California AB763 establishes waste discharge requirements for timber harvesting and modifies notification procedures for timber harvesting plans.

California AB763 introduces new waste discharge requirements for timber harvesting operations. It mandates that regional boards approve, deny, or act on requests for coverage for timber harvesting operations within five working days of receiving a complete request. The bill also amends the Fish and Game Code to specify that a timber harvesting plan submission is deemed as notification, provided it includes detailed information such as a diagram of the operation, equipment details, and the period of operations.
