###### Delaware River Basin Commission

Notice is hereby given that the Delaware River Basin Commission will hold a public hearing on Wednesday, February 5, 2025. A business meeting will be held the following month on Wednesday, March 12, 2025. Both the hearing and the business meeting are open to the public, and both will be conducted virtually.

*Public Hearing.*                     The Commission will conduct the public hearing virtually on February 5, 2025, commencing at 1:30 p.m. Hearing items will include draft dockets for withdrawals, discharges, and other projects that could have a substantial effect on the basin's water resources. A list of the projects scheduled for hearing, including project descriptions, along with links to draft dockets, will be posted on the Commission's website,                     *www.drbc.gov,*                     in a long form of this notice at least ten days before the hearing date.                

Written comments on matters scheduled for hearing on February 5, 2025, will be accepted through 5:00 p.m. on Monday, February 10, 2025.

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

*Business Meeting.*                     The business meeting on March 12, 2025 will be held virtually commencing at 10:30 a.m. and will include: adoption of the Minutes of the Commission's December 5, 2024 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. The agenda is expected to include consideration of the draft dockets for withdrawals, discharges, and other projects that are subjects of the public hearing on February 5, 2025.                

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 off the record 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 March 12, 2025 business meeting on items for which a hearing was completed on February 5, 2025 or a previous date. Commission consideration on March 12, 2025 of items for which the public hearing is closed may result in approval of the item 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                           ( print page 3809)                        meeting of the Commission on a future date.
