		<description><![CDATA[Press Release******Press Release******Press Release September 17, 2010 Pollution panel to weigh closing illegal loopholes in Washington’s building rules and strong controls for polluted runoff WHAT: The Pollution Control Hearings Board will begin a trial to determine whether to throw out Clark County’s “special lopsided deal” under the state stormwater code. The County’s plan allows harmful development without proper runoff controls. The hearing raises issues of statewide importance, including the question of whether state vesting laws should trump efforts to protect rivers, streams and Puget Sound. The vesting law allows developers to build projects under whatever rules are in place when they file a development application. This lets developers avoid any new rules that may be adopted later, even if the rules are adopted before anything is actually built. WHEN: September 28, 2010 – October 1, 2010 Time: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. WHERE: Pollution Control Hearings Board Environmental Hearings Offices—Room 301 1111 Israel Road S.W. Tumwater, WA 98501 CONTACTS: Jan Hasselman, Earthjustice, 206-719-6512 (cell) Dvija Michael Bertish, Rosemere Neighborhood Association, 360-281-4747 Brett VandenHeuvel, Columbia Riverkeeper, 503-348-2436 Mark Riskedahl, Northwest Environmental Defense Center, 503-768-6673 BACKGROUND: In February 2010, local residents and clean water advocates filed a challenge to Clark County’s on-going failure to protect rivers, streams and comply with laws limiting stormwater pollution. The county’s contested plan was developed with the Department of Ecology, the agency charged with regulating Clark County under state law and the federal Clean Water Act. The public interest law firm Earthjustice filed an appeal on behalf of the Rosemere Neighborhood Association, Columbia Riverkeeper, and the Northwest Environmental Defense Center asking the Washington State Pollution Control Hearings Board to throw out a recent agreement between Clark County and the Washington Department of Ecology. Local residents and clean water advocates argue the state authorized inadequate development standards that<a class="more-link" href="http://www.rosemerena.org/home/2010/09/17/press-release-pollution-control-board-hearing/">[Read More...]</a>]]></description>
