    Notice is hereby given that the Delaware River Basin Commission

    Public Hearing. The public hearing on March 11, 2014 will begin at 
1:30 p.m. Hearing items will include draft dockets for withdrawals, 
discharges and other water-related projects subject to the Commission's 
review, and a resolution to adopt the Commission's capital and 
operating budgets for fiscal year 2015. The list of projects scheduled 
for hearing, including project descriptions, will be posted on the 
Commission's Web site, www.drbc.net, in a long form of this notice at 
least ten days before the hearing date. Written comments on draft 
dockets and resolutions scheduled for hearing on March 11 will be 
accepted through the close of the hearing that day. After the hearing 
on all scheduled matters has been completed, there will be an 
opportunity for public dialogue.
    Because hearings on particular projects may be postponed to allow 
additional time for the commission's review, interested parties are 
advised to check the Web site periodically prior to the hearing date. 
Any postponements will be duly noted there.
    Public Meeting. The public meeting on March 12, 2014 will begin at 
12:15 p.m. and will consist of a conference session followed by a 
business meeting. The conference session will include a presentation by 
a representative from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the North 
Atlantic Coast Comprehensive Study for reducing flood risk to coastal 
populations and promoting resilient coastal communities.
    The business meeting will include the following items: adoption of 
the Minutes of the Commission's December 4, 2013 business meeting, 
announcements of upcoming meetings and events, a report on hydrologic 
conditions, reports by the Executive Director and the Commission's 
General Counsel, and consideration of any items for which a hearing has 
been completed or is not required.
    There will be no opportunity for additional public comments at the 
March 12 business meeting on hearing items for which the hearing was 
completed on March 11 or a previous date. Commission consideration on 
March 12 of items for which the public hearing is closed may result in 
either approval of the item (docket or resolution) as proposed, 
approval with changes, denial, or deferral. When the Commissioners 
defer an action, they may announce an additional period for written 
comment on the item, with or without an additional hearing date, or 
they may take additional time to consider the input they have already 
received without requesting further public input. Any deferred items 
will be considered for action at a public meeting of the Commission on 
a future date.
