Watershed advisory groups shall, as described in this chapter, consult with the director and participate in the development of each TMDL and any supporting subbasin assessment for water bodies within the watershed, and shall develop and recommend actions needed to effectively control sources of pollution. In carrying out the provisions of this section, the director and the watershed advisory groups shall employ all means of public involvement deemed necessary or required in chapter 52, title 67, Idaho Code, and shall cooperate fully with the public involvement or planning processes of other appropriate public agencies.
