WPC Advisory Group
Water Planning Council Advisory Group
The Water Planning Council Advisory Group (WPCAG) is established under the authority of Section 25-33o(c) of the Connecticut General Statutes to assist in researching and analyzing water resource issues and advise on matters of interest. The statute requires that the WPCAG members be balanced between consumptive and non-consumptive water interests and the Water Planning Council (WPC) has adopted procedural rules for the group.
The Water Planning Council Advisory Group (WPCAG) meets on the third Tuesday of the month at 1:30 pm, unless otherwise noted. Instructions for joining a meeting are included in the agenda, which may be found on the State Agency Public Meeting Calendar. The WPCAG contact is Sheena McElrath (Sheena.McElrath@ct.gov)
