Agenda WELCOME INTRODUCTIONS STUDY OVERVIEW QUESTIONS COMMENTS

The Clean Water Act First Adopted 1972 Clean Water Goals: July 1, 1983 Wherever attainable, Fishable Swimmable water quality 1985 Eliminate discharge of pollutants

How Do We Get There ??? Two Step Approach Technology-Based Limits For All Point Sources Additional Water Quality Based Controls To Meet Water Quality Standards

Identifying Problem Areas Compare Monitoring Results To Water Quality Standards Set Priorities Compile Problem Areas And Priorities In the 303d List

Monitoring Data

Pollutant Sources Point Sources –Permitted discharge - Watonga –No-discharge facilities – 6 –CAFOs - 4

Pollutant Sources Non-Point Sources –Livestock –Pets –Failing Septic Tanks –Wildlife

TMDL Development Definition – the maximum load a stream can receive without violating standards TMDL = LA + WLA + MOS Load Duration Curve

Step #1: Flow Duration Curve

Load Duration Curve Step #2: Load = C * Flow * Standard

North Canadian River Fecal Coliform - 88% Reduction

North Canadian River Enterococci - 89% Reduction

Shell Creek Fecal Coliform - 92% Reduction

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE??

What Do the Municipalities Do??? Phase II Stormwater Program Six Minimum Control Measures Public Education and Outreach Public Participation and Involvement Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Best Management Practices – Illicit Discharge Detection, Erosion Control, Ordinances Construction Site Runoff Control Post-Construction Runoff Control Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping

Implementation How Can We Get There ??? NonPoint Sources Voluntary Programs ONLY Cost Share & Incentives Technical Assistance

Implementation How Can We Get There ??? Point Sources CAFOs No Discharge Good Housekeeping BMPs

Implementation How Can We Get There ??? Point Sources Wastewater Treatment Plants No Effect Current Limits = WQS Enforcement

Implementation How Can We Get There ??? Point Sources Stormwater Revise Local Management Program Within 2 Years Consider Listed BMPs

Implementation How Can We Get There ??? Point Sources Stormwater Monitoring Program NO Numeric Effluent Limits
