Basin Status
and Assessment Reports
In Phase 1 of the
TMDL Development Cycle, a Status Report is
developed for each river basin, containing a Planning List of
potentially impaired waters that may require the establishment of TMDLs.
The report characterizes each basin’s hydrologic, ecological, and
socioeconomic setting as well as historical, current, and proposed
watershed management issues and activities. It also contains a
preliminary evaluation of major water quality parameters, water quality
issues by planning unit, an evaluation of ecological resources, and
basinwide pollutant loading trends related
to land uses.
In Phase 2 of the
cycle, an Assessment Report is developed for each river basin,
containing a Verified List of impaired waters that will require the
establishment of TMDLs.
Status Reports
for the Group 1, 2, & 3 basins have been completed. Assessment Reports
for the Group 1 basins have been completed. All of these reports are
available at the Basin Rotation
website. To view an individual report, select the basin group
below, and then a basin from the map. A link to status report or
assessment report can be found from each basin's page.
