Regional Board 9 - San Diego Region

Water Body Name:	Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, Oceanside Pier at Pier View Way
Water Body ID:	CAC9031100020090626150944
Water Body Type:	Coastal & Bay Shoreline


DECISION ID	17302

Pollutant:	Enterococcus
Final Listing Decision:	Do Not List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	New Decision
Revision Status	Revised
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Weight of Evidence:	This pollutant is being considered for placement on the section 303(d) list under section 3.3 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.3 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status. Four lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. Two of the samples exceed the water quality objective for enterococcus. In LOE 30247, the Regional Board calculated exceedances for samples taken only during storm events. This information was not used in determining listing decisions, but is of interest to the Regional Board and has been included as additional anecdotal information. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification against placing this water segment-pollutant combination on the section 303(d) list in the Water Quality Limited Segments category. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: 1. The data used satisfies the data quality requirements of section 6.1.4 of the Policy. 2. The data used satisfies the data quantity requirements of section 6.1.5 of the Policy. 3. Two of 173 samples exceeded the enterococcus water quality objective and this does not exceed the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Pursuant to section 3.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are not met.

RWQCB Board Decision / Staff Recommendation:	After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be placed on the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards are not being exceeded.

Data and Information Type:	PWS pathogen monitoring (ambient water)
Data Used to Assess Water Quality:	Beach monitoring data was collected by the County of San Diego from February 2004 through December 2007. A total of 173 single samples were collected with ten samples correlating with a storm event. One of the ten samples exceeded the single sample water quality objective. In 2006, Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU was listed for Indicator Bacteria. This information will not be used in determining a listing decision, but is of interest to the Regional Board and has been included here as additional anecdotal information.

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:	Single Sample Maximum: Enterococcus density shall not exceed 104 per 100 ml (SWRCB, 2005). Comparisons are also made for days with matching bacteria and storm event data. A storm event is defined as 0.2 inches of rainfall within a 72 hour period.

Analyzing only storm water bacteria data is important because the majority of beach monitoring data covers the months of April through October. The data may not capture the full impacts of seasonal storm events and high bacteria levels due to storm water runoff because much of the wet season for Southern California occurs in November through March.

In 2006, Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 San Luis Rey HU segment has been split into smaller segments and each represents an area near the sampling location of the data being assessed. Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, Oceanside Pier at Pier View Way' is one of the sampling locations for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, and is considered to be part of the original listing. For this 2008 assessment, the Regional Board has chosen to replace the indicator bacteria listing with separate assessments of the specific indicator bacteria, such as total coliform, fecal coliform, and enterococcus, for removal or non-removal from the 303(d) list.
