Regional Board Conclusion: | In 2006, 'Mission Bay Shoreline' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 Mission Bay Shoreline segment has been split into smaller segments and each represents an area near the sampling location of the data being assessed. 'Mission Bay Shoreline, at Campland' is one of the sampling locations for Mission Bay Shoreline, and is considered to be part of the original listing.
For this 2008 assessment, the Regional Board has chosen to replace the 'indicator bacteria' listing with separate assessments of the specific indicator bacteria, such as total coliform, fecal coliform, and enterococcus, for removal or non-removal from the 303(d) list. This pollutant is being considered for removal from the section 303(d) list under section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. Under this section a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status. Four lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. One-hundred-twenty-four of 492 samples exceed the water quality objective for Enterococcus. In LOE 28674, the Regional Board calculated exceedances for samples taken only during storm events. This information was not used in determining listing decisions, but is of interest to the Regional Board and has been included as additional anecdotal information. The water body segment is identified as an AB411 beach and data collected during the time frame of April 1st to October 31st (dry weather) is assessed using a four percent exceedance percentage (sections 3.3 and 4.3 of Listing Policy). There are two additional lines of evidence for dry weather single sample and geometric mean calculations. One hundred ten of 471 dry weather single samples and 19 of 59 geo-metric mean calculations exceeded the recreational use single sample and geo-metric mean criteria, respectively. This exceeds the allowable limit in Table 4.2 (at a four percent exceedance percentage AB411). 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. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: 1. The data used satisfies the data quality requirements of section 6.1.4 of the Policy. 2. The data used satisfies the data quantity requirements of section 6.1.5 of the Policy. 3. One-hundred-twenty-four of 492 samples exceeded the Enterococcus water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. One hundred ten of 471 samples exceeded the recreational use water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable limit listed in Table 4.2 (at a four percent exceedance percentage AB411) of the Listing Policy 5. Nineteen of 59 geo-metric mean calculations exceeded the recreational use geo-metric mean criteria. This exceeds the allowable limit in Table 4.2 (at a four percent exceedance percentage AB411). 6. Pursuant to section 4.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are met. |
Regional Board Decision Recommendation: | After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are being exceeded. |
State Board Review of Regional Board Conclusion and Recommendation: | |
State Board Decision Recommendation: | After review of the available data and information, SWRCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are being exceeded. |

Regional Board Conclusion: | In 2006, 'Mission Bay Shoreline' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 Mission Bay Shoreline segment has been split into smaller segments and each represents an area near the sampling location of the data being assessed. 'Mission Bay Shoreline, at Campland' is one of the sampling locations for Mission Bay Shoreline, and is considered to be part of the original listing.
For this 2008 assessment, the Regional Board has chosen to replace the 'indicator bacteria' listing with separate assessments of the specific indicator bacteria, such as total coliform, fecal coliform, and enterococcus, for removal or non-removal from the 303(d) list. This pollutant is being considered for removal from the section 303(d) list under section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. Under this section a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status. Six lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. Two-hundred-seventeen of 492 samples exceed the water quality objective for Shellfish Harvesting. In LOEs 28633 and 28738, the Regional Board calculated exceedances for samples taken only during storm events. This information was not used in determining listing decisions, but is of interest to the Regional Board and has been included as additional anecdotal information. The coastal beach at this water segment is identified as an AB411 beach. To comply with the requirements of AB411 the dry weather data collected during the time frame of April 1st to October 31st is assessed using a four percent exceedance percentage, as described in section 3.3 (and 4.3) of the Listing Policy. An assessment for dry weather single sample and the geometric mean calculation was conducted and two additional lines of evidence are available in the administrative record. Five of 472 single samples and 2 of 59 geometric mean calculations exceeded the criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit based on the application of a four percent exceedance percentage (AB411) to section 3.3 of the Listing Policy. 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. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: 1. The data used satisfies the data quality requirements of section 6.1.4 of the Policy. 2. The data used satisfies the data quantity requirements of section 6.1.5 of the Policy. 3. Two hundred seventeen of 492 samples exceeded the Shellfish Harvesting water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Five of 472 dry weather single samples exceeded the total coliform criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit (at a four percent exceedance percentage - AB411) in section 3.3 of the Listing Policy. 5. Two of 59 dry weather geometric mean calculations exceeded the total coliform criteria for recreational use and this does not exceed the allowable limit (at a four percent exceedance percentage - AB411) in section 3.3 of the Listing Policy. 6. Pursuant to section 4.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are met. |
Regional Board Decision Recommendation: | After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are being exceeded. |
State Board Review of Regional Board Conclusion and Recommendation: | |
State Board Decision Recommendation: | After review of the available data and information, SWRCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are being exceeded. |
USEPA Action (if applicable): | USEPA approved the listing of this water body as a water quality limited segment requiring a TMDL for this pollutant. |

Water Quality Objective/Criterion: | Title 17 C.C.R. Section 7958 states: Based on a single sample, the density of bacteria in water from each sampling station at a public beach or public water contact sports area shall not exceed:
(A) 1,000 total coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters, if the ratio of fecal/total coliform bacteria exceeds 0.1; or (B) 10,000 total coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters; or (C) 400 fecal coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters; or (D) 104 enterococcus bacteria per 100 milliliters. Based on the mean of the logarithms of the results of at least five weekly samples during any 30-day sampling period, the density of bacteria in water from any sampling station at a public beach or public water contact sports area, shall not exceed: (A) 1,000 total coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters; or (B) 200 fecal coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters; or (C) 35 enterococcus bacteria per 100 milliliters (DHS, 1999). |
