Section 1. INTRODUCTION

Subsection 1.5 Updating

Section 311(j)(4)(C)(viii) of CWA requires that Area Contingency Plans be updated periodically by the Area Committee. For national consistency, it was determined that ACPs would be updated annually for 5 years, starting January 1, 1995, and once every 5 years thereafter. This document may be updated more frequently, as policy changes require.
