updated often enough to ensure that they reflect current conditions in your protection zones.

The due date for submitting the next updated plan for springs is December 31, 2028.NotePlease include the actual dates that public education was distributed in all future updated plans.

schedule within 180 days after submittal if the plan is not disapproved. Be prepared to describe these efforts in your next update, which should include documentation of how the land
