Water Body Type: Coastal & Bay Shoreline
 
DECISION ID
77453
Region 9     
Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, at San Clemente City Beach at Mariposa Lane
 
Pollutant: Indicator Bacteria
Final Listing Decision: Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision: Delist from 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2016)
Revision Status Original
Reason for Delisting: Applicable WQS attained; reason for recovery unspecified
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution: Pollutant
 
Regional Board Conclusion: This pollutant is being considered for removal from the CWA section 303(d) List under section 4.2 of the Listing Policy. Under this section a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status.

Ten lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. With the latest data, 11 of the 166 geomean samples exceed the water quality objective for enterococcus of 35/100ml in a 30-day period for the protection of REC-1.

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 CWA 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. With the latest data, 11 of the 166 geomean samples exceed the water quality objective for enterococcus of 35/100ml in a 30-day period for the protection of REC-1 and this does not exceed the allowable frequency listed in Table 4.2 of the Listing Policy.
4. 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 this Regional Board decision, SWRCB staff recommend the decision be approved by the State Board.

Data and Information Type: PWS pathogen monitoring (ambient water)
Data Used to Assess Water Quality: Beach monitoring data was collected by the County of Orange from May 2004 through December 2006. A total of 548 single samples were collected with 10 samples correlated with a storm event. From the 10 samples, two exceeded the single sample water quality objective. This information will not be used in determining a listing decision, but is of interest to the Regional Board and has been included here as additional anecdotal information.

Guideline Reference:
 
Spatial Representation: Samples were collected from San Clemente City Beach at Mariposa Lane, station id MARIPO, in the San Clemente HA. This station location is found near the intersection of West Escalones and West Mariposa in San Clemente.
Temporal Representation: Samples were collected at least once a week from May 2004 through December 2006. Rainfall data was available for the same time period.
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.
QAPP Information: Quality control for the bacteria analysis portion of this study was conducted in accordance with the County of Orange Quality Assessment/Quality Control document.

For the 2008 assessment , the 2006 listed coastline 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA' was split into smaller segments that each represent an area near the sampling location of the data being assessed. This segment 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, at San Clemente City Beach at Mariposa Lane' is one of the sampling locations. This LOE is a copy of the 2006 listing placeholder LOE for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA and is considered by the Regional Board to be applicable to this more specific segment formed from the split.

Spatial Representation: Samples were collected from San Clemente City Beach at Mariposa Lane, station id MARIPO, in the San Clemente HA. This station location is found near the intersection of West Escalones and West Mariposa in San Clemente.
Temporal Representation: Samples were collected at least once a week from May 2004 through December 2006. Rainfall data was available for the same time period.
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.
