Regional Board Conclusion:	Region 9 data was not included in the 2012 Integrated Report so all decisions are carried over from the 2010 listing cycle. Regional Board Conclusion: In 2006, 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 San Clemente HA 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 Clemente HA, at Poche Beach' is one of the sampling locations for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, 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. This pollutant is being considered for removal from the section 303(d) list under section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. Under this section 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. One thousand three hundred ninety two beach posting days were recorded for this stretch of Pacific Ocean shoreline beach. In LOE 28491, 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 removing this water segment-pollutant combination from the section 303(d) list. 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. One thousand three hundred ninety two days out of 2555 days were recorded for beach postings and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Pursuant to section 4.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are met. . State Board Review and Conclusion: The San Diego Regional Board staff requested the State Water Board staff to conduct an additional evaluation of the San Diego Region AB411 beach data in the San Diego Water Board's transmittal letter to the State Board. State Water Board staff assessed the dry weather data for this beach and revised the recommendation to be Delist based on section 3.3 and 4.3 of the Listing Policy. The revised recommendation is as follows: In 2006, 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 San Clemente HA 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 Clemente HA, at Poche Beach' is one of the sampling locations for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, and is considered to be part of the original listing.

This pollutant is being considered for removal from the section 303(d) list under section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. Under this section 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. One thousand three hundred ninety two beach posting days were recorded for this stretch of Pacific Ocean shoreline beach. The coastal beach at this water segment is identified as an AB411 beach. To comply with the requirements of AB411 the dry weather data collected during the time frame of April 1st to October 31st is assessed using a four percent exceedance percentage, as described in section 3.3 and 4.3 of the Listing Policy. An assessment for dry weather single sample and the geometric mean calculation was conducted and two additional lines of evidence are available in the administrative record. Twenty-eight of 456 single samples and zero of 42 geometric mean calculations exceeded the criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit based on the application of a four percent exceedance percentage (AB411) to section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. In LOE 28491, 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 to support removing this water segment-pollutant combination from the section 303(d) list. 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. One thousand three hundred ninety two days out of 2555 days were recorded for beach postings and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Twenty-eight of 456 single samples exceeded the criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit based on the application of a four percent exceedance percentage (AB411) to section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. 5. Zero of 42 geometric mean calculations exceeded the criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit based on the application of a four percent exceedance percentage (AB411) to section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. 6. Pursuant to section 4.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are met.

Regional Board Decision Recommendation:	Region 9 data was not included in the 2012 Integrated Report so all decisions are carried over from the 2010 listing cycle. After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are being exceeded.

State Board Staff Review of Regional Board Conclusion and Recommendation:	. State Board Review and Conclusion: The San Diego Regional Board staff requested the State Water Board staff to conduct an additional evaluation of the San Diego Region AB411 beach data in the San Diego Water Board's transmittal letter to the State Board.

State Board Decision Recommendation:	Region 9 data was not included in the 2012 Integrated Report so all decisions are carried over from the 2010 listing cycle. The SWRCB staff does not concur with RWQCB staff recommendation that the water-body pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list. After review of the available data and information, SWRCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are not exceeded. Section 3.3 of the Listing policy states that "Postings that are not backed by water quality data shall not be used to support placement of a water segment on the section 303(d) list." The results of an assessment for Fecal Coliform data does not support the listing based upon the use of beach postings information. Assessments for total (dry and wet weather) samples at a ten percent exceedance percentage and dry weather (AB411) samples at a four percent exceedance percentage under section 4.3 of the Listing Policy support a Decision to Delist the water body-pollutant combination from the section 303(d) List.

Environmental Conditions:

Comparisons were made for all data and data associated with storm events. A storm event was 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.

DECISION ID	30201	Region 9
Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, at Poche Beach

Pollutant:	Enterococcus
Final Listing Decision:	Do Not Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	Do Not Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2010)
Revision Status	Original
Sources:	Source Unknown
Expected TMDL Completion Date:	2019
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	Region 9 data was not included in the 2012 Integrated Report so all decisions are carried over from the 2010 listing cycle. In 2006, 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 San Clemente HA 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 Clemente HA, at Poche Beach' is one of the sampling locations for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, 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. This pollutant is being considered for removal from the section 303(d) list under section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. Under this section 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. One hundred forty-three of samples exceed the water quality objective for enterococcus. The water body segment is identified as an AB411 beach and data collected during the time frame of April 1st to October 31st (dry weather) is assessed using a four percent exceedance percentage (sections 3.3 and 4.3 of Listing Policy). There are two additional lines of evidence for dry weather single sample and geometric mean calculations. One hundred and twenty eight of 454 samples and 24 of 42 geo-metric mean calculations exceeded the recreational use single sample and geo-metric mean criteria, respectively. This exceeds the allowable limit in Table 4.2 (at a four percent exceedance percentage AB411) of 44 and five, respectively. In LOE 28494, 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 removing this water segment-pollutant combination from the section 303(d) list. 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. One hundred forty-three of 490 samples exceeded the enterococcus water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. One hundred forty-three Of 490 samples exceeded the enterococcus recreational use water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable limit listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 5. One hundred and twenty eight Of 454 samples exceeded the enterococcus recreational use water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable limit listed in Table 4.2 (at a four percent exceedance percentage AB411) of the Listing Policy 6. Twenty-four of 42 geo-metric mean calculations exceeded the recreational use geo-metric mean criteria. This exceeds the allowable limit in Table 4.2 (at a four percent exceedance percentage AB411). 7. Pursuant to section 4.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are met.

Regional Board Decision Recommendation:	Region 9 data was not included in the 2012 Integrated Report so all decisions are carried over from the 2010 listing cycle. After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are being exceeded.

DECISION ID	30071	Region 9
Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, at Poche Beach

Pollutant:	Total Coliform
Final Listing Decision:	Do Not Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	Do Not Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2010)
Revision Status	Original
Sources:	Source Unknown
Expected TMDL Completion Date:	2019
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	Region 9 data was not included in the 2012 Integrated Report so all decisions are carried over from the 2010 listing cycle. In 2006, 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 San Clemente HA 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 Clemente HA, at Poche Beach' is one of the sampling locations for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, 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. This pollutant is being considered for removal from the section 303(d) list under section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. Under this section a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status. Six lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. One hundred eighty nine of samples exceed the water quality objective for Shellfish Harvesting. The coastal beach at this water segment is identified as an AB411 beach. To comply with the requirements of AB411 the dry weather data collected during the time frame of April 1st to October 31st is assessed using a four percent exceedance percentage, as described in section 3.3 and 4.3 of the Listing Policy. An assessment for dry weather single sample and the geometric mean calculation was conducted and two additional lines of evidence are available in the administrative record. Four of 456 single samples and zero of 42 geometric mean calculations exceeded the criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit based on the application of a four percent exceedance percentage (AB411) to section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. In LOEs 28485 and 28488, 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 removing this water segment-pollutant combination from the section 303(d) list. 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. One hundred eighty-nine of 490 samples exceeded the Shellfish Harvesting water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Four of 456 single samples exceeded the criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit based on the application of a four percent exceedance percentage (AB411) to section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. 5. Zero of 42 geometric mean calculations exceeded the criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit based on the application of a four percent exceedance percentage (AB411) to section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. 6. Pursuant to section 4.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are met.

Regional Board Decision Recommendation:	Region 9 data was not included in the 2012 Integrated Report so all decisions are carried over from the 2010 listing cycle. After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are being exceeded.

State Board Staff Review of Regional Board Conclusion and Recommendation:

State Board Decision Recommendation:	Region 9 data was not included in the 2012 Integrated Report so all decisions are carried over from the 2010 listing cycle. After review of the available data and information, SWRCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are being exceeded.
