Organized in the 1970s, the State Water Quality Advisory Committee advises agencies that receive funding under the federal Clean Water Act from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on ways to improve and protect water quality in Maryland (Federal Regulations 40 CFR, Part 25), and on all matters of statewide water quality significance. Among the agencies so advised are the Department of the Environment, the Department of Natural Resources, and any Maryland agency receiving funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Some thirty-two members compose the Committee. They are appointed jointly by the Secretary of the Environment and the Secretary of Natural Resources to three-year terms.
