The total maximum daily load coordinator positions shall, among other duties, assist the department to meet federal requirements for establishing total maximum daily loads in Hawaii. This includes quantifying waste load allocations and load allocation limits on pollutant loading of Hawaii inland and marine waters and developing technically based plans for achieving the State's stated water quality goals. The positions shall be appointed by the director without regard to chapter 76. These positions shall be funded by federal grants to the State under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972, P.L. 92-500 (33 U.S.C. §§1251-1387), as amended."
SECTION 2. New statutory material is underscored.
