Quick Update on NNC Issues - View Report Here  FSA files Brief with US Supreme Court - On November 14, 2011 FSA filed an “Friend of the Court” brief with the US Supreme Court supporting Los Angeles County’s request to have its appeal of a decision of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals heard.  The Circuit Court had ruled that an MS4 permittee is responsible for excess stormwater discharges containing pollutants at levels above permit limits, even if those pollutants originated outside of the county's municipal separate storm sewer system.  While not setting precedent, the decision of the Court of Appeals is persuasive in other jurisdictions (including Florida) and the FSA leadership authorized the filing with the Supreme Court.
