Regional Board 4 - Los Angeles Region

Water Body Name:	Malibou Lake
Water Body ID:	CAL4042400019990201142748
Water Body Type:	Lake & Reservoir


DECISION ID	7242	Region 4
Malibou Lake

Pollutant:	Algae
Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (being addressed by USEPA approved TMDL)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2006)
Revision Status	Revised
Sources:	Agriculture-animal \| Atmospheric Deposition \| Golf course activities \| Groundwater Loadings \| Irrigated Crop Production \| Major Municipal Point Source-dry and/or wet weather discharge \| Onsite Wastewater Systems (Septic Tanks) \| Urban Runoff/Storm Sewers
TMDL Name:	Malibu Creek Nutrients (50)
TMDL Project Code:	239
Date TMDL Approved by USEPA:	03/21/2003
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	This pollutant is being considered for removal on the section 303(d) list under sections 2.2 of the Listing Policy. Under 2.2 of the Policy, a minimum of one line of evidence is needed to assess listing status. Two lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification against removing this water segment-pollutant combination from the section 303(d) list. There is sufficient justification to place it in the Being Addressed portion of the 303(d) list because a TMDL has been established by USEPA, and is expected to result in attainment of the standard.

Regional Board Decision Recommendation:	After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should be placed on the Water Quality Limited Segments Being Addressed category of the section 303(d) list because a TMDL has been established by USEPA, and applicable water quality standards are exceeded and a pollutant contributes to or causes the problem.

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.
