To Improve The Region's Quality of Life, Through Collaborative Planning Efforts with NEFCO's Area Governments, in Order to Ensure:
- Environmental Quality
- Orderly Growth
- Economic and Community Development
The Northeast Ohio Four County Regional Planning and Development Organization (NEFCO) was formed in 1974 as a regional council of governments by the elected officials within Portage, Stark, Summit and Wayne Counties. NEFCO was created as a voluntary organization to enable local officials to discuss problems facing the Region and to develop strategies to cope with them. NEFCO also serves as a forum through which local, state and federal planning programs can be more effectively coordinated.
Notice is hereby given that the Director of Environmental Protection is proposing to update water quality management plans, as required by Sections 303 and 208 of the Clean Water Act. These plans describe and promote efficient and comprehensive programs for controlling water pollution from point and nonpoint sources in a defined geographic area. This update includes updated 208 Plans from Areawide Councils of Governments including NEFCO. The public comment period will run until 5:00 p.m. on May 9, 2012. A public hearing will be held at 10:00 a.m. on May 9, 2012, at the Ohio EPA Central Office. Click on the document below for more information.
