Final California 2024 Integrated Report (303(d) List/305(b) Report)

Supporting Information

Regional Board 8 - Santa Ana Region

Water Body Name:	San Gabriel River to Poppy Street in Corona Del Mar (Nearshore Zone)
Water Body ID:	CAO8011100020210504053228
Water Body Type:	Ocean


DECISION ID	150607	Region 8
San Gabriel River to Poppy Street in Corona Del Mar (Nearshore Zone)

Pollutant:	Ammonia
Final Listing Decision:	Do Not List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	New Decision
Revision Status	Revised
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	Insufficient information is available to determine beneficial use support for this waterbody-pollutant combination with the statistical power and confidence required by the Listing Policy. Beneficial use support will be reassessed in a future cycle, if more data are available

Regional Board Decision Recommendation:	After review of the available data and information, RWQCB staff concludes that the water body-pollutant combination should not be placed on the section 303(d) list. The readily available data and information is insufficient to determine, with the power and confidence of the Listing Policy, the applicable beneficial use support rating.

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 placed on the section 303(d) list because it cannot be determined if applicable water quality standards are not being exceeded.

Data and Information Type:

PATHOGEN MONITORING

Data Used to Assess Water Quality:

Water Board staff assessed BeachWatch_Orange County data for San Gabriel River to Poppy Street in Corona Del Mar (Nearshore Zone) to determine beneficial use support and the results are as follows: 0 of the 1 samples exceeded the water quality threshold for Coliform, Total. The water quality threshold for shellfish is based on the median concentration of Total Coliform at each station, and is calculated as a 30-day rolling median.

Data Reference:

Field, WQ data from the California Environmental Data Exchange Network assembled for the 2024 Integrated Report in Region 8.

SWAMP Data:

Non-SWAMP

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:

In order to protect the shellfish benefical use in ocean waters, the median total coliform concentration shall not exceed 70 per 100 mL. (Ocean Plan 2019)
