Regional Board Conclusion: This pollutant is being considered for listing under section 3.1. Under section 3.1 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status. One line of evidence is available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. The RWQCB has adopted a cleanup order that will result in attainment of the water quality standard. The cleanup has progressed and the polluted sediments have been capped. The pre-cleanup conditions do not exist in 2005 since the water body has been diverted around the sediments. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification in favor of not placing this water segment-pollutant combination in the Water Quality Limited Segments portion of 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. The RWQCB has adopted a cleanup order that will result in attainment of the water quality standard.

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: Peyton Slough is identified as a toxic hot spot in the SWRCB Consolidated Toxic Hot Spots Cleanup Plan SWRCB Resolution No. 99-065). This plan is being implemented through a Cleanup and Abatement Order. San Francisco Bay RWQCB Order No. 01-094 provides direction for the remediation of the identified problems in Peyton Slough. The Order establishes requirements for a remedial design report and implementation schedule, documentation of the remediation of Peyton Slough, and five-year status report on the effectiveness of the implementation of the approved cleanup plan.

The order is being implemented. The first phase of the remediation has been completed. The slough channel has been realigned to a new channel east of the old alignment. The new channel is located in relatively uncontaminated wetland habitat. In 2005, an engineered cap was placed over the old channel so that the sediments were contained and are no longer part of this water body.

Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution: Pollutant
 
Regional Board Conclusion: This pollutant is being considered for listing under sections 2.2, 3.6, and 3.10 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.6 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status while under section 3.10, a minimum of two lines of evidence are needed to assess listing status. Four lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. Based on section 3.6 the site has significant sediment toxicity and the pollutant is likely to cause or contribute to the toxic effect. The benthic community is transitional and is probably not impacted by this pollutant. The RWQCB has adopted a cleanup order that will result in attainment of the water quality standard. 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 Being Attained category. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: 1. The sediment quality guideline used complies with the requirements of section 6.1.3 of the Policy. 2. The data used satisfies the data quality requirements of section 6.1.4 of the Policy. 3. The data used satisfies the data quantity requirements of section 6.1.5 of the Policy. 4. None of 6 samples exceeded the sediment guideline and these do not exceed the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.1 of the Listing Policy. 5. Pursuant to section 3.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are not met.

Regional Board Conclusion: This pollutant is being considered for listing under sections 2.2, 3.6, and 3.10 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.6 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status while under section 3.10, a minimum of two lines of evidence are needed to assess listing status. Four lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. Based on section 3.6 the site has significant sediment toxicity and the pollutant is not likely to cause or contribute to the toxic effect. The benthic community is transitional and is probably not be impacted by this pollutant. The RWQCB has adopted a cleanup order that will result in attainment of the water quality standard. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is insufficient justification in favor of placing this water segment-pollutant combination on the section 303(d) list in the Water Quality Limited Segments Being Attained category. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: 1. No sediment quality guideline is available that complies with the requirements of section 6.1.3 of the Policy. 2. The data used satisfies the data quality requirements of section 6.1.4 of the Policy. 3. The data used satisfies the data quantity requirements of section 6.1.5 of the Policy. 4. Pursuant to section 3.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are not met.

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: Peyton Slough is identified as a toxic hot spot in the SWRCB Consolidated Toxic Hot Spots Cleanup Plan SWRCB Resolution No. 99-065). This plan is being implemented through a Cleanup and Abatement Order. San Francisco Bay RWQCB Order No. 01-094 provides direction for the remediation of the identified problems in Peyton Slough. The Order establishes requirements for a remedial design report and implementation schedule, documentation of the remediation of Peyton Slough, and five-year status report on the effectiveness of the implementation of the approved cleanup plan.

The order is being implemented. The first phase of the remediation has been completed. The slough channel has been realigned to a new channel east of the old alignment. The new channel is located in relatively uncontaminated wetland habitat. In 2005, an engineered cap is being placed over the old channel. This will contain the sediments in place so they are no longer exposed to the environment.

Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution: Pollutant
 
Regional Board Conclusion: This pollutant is being considered for listing under section 3.1. Under section 3.1 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status. One line of evidence is available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. The RWQCB has adopted a cleanup order that will result in attainment of the water quality standard. The cleanup has progressed and the polluted sediments have been capped. The pre-cleanup conditions do not exist in 2005 since the water body has been diverted around the sediments. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification in favor of not placing this water segment-pollutant combination in the Water Quality Limited Segments portion of 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. The RWQCB has adopted a cleanup order that will result in attainment of the water quality standard. The cleanup has progressed and the polluted sediments have been capped. The pre-cleanup conditions do not exist in 2005. 4. Pursuant to section 3.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are not met.
 
Regional Board Decision Recommendation: This is a decision previously approved by the State Water Resources Control Board and the USEPA. No new data were assessed by the Regional Board for the current. The decision has not changed.
 
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.

Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution: Pollutant
 
Regional Board Conclusion: This pollutant is being considered for listing under sections 2.2, 3.6, and 3.10 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.6 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status while under section 3.10, a minimum of two lines of evidence are needed to assess listing status. Four lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. Based on section 3.6 the site has significant sediment toxicity and the pollutant is not likely to cause or contribute to the toxic effect. The benthic community is transitional and is probably not impacted by this pollutant. The RWQCB has adopted a cleanup order that will result in attainment of the water quality standard. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is insufficient justification in favor of placing this water segment-pollutant combination on the section 303(d) list in the Water Quality Limited Segments Being Attained category. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: 1. No sediment quality guideline is available that complies with the requirements of section 6.1.3 of the Policy. 2. The data used satisfies the data quality requirements of section 6.1.4 of the Policy. 3. The data used satisfies the data quantity requirements of section 6.1.5 of the Policy. 4. Pursuant to section 3.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are not met.
