MAR20.DOC Page 6 <br /> Ms. Evans updated the Wetheads on the implementation of legislation passed in Oregon in 1995 directing DSL to <br /> report back to the Legislature on the possible EPA assumption of the 404 program. A task force was formed to <br /> study the matter, and it raised several issues related to the possibility. A bill was introduced to extend the process <br /> to the next legislative session to give the task force time to consider a State programmatic general permit approach. <br /> Ms. Evans said that she had discussed the impact on the WCP category with Erik Metz, who indicated the State <br /> was considering developing an SPGP program to streamline the process. She had raised the question of whether <br /> there was a fill threshold where a site permit would be approved if it was include in a WCP. <br /> Mr. Gordon endorsed the SGPG approach and suggested that a follow -up item be included on the next agenda. <br />
