Local Corrective Action Plans: Collection and Use of Valid and Reliable Data For Determining Factors Contributing To Noncompliance (2008)
This tool, developed by NECTAC, WRRC, and DAC, is designed to assist local programs/districts in identifying factors contributing to noncompliance for SPP/APR Indicators C-1, C-7, C-8, B-11, B-12 and B-15. By determining contributing factors appropriate strategies to ensure timely correction of noncompliance can be developed in local Corrective Action Plans.
