Notes:

1 The "Hydroelectric Industry" membership category is expanded from the authorizing resolution to include both Hydropower and Off-Stream Storage operations. 

2 At the time of committee authorization, this organization was named the "Water Resources Agency for New Castle County, Delaware."

3 This membership category includes one municipal or county emergency management representative from each of the four basin states.

4 No individual media representative was selected at the time of committee authorization.  The DRBC communications manager serves the role as the media representative/coordinator. 

In the event of a vote, each of the member organizations will cast one vote only.
