Regional Board Conclusion:	In 2006, 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 San Luis Rey HU segment has been split into smaller segments and each represents an area near the sampling location of the data being assessed. 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, Oceanside Pier at San Luis Rey River mouth' is one of the sampling locations for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, 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. Twenty six of samples exceeded the water quality objective for fecal coliform. 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. Twenty-two of 269 dry weather single samples and one of 26 geo-metric mean calculations exceeded the recreational use single sample and geo-metric mean criteria, respectively. This does not exceed the allowable frequency of exceedances in Table 4.2 (at a four percent exceedance percentage AB411). In LOE 30203, 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. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification for 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. Twenty-six of 282 samples exceeded the fecal coliform water quality objective and this does not exceed the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Twenty-two of 269 samples exceeded the recreational use water quality objective and this does not exceed the allowable frequency of exceedances in Table 4.2 (at a four percent exceedance percentage AB411) of the Listing Policy 5. One of 26 geo-metric mean calculations exceeded the recreational use geo-metric mean criteria. This does not exceed the allowable frequency of exceedances 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 not met.

Regional Board Decision Recommendation:	After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are not 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 be removed from the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards for the pollutant are not exceeded.

Environmental Conditions:

Comparisons were made for all data and data associated with storm events. A storm event was defined as 0.2 inches of rainfall within a 72 hour period.

Analyzing only storm water bacteria data is important because the majority of beach monitoring data covers the months of April through October. The data may not capture the full impacts of seasonal storm events and high bacteria levels due to storm water runoff because much of the wet season for Southern California occurs in November through March.

Regional Board Conclusion:	In 2006, 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 San Luis Rey HU segment has been split into smaller segments and each represents an area near the sampling location of the data being assessed. 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, Oceanside Pier at San Luis Rey River mouth' is one of the sampling locations for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, 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. Seventeen of samples exceed the water quality objective for enterococcus. 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. Forty-two of 327 dry weather single samples and six of 26 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). In LOE 30205 , 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. 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. Seventeen of 45 samples exceeded the enterococcus water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Forty-two of 327 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. Six of 26 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.

USEPA Action (if applicable):	USEPA approved the listing of this water body as a water quality limited segment requiring a TMDL for this pollutant.

DECISION ID	17274	Region 9
Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, at San Luis Rey River mouth

Pollutant:	Total Coliform
Final Listing Decision:	Do Not Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	New Decision
Revision Status	Revised
Sources:	Unknown Nonpoint Source \| Unknown Point Source \| Urban Runoff/Storm Sewers
Expected TMDL Completion Date:	2021
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	In 2006, 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU' was listed for Indicator Bacteria. For 2008, the 2006 San Luis Rey HU segment has been split into smaller segments and each represents an area near the sampling location of the data being assessed. 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, Oceanside Pier at San Luis Rey River mouth' is one of the sampling locations for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Luis Rey HU, 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. One hundred thirty-two samples exceed the water quality objective for Shellfish Harvesting. 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 there are two additional line of evidence available in the administrative record. Seven of 327 dry weather single samples and one of 26 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. In LOEs 30199 and 30201, 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. 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 thirty two of 342 samples exceeded the Shellfish Harvesting water quality objective and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Seven of 327 dry weather single samples 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 5. One of 26 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. 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 this Regional Board decision, SWRCB staff recommend the decision be approved by the State Board.

USEPA Action (if applicable):	USEPA approved the listing of this water body as a water quality limited segment requiring a TMDL for this pollutant.
