Longer timelines for emergency stream work

During a Governor-declared state of emergency, reviewers get more time. The onsite inspection must happen within 30 days after the emergency notice, not 20. Each team member’s written recommendation is due in 40 days, not 30. This can help agencies manage disasters but may slow approvals and repairs for landowners and communities.
