DECISION ID	34968	Region 2
Castro Cove, Richmond (San Pablo Basin)

Pollutant:	Dieldrin
Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (being addressed by action other than TMDL)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (being addressed by action other than TMDL)(2012)

Cleanup is underway and upon its completion it is expected that this water body will meet applicable water quality standards. In November 2007, Regional Board received a Monitoring and Risk Management Plan which includes post-dredging confirmation monitoring to demonstrate that chemical contamination in the sediment has been reduced to levels that no longer pose unacceptable ecological risk.
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	303(d) listing decisions made prior to 2006 were not held in an assessment database. The Regional Boards will update this decision when new data and information become available and are assessed.

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.

DECISION ID	34069	Region 2
Castro Cove, Richmond (San Pablo Basin)

Pollutant:	Mercury (sediment)
Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (being addressed by action other than TMDL)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (being addressed by action other than TMDL)(2012)

Pollutant name needs to be changed once pollutant name change tool is fixed
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	303(d) listing decisions made prior to 2006 were not held in an assessment database. The Regional Boards will update this decision when new data and information become available and are assessed. Water Board staff conclude that the water body should be placed in the category of the section 303(d) list being addressed by action other than a TMDL. The cleanup that is already taking place will result in reductions of pollutant concentrations to a level that achieves the numeric water quality standards and the proposed Monitoring and Risk Management Plan will demonstrate attainment of the standards.

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.
