If yes, then the water body is not considered impaired, if no, then go to Step 2. Step 2: Determine if temperatures adversely affect beneficial uses. If yes, then the water body is considered impaired, if no, then go to Step 3. Step 3: Determine if temperatures are increased by 5 degrees F. If yes, then water body is impaired, if no, then water body is not impaired. The Klamath River HU, Middle Klamath River HA, Seiad Valley HSA, Canyon Creek and its Tributaries from the headwaters to confluence with Seiad Creek water body meets the criteria for temperature reference water bodies, and thus, temperature conditions in this water body reflect natural conditions. |

EVIDENCE OF NATURAL RECEIVING WATER TEMPERATURE: The Klamath River HU, Middle Klamath River HA, Seiad Valley HSA, Canyon Creek and its Tributaries from the headwaters to confluence with Seiad Creek water body has been identified as a temperature reference water body in the "Klamath National Forest Sediment and Temperature Monitoring Plan and Quality Assurance Project Plan" (USFS 2010). Klamath National Forest (KNF) staff followed the State of California's Surface Water Ambient Monitoring Program guidance for screening and identifying reference water bodies (Ode 2009). Regional Water Board staff at the North Coast Region reviewed and approved the criteria that were developed by the KNF to identify temperature reference water bodies. Temperature reference water bodies must meet the following criteria: 1) no evidence of human-caused reduction in stream shade is apparent in aerial photos, 2) road density must be less than 0.19 km/km squared (0.30 mi/mi squared) with no significant failures (this road density value also signifies low past timber harvest intensity), 3) less than 10% of the drainage area is grazed and there are no best management practice violations, and 4) mining activities have no significant sediment inputs. Water bodies with natural disturbance were included in the reference pool as a component of the natural variability in conditions. The Klamath River HU, Middle Klamath River HA, Seiad Valley HSA, Canyon Creek and its Tributaries from the headwaters to confluence with Seiad Creek water body meets the criteria for temperature reference water bodies, and thus, temperature conditions in this water body reflect natural conditions. |

Temperature reference water bodies must meet the following criteria: 1) no evidence of human-caused reduction in stream shade is apparent in aerial photos, 2) road density must be less than 0.19 km/km squared (0.30 mi/mi squared) with no significant failures (this road density value also signifies low past timber harvest intensity), 3) less than 10% of the drainage area is grazed and there are no best management practice violations, and 4) mining activities have no significant sediment inputs. Water bodies with natural disturbance were included in the reference pool as a component of the natural variability in conditions. The Klamath River HU, Middle Klamath River HA, Happy Camp HSA, Cedar Creek and its Tributaries water body meets the criteria for temperature reference water bodies, and thus, temperature conditions in this water body reflect natural conditions. |

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: |
The natural receiving water temperature of Thompson Creek has been altered by human activities. This is demonstrated by exceedances of the amount of the watershed subject to human disturbance (see LOE 21163), and the estimated accelerated mass wasting and soil erosion from timber harvest, roads, and wildfire (see LOE 21164). Activities that remove or reduce shade-producing vegetation, or that result in a discharge of sediment to a stream, can increase stream temperatures. In order to determine if water temperatures adversely affect salmonids, the most sensitive beneficial use in Thompson Creek, temperature data were analyzed. Of the 7 MWMT values calculated from near-continuous summertime temperature samples collected in Thompson Creek, all 7 exceed the evaluation guideline. MWMT values range from 17.0 to 20.3 C. Data are summarized by the Klamath National Forest (KNF 2008). |

Water Quality Objective/Criterion: |
Per the Basin Plan (NCRWQCB 2007): The natural receiving water temperature of intrastate waters shall not be altered unless it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Regional Water Board that such alteration in temperature does not adversely affect beneficial uses. At no time or place shall the temperature of any COLD water be increased by more than 5 F above natural receiving water temperature. At no time or place shall the temperature of WARM intrastate waters be increased more than 5 F above natural receiving water temperature. |
Objective/Criterion Reference: |
Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) - North Coast Region (Region 1) |
|
Evaluation Guideline: |
If the natural receiving water temperature has been altered, or if alternation is unknown, the evaluation guideline to determine adverse affect on the most sensitive beneficial use (in this case, salmonids) is as follows. Per "U.S. EPA Region 10 Guidance for Pacific Northwest State and Tribal Temperature Water Quality Standards" (USEPA 2003), the U.S. EPA recommends a criterion for the protection of moderate to high density summertime salmon and trout juvenile rearing (i.e., core juvenile rearing) of a maximum weekly maximum temperature (MWMT) of 16 degrees C. The MWMT is also known as the maximum 7-day average of daily maximums (7DADM). The 16 degrees C MWMT criterion is recommended to (1) safely protect juvenile salmon and trout from lethal temperatures; (2) provide upper optimal conditions for juvenile growth under limited food during the period of summer maximum temperatures and optimal temperatures for other times of the growth season; (3) avoid temperatures where juvenile salmon and trout are at a competitive disadvantage with other fish; (4) protect against temperature induced elevated disease rates; and (5) provide temperatures that studies show juvenile salmon and trout prefer and are found in high densities. |

Per "U.S. EPA Region 10 Guidance for Pacific Northwest State and Tribal Temperature Water Quality Standards" (USEPA 2003), the U.S. EPA recommends a criterion for the protection of moderate to high density summertime salmon and trout juvenile rearing (i.e., core juvenile rearing) of a maximum weekly maximum temperature (MWMT) of 16 degrees C. The MWMT is also known as the maximum 7-day average of daily maximums (7DADM). The 16 degrees C MWMT criterion is recommended to (1) safely protect juvenile salmon and trout from lethal temperatures; (2) provide upper optimal conditions for juvenile growth under limited food during the period of summer maximum temperatures and optimal temperatures for other times of the growth season; (3) avoid temperatures where juvenile salmon and trout are at a competitive disadvantage with other fish; (4) protect against temperature induced elevated disease rates; and (5) provide temperatures that studies show juvenile salmon and trout prefer and are found in high densities. |

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: |
The natural receiving water temperature of Clear Creek has been altered by human activities. This is demonstrated by exceedances of the evaluation guidelines in the amount of the watershed subject to human disturbance (see LOE 21160), and the estimated accelerated mass wasting and soil erosion from timber harvest, roads, and wildfire (see LOE 21161). Activities that remove or reduce shade-producing vegetation, or that result in a discharge of sediment to a stream, can increase stream temperatures. In order to determine if water temperatures adversely affect salmonids, the most sensitive beneficial use in Clear Creek, temperature data were analyzed. Of the 12 MWMT values calculated from near-continuous summertime temperature samples collected in Clear Creek, all 12 exceed the evaluation guideline. MWMT values range from 19.8 to 23.2 C. Data are summarized by the Klamath National Forest (KNF 2008). |

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: |
Per the Klamath National Forest (Boland 2001, Attachment F), 16% of the Grider Creek Watershed is a congressionally designated Wilderness Area. An additional 80% of the watershed is managed as late successional reserves, which limits management activities to actions that promote old-growth habitat. Less than 1% of the watershed is privately owned. This leaves, at a minimum, 3% to 4% of the watershed subject to disturbance activities. In order to determine if the 80% of the watershed in the late successional reserve has a concentration of disturbance in unstable areas, refugia, or riparian areas, North Coast Regional Water Board staff analyzed images from Google Earth of the Grider Creek Watershed (NCRWQCB 2008). Staff found that human disturbance has occurred in unstable areas (as evidenced by landslides and debris torrents) and in riparian areas (as evidenced by scoured channels). |

Evaluation Guideline: |
Human disturbance within a watershed can impact water temperature and alter natural conditions. Activities that remove or reduce shade-producing vegetation, or that result in a discharge of sediment to a stream, can increase stream temperatures. Per NOAA Fisheries (1996), the guideline for the properly functioning condition for disturbance history is for the entire watershed to be less than 15% disturbed with no concentration of disturbance in (1) unstable areas, (2) potentially unstable areas, (3) refugia, and/or (4) riparian areas. For areas under the Northwest Forest Plan (which includes the Upper South Fork Salmon River watershed), the guideline for the properly functioning condition for disturbance history is also for there to be at least 15% retention of late succession and old growth forest in the watershed. |

Data Used to Assess Water Quality: |
The following process is utilized to interpret the narrative temperature objective in the Basin Plan for impairment assessments. Step 1: Determine if temperatures reflect natural conditions. If yes, then the water body is not considered impaired, if no, then go to Step 2. Step 2: Determine if temperatures adversely affect beneficial uses. If yes, then the water body is considered impaired, if no, then go to Step 3. Step 3: Determine if temperatures are increased by 5 degrees F. If yes, then water body is impaired, if no, then water body is not impaired. The Klamath River HU, Middle Klamath River HA, Ukonom HSA, Elk Creek and its Tributaries from the headwaters to Bear Creek water body meets the criteria for temperature reference water bodies, and thus, temperature conditions in this water body reflect natural conditions. |

Evaluation Guideline: |
EVIDENCE OF NATURAL RECEIVING WATER TEMPERATURE: The Klamath River HU, Middle Klamath River HA, Ukonom HSA, Elk Creek and its Tributaries from the headwaters to Bear Creek water body has been identified as a temperature reference water body in the "Klamath National Forest Sediment and Temperature Monitoring Plan and Quality Assurance Project Plan" (USFS 2010). Klamath National Forest (KNF) staff followed the State of California's Surface Water Ambient Monitoring Program guidance for screening and identifying reference water bodies (Ode 2009). Regional Water Board staff at the North Coast Region reviewed and approved the criteria that were developed by the KNF to identify temperature reference water bodies. Temperature reference water bodies must meet the following criteria: 1) no evidence of human-caused reduction in stream shade is apparent in aerial photos, 2) road density must be less than 0.19 km/km squared (0.30 mi/mi squared) with no significant failures (this road density value also signifies low past timber harvest intensity), 3) less than 10% of the drainage area is grazed and there are no best management practice violations, and 4) mining activities have no significant sediment inputs. Water bodies with natural disturbance were included in the reference pool as a component of the natural variability in conditions. The Klamath River HU, Middle Klamath River HA, Ukonom HSA, Elk Creek and its Tributaries from the headwaters to Bear Creek water body meets the criteria for temperature reference water bodies, and thus, temperature conditions in this water body reflect natural conditions. |
