###### Delaware River Basin Commission

Notice is hereby given that the Delaware River Basin Commission will hold a public hearing on Wednesday, August 15, 2018. A business meeting will be held the following month on Thursday, September 13, 2018. The hearing and meeting are open to the public. The public hearing in August will be held at the West Trenton Volunteer Fire Company Ballroom, 40 West Upper Ferry Road, West Trenton, New Jersey. The business meeting in September will be held at the RiverWinds Community Center, 1000 RiverWinds Drive, Thorofare, New Jersey.

*Public Hearing.*                     The public hearing on August 15, 2018 will begin at 1:30 p.m. Hearing items subject to the Commission's review will include draft dockets for withdrawals, discharges, and other projects that could have a substantial effect on the basin's water resources.                

                    The list of projects scheduled for hearing, including project descriptions, will be posted on the Commission's website,                     *www.drbc.net,*                     in a long form of this notice at least ten days before the hearing date.                

Written comments on matters scheduled for hearing on August 15 will be accepted through 5:00 p.m. on August 20.

The public is advised to check the Commission's website periodically prior to the hearing date, as items scheduled for hearing may be postponed if additional time is deemed necessary to complete the Commission's review, and items may be added up to ten days prior to the hearing date. In reviewing docket descriptions, the public is also asked to be aware that project details commonly change in the course of the Commission's review, which is ongoing.

*Public Meeting.*                     The public business meeting on September 13, 2018 will begin at 10:30 a.m. and will include: Adoption of the Minutes of the Commission's June 13, 2018 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.                

After all scheduled business has been completed and as time allows, the Business Meeting will be followed by up to one hour of Open Public Comment, an opportunity to address the Commission on any topic concerning management of the basin's water resources outside the context of a duly noticed, on-the-record public hearing.

There will be no opportunity for additional public comment for the record at the September 13 Business Meeting on items for which a hearing was completed on August 15 or a previous date. Commission consideration on September 13 of items for which the public hearing is closed may result in approval of the item (by 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.
