Establishes a stakeholder group in the Oswego river basin
Bill A 7377 creates a stakeholder group to coordinate water releases in the Oswego River basin, directly affecting flood control entities, community groups, and the Department of Environmental Conservation. The group must form within six months and review flood storage methods and watershed releases, then recommend a regulatory structure for communication and coordination during high-flow events. Key provisions require the group to consider options like continuing the stakeholder group, mandating coordination through legislation, or establishing a new water-regulating district. The bill aims to improve flood management by standardizing water release practices across the basin.
