stormwater National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit for the following reasons.
(1) A progress update that includes waterways was addressed in the Consolidated Annual Homelessness Report and Implementation Plan Status Report. This item was presented at the Neighborhood Services and Education Committee on October 10, 2024 and will be presented to full City Council on November 5, 2024.

(2) City staff will meet with the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board in December 2024 to provide a status update on the City’s efforts for the Direct Discharge Trash Control Program.
Staff believes additional time is needed to provide a full update to the Transportation and Environment Committee and City Council on accomplishments and regulatory compliance status.
The Environmental Services Department requests to drop this item from the current work plan with the expectation of adding it to the spring 2025 work plan. /s/
