Pacific Ocean Shoreline, San Clemente HA, at South Capistrano Beach at Beach Road |
||
| Pollutant: | Indicator Bacteria |
| 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 (being addressed by USEPA approved TMDL)(2016) |
| Revision Status | Original |
| Sources: | A Source Unknown |
| TMDL Name: | Bacteria Impaired Waters I (creeks and beach shorelines) |
| TMDL Project Code: | 169 |
| Date TMDL Approved by USEPA: | 06/22/2011 |
| Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution: | Pollutant |
| Regional Board Conclusion: | This pollutant is being considered for placement on the CWA section 303(d) List under section 3.2 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.2 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status.
Fourteen lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. With the latest data, 67 of 166 geomean samples exceed the water quality objective for enterococcus for the protection of REC-1 beneficial use. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification in favor of placing this water segment-pollutant combination on 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, 67 of 166 geomean samples exceed the water quality objective for enterococcus for the protection of REC-1 beneficial use and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. 4. Pursuant to section 3.11 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 placed on the section 303(d) list because 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. |

| Temporal Representation: | Samples were collected at least once a week from May 2004 through December 2006. | ||||
| 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. |

| Temporal Representation: | Samples were collected at least once a week from May 2004 through December 2006. | ||||
| 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. |

Bacteriological samples are collected on a weekly basis at approximately 150 ocean and bay location in Orange County.

Data and information on the number of beach posting were summarized by the County of Orange in their Annual Ocean and Bay Water Quality Report, March 2007. The reporting period was from January 2000 -December 2006. Data used was the number of days the beach was posting when the ocean or bay failed to meet the bacteriological standards. |

This segment 'Pacific Ocean Shoreline, Lower San Juan HSA, at South Capistrano Beach at Beach Road' is one of the sampling locations. This LOE is a copy of the 2006 listing placeholder LOE for Pacific Ocean Shoreline, Lower San Juan HSA and is considered by the Regional Board to be applicable to this more specific segment formed from the split. |
