Who We Are
The Department of Environmental Quality water programs establish water quality standards; assess water quality; provide regulatory oversight for all public water supplies; issue permits to regulate the discharge of industrial and municipal wastewaters; and monitor state water resources for water quality, the quantity and quality of aquatic habitat, the health of aquatic communities, and compliance with state laws. The bureau is responsible for plan review and approval for public water supplies; wastewater collection and treatment facilities; campground and public swimming pool construction; and manufactured housing site approval for water, sanitary sewer, and drainage.
