Presentation transcript:

Verification Requests Citizen Advisory Committee –Repeated requests for BMP verification Chesapeake Executive Order Strategy –USDA and EPA commitment to develop/implement mechanism for tracking/reporting ‘voluntary conservation practices’ by July 2012 NRC’s Ches Bay Independent Evaluation Report –Five science-based conclusions focused on ‘accurate tracking of BMPs’ Chesapeake Bay TMDL’s Appendix S –EPA expectations for offset credit verification 1

Verification Work Underway NEIEN –Successful submission of 2010 progress data NACD –2-year project for development of data collection/ verification protocols for non-cost shared ag practices USGS MOU’s with NRCS/FSA –Improving access to federal cost shared practice data USDA Office of Environmental Markets –Synthesis of verification of environ. credits Responses to NRC CB Indep. Evaluation Report –MB’s recommended responses sent to PSC 2

Proposal to Partnership Build and work integrated set of recommendations up through CBP Partnership (FWG: Feb-Mar) –Source Workgroups WQGIT MB PSC Address full array of practices across all sources –Agricultural lands, forest lands, developed lands, on- site treatment systems, wastewater dischargers, stream corridors, tidal shorelines Factor in innovative approaches taken by jurisdictions, local municipalities, and conservation districts –Recognize unique circumstances across the partnership and that one size does not fit all 3

Verification Framework Verification principles –Partnership agreement on principles to guide the jurisdictions’ development of verification programs Source sector-specific verification protocols –Developed through the WQGIT’s source sector workgroups and approved by the Partnership Verification panel –Verification experts charged by the Partnership to review/make recommendations on jurisdictions’ proposed verification programs (aka BMP panels) 4

Draft Verification Principles Partnership support Clear definition of verification Credible/defensible Consistent application across source sectors Build off cost-share verification protocols No lowest common denominator 5
