| The San Diego Water Board completed several other important projects in Fiscal Year 2013-14. In particular, the Board adopted a practical and measureable approach to achieve water quality in Loma Alta Slough through a non-TMDL solution that incorporates nutrient numeric endpoints. This achievement leveraged collaborations with cities, researchers and State agencies that also saw the publication of new indices of stream health based upon algae and an assessment of southern California estuaries that showed eutrophication is a major threat to beneficial uses. The San Diego Water Board also adopted an Amendment of a Master Reclamation Permit at Camp Pendleton allows the United States Marine Corps to increase their production of recycled water up to 7.5 million gallons per day, a 50 percent increase. In addition, improved regulatory oversight of many discharges were achieved through the adoption of Waivers of Waste Discharge Requirements for 12 classes of low threat discharges and the adoption of another comprehensive permit for a military base (Pt. Loma) that combines three prior permits. In addition, the lack of dedicated funding has not stopped the regulation of agricultural and nursery operations that contribute pollutants to downstream MS4s and receiving waters. This past fiscal year also saw the adoption of a revised permit for the U.S. International Boundary and Water Commission International Wastewater Treatment Facility (IWTF) Plant. This action was only possible after the successful attainment of secondary treatment standards at the IWTF and the conclusion of a lawsuit brought by the Board against the IBWC. In the dismissal hearing, presiding Judge Barry T. Moskowitz praised the San Diego Water Board and IBWC for achieving the goals expected by the public of good government service. | |||
