Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Program
Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) are water quality restoration plans required by the Federal Clean Water Act (CWA) to ensure the attainment of water quality standards in impaired surface water bodies. Impaired surface waters are identified on the CWA 303(d) list. Section 303(d) listings for the Lahontan Region begin on Row 2737 of the 2010 Section 303(d) List Excel File.
Below are the TMDL development projects that the Lahontan Regional Board is currently working on or has completed. Projects have links to documents or other information available for viewing or downloading.
If you have questions about the Lahontan Region's 303(d) List or the listed projects below, please contact Richard Booth.
