SB 399 North Carolina Senate · 2025-2026 Session

Study Jordan Lake Nutrient Managem't Strategy.

SB 399 directs North Carolina's Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) to study Jordan Lake's existing nutrient management strategies. The study requires DEQ to review water quality data, compare trends to current nutrient reduction efforts, examine natural nutrient conditions, and evaluate if current strategies improve water quality or require updated regulations. The DEQ must report findings to environmental commissions by January 31, 2027, with interim updates in 2026. This bill does not change current regulations but assesses whether existing approaches effectively protect Jordan Lake's water quality.
