Water Body Type:	Coastal & Bay Shoreline


DECISION ID	80155	Region 1
Caspar Headlands State Beach

Pollutant:	Indicator Bacteria
Final Listing Decision:	Do Not Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2016)
Revision Status	Revised
Sources:	A Source Unknown
Expected TMDL Completion Date:	2022
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	Fecal indicator bacteria (which includes enterococcus, fecal coliform and total coliform) are being considered for removal from the Section 303(d) list under Sections 4.3 of the Listing Policy. The data assessed are ocean beach fecal indicator bacteria data collected in accordance with AB411 (Chapter 765, Statutes of 1997) requirements. Five LOEs are available in the administrative record to assess indicator bacteria in this water body for the attainment of water contact recreation standards (REC-1). Additionally, one LOE is available for total coliform for the attainment of shellfish harvesting (SHELL) standards. Data from LOEs 32680, 44433, and 25264 have been re-evaluated with LOEs 133722, 133662, 133720, and 133611. Data from LOEs 47639 and 47638 were re-evaluated with LOE 133659. This pollutant was listed under section 3.3 of the Listing Policy utilizing a 4% exceedance rate and therefore a 4% exceedance rate is being utilized to consider if this water body should be de-listed. LOEs 133611 and 133722 were not used in this assessment as they were evaluated at a 10% exceedance rate. The following summary presents number of exceedances and sample count: 1) 4 of 79 samples exceed the Statistical Threshold Value (STV) objective for enterococcus for REC-1; 2) 0 of 129 samples exceed the geometric mean objective for enterococcus for REC-1; 3) 0 of 98 samples exceed the single sample maximum objective for fecal coliform for REC-1; 4) 0 of 30 samples exceed the geometric mean objective for fecal coliform for REC-1; 5) 172 of 240 median concentrations exceed the objective for total coliform for SHELL. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification for not removing this water segment-pollutant combination from the CWA Section 303(d) list. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: (1) The data used satisfy the data quality requirements of Section 6.1.4 of the Policy. (2) The data used satisfy the data quantity requirements of Section 6.1.5 of the Policy. (3) Enterococcus and fecal coliform samples do not exceed the objectives for REC-1 more than the allowable frequency identified in Sections 4.3 of the Listing Policy. (4) Total coliform samples related to the SHELL beneficial use exceed the objectives more that the allowable frequency identified in section 4.3 of the Listing Policy. (5) 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.
