note:
The North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Water Board) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have listed the Elk River watershed under the Clean Water Act Section 303(d) as a sediment impaired waterbody. A program has been developed to recover 303(d) List waterbodies via the establishment of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL). At this time, the Regional Water Board staff is in the process of establishing a TMDL for sediment in the Elk River watershed. The goal of the TMDL program is to restore and maintain the sediment impaired beneficial uses of water of Elk River and its tributaries. Staff will develop the technical TMDL, the implementation, and monitoring plans together.
