Draft Technical Guidance—Substantive Revision

 Draft TGD: Substantive Revision. DEP ID: 394-2000-001. Title: Municipal Reference Document: Guidance for the Implementation of the Chapter 85 Bluff Recession and Setback Regulations. Description: The Bluff Recession and Setback Act of 1980 (BRSA) and 25 Pa. Code Chapter 85 (relating to bluff recession and setback) regulations establish the Lake Erie bluff setback program. Lake Erie bluff setbacks are designated within formally established Bluff Recession Hazard Areas and are implemented and enforced, with the Department oversight, by the local municipalities. Chapter 85 was revised by the Environmental Quality Board in 2009 and the BRSA was amended by the Pennsylvania General Assembly by Act 72 of 2011. This draft revised technical guidance document reflects these recent changes and provides more comprehensive, narrative-style guidance for municipalities and bluff landowners on the implementation of the Lake Erie Bluff Recession and Setback program.
