Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision: | Do Not Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2012) |
Revision Status | Revised |
Sources: | Source Unknown |
TMDL Name: | Bacteria Impaired Waters I (creeks and beach shorelines) |
TMDL Project Code: | 169 |
Date TMDL Approved by USEPA: | 06/22/2011 |
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution: | Pollutant |
Regional Board Conclusion: | This pollutant is being considered for removal from the CWA section 303(d) List under section 4.2 of the Listing Policy. Under this section a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status.
Fourteen lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. With the latest data, 95 of 457 samples exceed the water quality objective for total coliform of a SSM of 230/100ml for the protection of SHELL beneficial use. 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 CWA 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. With the latest data, 95 of 457 samples exceed the water quality objective for total coliform of a SSM of 230/100ml for the protection of SHELL beneficial use 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. |
Regional Board Decision Recommendation: | 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 Review of Regional Board Conclusion and Recommendation: | |
State Board Decision Recommendation: | After review of this Regional Board decision, SWRCB staff recommend the decision be approved by the State Board. |

For the 2008 assessment , the 2006 listed coastline 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Dieguito HU' was split into smaller segments and each represents an area near the sampling location of the data being assessed. This segment 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Dieguito HU, at San Dieguito Lagoon Mouth at San Dieguito River Beach' is one of the sampling locations. This LOE is a copy of the 2006 listing placeholder LOE for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Dieguito HU and is considered by the Regional Board to be applicable to this more specific segment formed from the split. |

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: | For the period from January 2001 to December 2007, there were 73 beach advisory days for this section of shoreline. Bacteriological samples are collected on a weekly basis at ocean and bay locations in San Diego County. When a bacteriological sample exceeds water quality standards, signs are posted indicating that an advisory for waters have exceeded public health standards.
Data and information on the number of beach posting were summarized by the County of San Diego in their annual San Diego County Beach Closure and Advisory Reports. The reporting period was from January 2001 - December 2007. Data used was the number of days the beach was advisories were issued when the ocean or bay failed to meet the bacteriological standards. |
