Pebble Beach Company and three environmental nonprofits announced a landmark partnership Thursday to safeguard water quality in the Carmel Bay, a state-designated Area of Special Biological Significance (ASBS), officials announced.
In collaboration with California Coastkeeper Alliance, The Otter Project, and Monterey Waterkeeper, the company will pursue the nation’s first Clean Water Act permit specifically for golf course discharges into an ASBS.
The initiative includes enhanced water quality monitoring and updated best management practices for both dry-weather and stormwater discharges, a press release issued Thursday noted.
