DECISION ID	141765	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Temperature, water
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)(2018)
Revision Status	Revised
Sources:	A Source Unknown
Expected TMDL Completion Date:	2037
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. 39 lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. 22 of the 64 samples exceed the evaluation guideline for COLD and 29 of the 51 samples exceed the evaluation guideline for MIGR beneficial use. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification against 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. 22 of 64 samples exceeded the evaluation guideline and this exceeds 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 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.

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 Used to Assess Water Quality:

Comprehensive water quality assessment was conducted at the Arroyo Mocho watershed as part of SWAMP assessment. Continuous field monitoring at 15 minute increments of temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH and specific conductance was conducted to determine temporal variability in basic water quality at five locations throughout the watershed.

The measured temperatures ranged from 6.1°C to 27.72 °C and varied with season and location. The 17 °C criterion for steelhead was exceeded in 6 out of 12 deployments.

High water temperatures exceeding 24 °C, that is a maximum short exposure temperature for survival of salmonids (EPA 1977) were also measured at three monitoring locations at lower and upper reaches of the Creek during spring and summer seasons. At the monitoring site in the lower reach of the Arroyo Mocho Creek high temperature persisted for up to 5.75 hours during spring while at the middle and upper reach it lasted from 5 to more than 9 hours.

SWAMP

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:

Temperature objectives for enclosed bays and estuaries are specified in the "Water Quality Control Plan for Control of Temperature in the Coastal and Interstate Waters and Enclosed Bays of California" including any revisions to the plan. In addition, the following temperature objectives apply to surface waters: 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.
The temperature of any cold or warm freshwater habitat shall not be increased by more than 5°F (2.8°C) above natural receiving water temperature.

Objective/Criterion Reference:

Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) - San Francisco Bay Region (Region 2)

Evaluation Guideline:

Sullivan et al. (2000) reviewed a wide range of studies incorporating information from laboratory-based research, field observations, and risk assessment approaches and developed criteria for assessing temperature risk to aquatic life. The 7-day mean temperature (maximum value of the 7-day moving average of the daily mean temperature) of 14.8°C was established as the upper threshold criterion for coho salmon and 17.0°C for steelhead trout. The risk assessment approach used by Sullivan et al. (2000) suggests that temperatures exceeding the above thresholds will cause 10% reduction in average fish growth compared to optimal conditions.

Guideline Reference:

Spatial Representation:

Temperature was measured at five sites located on the mainstem of Arroyo Mocho Creek. The highest temperatures were recorded at the monitoring location southeast of Livermore in August 2004. High temperatures also occurred in the lower reach of the Creek during the spring season of 2004.

Temporal Representation:

In 2004 and 2005 the SWAMP Program performed continuous monitoring of temperature at 15 minute intervals for periods of 1-2 weeks in each of three different seasons: winter (5 sites), spring (5 sites), and summer dry season (2 sites).

DECISION ID	141773	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Alkalinity as CaCO3
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:	This pollutant is being considered for placement on the CWA section 303(d) List under section 3.2 of the Listing Policy. Zero samples exceeded the objectives, guidelines, or criteria for beneficial uses applicable to this water segment-pollutant combination, which is less than the minimum number of exceedances needed to place the water segment on the section CWA section 303(d) List for conventional or other pollutants (Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy). The data used satisfies the data quality requirements (section 6.1.4) and data quantity requirements (section 6.1.5) of the Listing Policy. Pursuant to section 3.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are not met. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification against placing this water segment-pollutant combination on the CWA section 303(d) List.

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 because applicable water quality standards are not being exceeded.

DECISION ID	151625	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Aluminum
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:	During 2024 cycle, the 1988 National Recommended Water Quality Criteria used to assess aluminum data was replaced with U.S. EPA’s 2018 Final Recommended Aquatic Life Criteria for Aluminum in Freshwater. This pollutant is being considered for placement on the CWA section 303(d) List under section 3.1 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.1 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status. 4 lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. 0 of 2 samples exceed the evaluation guideline for the aquatic life beneficial use. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification against placing this water segment-pollutant combination on the CWA section 303(d) List in the Water Quality Limited Segments category. 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. 0 samples exceeded the evaluation guidelines, and this does not exceed the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.1 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 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.

Evaluation Guideline:

The aluminum criterion for the protection of aquatic life, is pH, total hardness, and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) dependent. When total hardness or DOC data were not available, default values based on the level III ecoregions developed by U.S EPA were substituted (EPA, 2018). When pH data were not available, the median pH value for the ecoregion, a pH value from a comparable waterbody, or a pH value from a local study in the same waterbody was used as a comparable surrogate.

DECISION ID	150851	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

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:	This pollutant is being considered for placement on the CWA section 303(d) List under section 3.1 of the Listing Policy. The number of measured exceedances is less than the minimum number of exceedances needed to place the water segment on the section CWA section 303(d) List for toxicant pollutants (Table 3.1 of the Listing Policy). The data used satisfies the data quality requirements (section 6.1.4) and data quantity requirements (section 6.1.5) of the Listing Policy. Pursuant to section 3.11 of the Listing Policy, no additional data and information are available indicating that standards are not met. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that this water segment-pollutant combination should not be placed on the CWA section 303(d) List. Refer to the lines of evidence in this fact sheet for the data and information, sample counts and exceedances, quality assurance documentation, beneficial uses, and water quality objectives or numeric evaluation guidelines relied upon for this decision.

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 because applicable water quality standards are not being exceeded.

DECISION ID	141732	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Anthracene
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.

DECISION ID	154212	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Benthic Community Effects
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:	Benthic community effects are being considered for placement on the CWA section 303(d) List under section 3.9 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.9, when data show benthic community degradation and there is at least one pollutant impairment that could impact benthic macroinvertebrates, the waterbody is placed on the 303(d) List for benthic community effects. Twenty-three lines of evidence evaluating benthic macroinvertebrate bioassessment data are available in the administrative record to assess this indicator. Twenty-one of twenty-three benthic-macroinvertebrate samples exceed the California Stream Condition Index (CSCI) impairment threshold of 0.79. At least one line of evidence includes sufficient pollutant exceedances to indicate the waterbody is impaired for at least one pollutant. However, there is insufficient data and/or information to determine if at least one pollutant could be impacting benthic macroinvertebrates. Based on the readily available data and information, the evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification against placing Benthic Community Effects in this waterbody segment on the CWA section 303(d) List. Although there is insufficient data and/or information to make a beneficial use support determination, the exceedances of the benthic macroinvertebrate samples indicate beneficial uses may be potentially threatened. 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. Twenty-one of twenty-three benthic macroinvertebrate bioassessment samples had CSCI scores below 0.79. 4. At least one line of evidence includes sufficient pollutant exceedances to indicate the waterbody is impaired for at least one pollutant related to aquatic life; however, data and/or information are insufficient to determine if the pollutant(s) is impacting benthic macroinvertebrates. 5. 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 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.

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:

All waters shall be maintained free of toxic substances in concentrations that are lethal to or that produce significant alterations in population or community ecology or receiving water biota. In addition, the health and life history characteristics of aquatic organisms in waters affected by controllable water quality factors shall not differ significantly from those for the same waters in areas unaffected by controllable water quality factors.

Objective/Criterion Reference:

Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) San Francisco Bay Basin (Region 2)

Evaluation Guideline:

The California Stream Condition Index (CSCI) is a biological scoring tool that helps aquatic resource managers translate complex data about benthic macroinvertebrates found living in a stream into an overall measure of stream health. The CSCI score is calculated by comparing the expected condition with actual (observed) results (Rehn, A.C. et al., 2015). CSCI scores range from 0 (highly degraded) to greater than 1 (equivalent to reference). CSCI scoring of biological condition are as follows (per the scientific paper supporting the development of the CSCI scoring tool): greater than or equal to 0.92 = likely intact condition, 0.91 to 0.80 = possibly altered condition, 0.79 to 0.63 = likely altered condition, less than or equal to 0.62 = very likely altered condition. Sites with scores below 0.79 are considered to have exceeded the water quality objective for the aquatic life beneficial use.Â

TOXICITY TESTING

Data Used to Assess Water Quality:

1 of the 2 samples collected by BASMAA RMC Monitoring in WY2014 for Arroyo Mocho exhibited toxicity. A sample may have multiple toxicity test results, but will only be counted once. A sample is defined as being collected on the same day and the same location. The following organisms and parameters were utilized for the toxicity tests: Ceriodaphnia dubia for Survival, Selenastrum capricornutum for Total Cell Count, Pimephales promelas for Survival, Pimephales promelas for Biomass (wt/orig indiv), Ceriodaphnia dubia for Young/female, Hyalella azteca for Survival. The following tests exhibited toxicity: Selenastrum capricornutum for Total Cell Count on 2014-07-23.

Data Reference:

SWAMP Data:

Non-SWAMP

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:

All waters shall be maintained free of toxic substances in concentrations that are lethal to or that produce other detrimental responses in aquatic organisms. Detrimental responses include, but are not limited to, decreased growth rate and decreased reproductive success of resident or indicator species. There shall be no acute toxicity in ambient waters. Acute toxicity is defined as a median of less than 90 percent survival, or less than 70 percent survival, 10 percent of the time, of test organisms in a 96-hour static or continuous flow test. There shall be no chronic toxicity in ambient waters. Chronic toxicity is a detrimental biological effect on growth rate, reproduction, fertilization success, larval development, population abundance, community composition, or any other relevant measure of the health of an organism, population, or community. Attainment of this objective will be determined by analyses of indicator organisms, species diversity, population density, growth anomalies, or toxicity tests (including those described in Chapter 4), or other methods selected by the Water Board. The Water Board will also consider other relevant information and numeric criteria and guidelines for toxic substances developed by other agencies as appropriate.

Objective/Criterion Reference:

Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) San Francisco Bay Basin (Region 2)

Evaluation Guideline:

The sample is toxic when the response of the organisms exposed to the sample is significantly different (worse) than the response of the organisms exposed to the laboratory control based on statistical hypothesis testing. An exceedance is counted when the significant effect code is “Significant; Less Similarity,” which means that the sample result is significantly different than the control result, and the percent effect is greater than the evaluation threshold. The default evaluation threshold is 20% unless otherwise stated.

TOXICITY TESTING

Data Used to Assess Water Quality:

Three samples were collected in 2005 to evaluate water toxicity at two monitoring locations in Arroyo Mocho watershed. The toxicity tests included survival and reproduction of Ceriodaphnia, survival and growth of fathead minnow, and growth of Selenastrum. Ceriodaphnia growth was significantly lower than the control in one of three samples (dry season sample). Growth was 69.4 percent of the control for this sample.

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:

All waters shall be maintained free of toxic substances that are lethal to or that produce other detrimental responses in aquatic organisms.
There shall be no chronic toxicity in ambient waters.

Objective/Criterion Reference:

Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) - San Francisco Bay Region (Region 2)

Evaluation Guideline:

Water toxicity was evaluated according to the SWAMP methodology. The U.S.EPA whole effluent toxicity protocol (U.S.EPA 1994) was used to test the effect of water samples on three freshwater test organisms. Statistical evaluation (alpha = 0.05) and a default threshold of 80% of the control value were used to establish whether water exhibited significant toxicity adversely impacting aquatic organisms.

DECISION ID	141735	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Benzo(a)anthracene
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.

DECISION ID	141739	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Chlorine
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. Although there was a sufficient number of samples to assess total chlorine, this water body was given a use rating of Insufficient Information and a Do Not List decision. First, data were collected with field instruments that do not have the sensitivity to detect low levels of total chlorine to assess the freshwater water quality objectives of 11 ug/L and 19 ug/L. Secondly, most of the data were collected only once for a given site, and the data were not collected with the purpose of assessing chlorine levels in the water body. A more appropriate sampling to determine water quality impacts of chlorine might be conducted for future Integrated Report assessments.

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.

Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Chlorpyrifos
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.

DECISION ID	141772	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Cypermethrin
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.

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.

Pollutant:	Fluorene
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.

DECISION ID	141757	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Nickel
Final Listing Decision:	Do Not List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	Do Not List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2018)
Revision Status	Revised
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 3.6 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.6 at least two lines of evidence are necessary to assess listing status for pollutants sediment, and pollutant concentrations in sediment must be associated with sediment toxicity to justify adding that pollutant to the CWA section 303(d) List. 13 lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. 2 of the 2 sediment samples exceed the evaluation guideline. 0 of 2 samples exhibit sediment toxicity. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is insufficient justification for 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. 2 of the 2 samples exceed the sediment evaluation guideline but 0 of 2 samples exceed the associated toxicity data and this sample size is SUFFICIENT to determine beneficial use support, with the power and confidence of the Listing Policy. There is associated sediment toxicity data as required by Section 3.6 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 not be placed on the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards 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.

Under section 3.2 a single line of evidence is necessary to assess listing status. Four lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess this pollutant. One of fifty-one samples exceed the Basin Plan objective. Based on the readily available data and information, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification against 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. One of fifty-one samples exceed the Basin Plan objective and this does not exceed 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 not be placed on the section 303(d) list because applicable water quality standards 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.

PHYSICAL/CHEMICAL MONITORING

Data Used to Assess Water Quality:

Comprehensive water quality assessment was conducted at Arroyo Mocho watershed as part of SWAMP assessment in 2004 and 2005. Continuous field monitoring of temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and specific conductance to determine temporal variability in basic water quality at one or two locations. The 7 day average minimum concentration of dissolved oxygen ranged from 0.2 to 10.5 mg/L and varied with season. Minimum dissolved oxygen levels fell below the objective of 5 mg/L at two locations in spring (April 2004) and one in the summer (August 2004) sampling events. The 7 day average concentration levels were 3.7, 0.7 (all spring) and 0.2 (summer) mg/L DO.

Data Used to Assess Water Quality:

Comprehensive water quality assessment was conducted at Arroyo Mocho watershed as part of SWAMP assessment in 2004 and 2005. Continuous field monitoring of temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and specific conductance to determine temporal variability in basic water quality at one or two locations. The 7 day average minimum concentration of dissolved oxygen ranged from 0.2 to 10.5 mg/L and varied with season. Minimum dissolved oxygen levels fell below the objective of 7 mg/L at three locations in spring (April 2004) and one in the summer (August 2003) sampling events. The 7 day average concentration levels were 6.5, 3.7, 0.7 (all spring) and 0.2 (summer) mg/L DO.

DECISION ID	148799	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons)
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.

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.

Evaluation Guideline:

The evaluation guideline for the protection of aquatic life from pyrethroids is one toxic unit. Individual pyrethroid concentrations in sediment were normalized to organic carbon content, divided by the respective LC50 and then summed. A sum over over one toxic unit is an exceedance of the evaluation guideline (Amweg et al. 2006).

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:

Objective/Criterion Reference:

Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) San Francisco Bay Basin (Region 2)

Evaluation Guideline:

Turbidities of 40 NTU or greater can cause a reduced foraging efficiency and a shift in prey selection in piscivorous fish (largemouth bass) due to interference with their ability to find prey (Shoup, D.E. and Wahl D.H., 2009). The application of this evaluation guideline was restricted to the dry season (May to October) because runoff and resuspension of fine substrate during storm events may naturally elevate turbidity compared to baseflow conditions. The magnitude and duration of these increases will vary depending on the watershed’s geology and land use and may not represent a chronic turbidity problem. Turbidity is naturally higher in tidal river systems, so sample locations with salinity regimes (i.e., Freshwater or Marine) designated as “Marine” were excluded from this analysis.

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:

Objective/Criterion Reference:

Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) San Francisco Bay Basin (Region 2)

Evaluation Guideline:

Sigler et al. (1984) states that turbidities of 25 NTUs or greater caused reduction in juvenile salmonid growth due to interference with their ability to find food. The application of this evaluation guideline was restricted to the dry season (May to October) because Coho and steelhead early life stages are present during the dry season and feeding becomes infrequent during the winter months (Moyle 2002). Additionally, runoff and resuspension of fine substrate during storm events may naturally elevate turbidity compared to baseflow conditions. The magnitude and duration of these increases will vary depending on the watershed’s geology and land use and may not represent a chronic turbidity problem. Turbidity is naturally higher in tidal river systems, so sample locations with salinity regimes (i.e., Freshwater or Marine) designated as “Marine” were excluded from this analysis.

DECISION ID	141769	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Zinc
Final Listing Decision:	Do Not List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	Do Not List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2018)
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.

DECISION ID	154554	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Eutrophication
Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	New Decision
Revision Status	Revised
Sources:	A Source Unknown
Expected TMDL Completion Date:	2037
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	This pollutant is being considered for listing under sections 3.7.1 and 3.11 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.7.1, an acceptable nutrient-related evaluation guideline is exceeded using the binomial distribution as described in section 3.1 for excessive algae growth, unnatural foam, odor, and taste. Waters may also be placed on the section 303(d) list when a significant nuisance condition exists as compared to reference conditions, or when nutrient concentrations cause or contribute to excessive algae growth. Under section 3.11, water segments shall be evaluated to determine whether the weight of evidence demonstrates that a water quality standard is not attained. When making a listing decision based on the situation-specific weight of evidence, the Regional Water Board must justify its recommendation by: 1. Providing any data or information including current conditions supporting the decision; 2. Describing in fact sheets how the data or information affords a substantial basis in fact from which the decision can be reasonably inferred; 3. Demonstrating that the weight of evidence of the data and information indicate that the water quality standard is not attained; and 4. Demonstrating that the approach used is scientifically defensible and reproducible. Eighty-three lines of evidence are available in the administrative record to assess these pollutants: (1) algae; (2) nitrogen; (3) nitrogen, nitrate; (4) total ammonia; (5) phosphorus; (6) chlorophyll-a (water column); (7) chlorophyll-a (benthic); (8) dissolved oxygen; and (9) pH. Based on the readily available data for this water body, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification available in favor of adding this water segment-pollutant combination to the section 303(d) list in the Water Quality Limited Segments category. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: 1. The data used were collected by SWAMP and SWAMP-comparable programs which satisfy the data quality requirements of section 6.1.4 of the Policy. Sampling occurred at 20 sites between 2012-2019, so data are both spatially and temporally representative. Data were collected between April and August, so different stages of algal growth are represented in the dataset. 2. The evaluation of eutrophic conditions requires the weight of evidence approach because the evaluation process examining a stream’s trophic status requires measuring naturally occurring stream organisms (i.e., algae) and determining if the current amount of algae is affecting recreational beneficial uses or water quality parameters that influence aquatic life (e.g., pH and dissolved oxygen). Such an analysis requires the integration of secondary water quality indicators at sites with high algal biomass because the presence of algae alone does not demonstrate that aquatic impacts have occurred. For the lines of evidence regarding nutrients with direct toxic effects (e.g., un-ionized ammonia, total ammonia, and nitrate), Listing Policy Table 3.1 criteria for toxicants was used to determine if that aquatic life beneficial uses were affected by nutrient toxicity. 3. Nutrient-related evaluation guidelines for percent algae cover, total nitrogen, nitrate, and phosphorus were evaluated using the binomial distribution as described in section 3.1 of the Listing Policy. Five of 13 algae sampled exceeded the evaluation guideline of 30% cover and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.1 of the Listing Policy. Four of 17 total nitrogen samples exceeded the evaluation guideline of 0.736 mg/L and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.1 of the Listing Policy. Sixteen of 27 total phosphorus samples exceeded the evaluation guideline of 0.107 mg/L and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.1 of the Listing Policy. The conventional parameters chlorophyll, dissolved oxygen, and pH were evaluated against binomial distribution tables as described in section 3.2 of the Listing Policy Four of 11 chlorophyll-a (water column) samples exceed the evaluation guideline of 40 ug/L and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. Six of 14 chlorophyll-a (benthic) samples exceed the evaluation guideline of 100 mg/m2 and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. Eighty-three of 202 days exceeded the dissolved oxygen evaluation guideline of 13 mg/L and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. Nineteen of 51 pH samples exceeded the evaluation guideline of 8.5 pH units and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. In addition to the aforementioned LOEs, continuous monitoring data showed daily dissolved oxygen swings greater than 5 mg/L for 106 of 202 days monitored, which is indicative of eutrophic conditions. There was generally strong agreement between indicators, meaning that sites exceeding evaluation guidelines for nutrients tended to show signs of nuisance algae growth or adverse effects to beneficial uses. 4. This process is scientifically defensible and reproducible. Data used to make this decision were collected using standardized SWAMP protocols and evaluated against U.S. EPA criteria, Basin Plan Water Quality Objectives, and technical report recommendations, when possible. When formal numeric objectives were not available, numeric evaluation guidelines were established using a reference-site approach (i.e., sites that are unimpacted or minimally impacted by humans) which was adapted from the U.S. EPA Nutrient Criteria Technical Guidance Manual. Reference status for nutrient and bioassessment sampling sites throughout the San Francisco Bay region were determined according to the method described by Ode et al. (2015).

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:	The conventional parameters chlorophyll, dissolved oxygen, and pH were evaluated against binomial distribution tables as described in section 3.2 of the Listing Policy Four of 11 chlorophyll-a (water column) samples exceed the evaluation guideline of 40 ug/L and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. Six of 14 chlorophyll-a (benthic) samples exceed the evaluation guideline of 100 mg/m2 and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. Eighty-three of 202 days exceeded the dissolved oxygen evaluation guideline of 13 mg/L and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy. Nineteen of 51 pH samples exceeded the evaluation guideline of 8.5 pH units and this exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.2 of the Listing Policy.

Water Board staff assessed BASMAA RMC Monitoring in WY2012, WY2013, WY2014, WY2015, WY2017, and WY2019 data for Arroyo Mocho to determine beneficial use support and the results are as follows: 0 of the 9 samples exceeded the evaluation guideline of 0.107 mg/L, which represents the 90th percentile of phosphorus concentrations at reference sites (i.e., minimally impacted sites) in San Francisco Bay Region.

Data Reference:

Water Quality Objective/Criterion:

Chapter 3.3.3 of the Water Quality Control Plan for the San Francisco Bay Basin states "Waters shall not contain biostimulatory substances in concentrations that promote aquatic growths to the extent that such growths cause nuisance or adversely affect beneficial uses. Changes in chlorophyll a and associated phytoplankton communities follow complex dynamics that are sometimes associated with a discharge of biostimulatory substances. Irregular and extreme levels of chlorophyll a or phytoplankton blooms may indicate exceedance of this objective and require investigation."

Objective/Criterion Reference:

Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) San Francisco Bay Basin (Region 2)

Evaluation Guideline:

The 90th percentile of phosphorus concentrations in San Francisco Bay Region reference streams, 0.107 mg/L, was selected as the evaluation guideline, meaning ninety percent of reference sites will have concentrations at or below 0.107 mg/L for phosphorus. Currently, there are no numeric Water Quality Objectives or U.S. EPA criteria for algae-based indicators to determine if a water’s beneficial uses are impaired by eutrophication. The U.S. EPA Nutrient Criteria Technical Guidance Manual documents how reference reaches (i.e., reaches that are unimpacted or minimally impacted by humans) can be used to establish nutrient criteria. Reference status for nutrient and bioassessment sampling sites throughout the San Francisco Bay Region were determined according to the method described by Ode et al. (2015). Briefly, reference status was determined by land use and land-cover metrics that quantify natural characteristics and anthropogenic stressors at or upstream of sampling sites. For this study, sites excluded by the reference tool were added back to the reference pool if best professional judgement showed the tool misidentified a source of impact (e.g., flagged for agriculture when there is no agriculture in the watershed); the impacts were believed to be minimal (e.g., minimally used roads in a protected area); or it was part of a long-term reference study that was established before the reference screening tool was developed. Less than fifteen percent of reference sites (18 of 131 sites) were added back to the reference pool using best professional judgement.

Temporal Representation:

Data for this waterbody were collected over the date range 2012-05-30 to 2019-06-17

Environmental Conditions:

Arroyo Mocho flows through the Livermore Valley and drains to Arroyo de la Laguna. Its major tributaries are Arroyo Las Positas and Tassajara Creek. The upper extent of Arroyo Mocho is non-perennial and includes cattle grazing and open space land uses. The downstream portion of Arroyo Mocho is a flood control channel which is fed primarily by Arroyo Las Positas during the dry season.

The 90th percentile of total nitrogen concentrations in San Francisco Bay Region reference streams, 0.736 mg/L, was selected as the evaluation guideline, meaning ninety percent of reference sites will have concentrations at or below 0.736 mg/L for total nitrogen. Currently, there are no numeric Water Quality Objectives or U.S. EPA criteria for algae-based indicators to determine if a water’s beneficial uses are impaired by eutrophication. The U.S. EPA Nutrient Criteria Technical Guidance Manual documents how reference reaches (i.e., reaches that are unimpacted or minimally impacted by humans) can be used to establish nutrient criteria.

Data Used to Assess Water Quality:

Comprehensive water quality assessment was conducted at Arroyo Mocho Creek watershed as part of SWAMP assessment in 2004 and 2005. Continuous field monitoring of temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and specific conductance to determine temporal variability in basic water quality at one or two locations. The pH ranged from 7.0 to 9.2 and varied with season. The pH exceeded the maximum of 8.5 four times (9.2, 9.1, 8.8, 8.6) in all three (spring, summer, winter) seasons. The pH did not go below the minimum during any sampling event.

Data Used to Assess Water Quality:

To estimate percent algae cover, SWAMP staff established a 50 m section that is representative of the stream reach. The 50 m section was divided into 5 m longitudinal transects and visually estimated the percent cover of filamentous green algae in 10% bins. The average of the ten transects was calculated to get an overall percent cover for each site. Sites were visited monthly to calculate changes across the dry season. To ensure consistency, the same field crew member conducted the estimates for the entire project.

DECISION ID	141767	Region 2
Arroyo Mocho

Pollutant:	Toxicity
Final Listing Decision:	List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)
Last Listing Cycle's Final Listing Decision:	Do Not List on 303(d) list (TMDL required list)(2018)
Revision Status	Revised
Sources:	A Source Unknown
Expected TMDL Completion Date:	2037
Impairment from Pollutant or Pollution:	Pollutant

Regional Board Conclusion:	This pollutant is being considered for listing under section 3.6 of the Listing Policy. Under section 3.6 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. This water body experiences toxicity. Based on the readily available data for this water body, the weight of evidence indicates that there is sufficient justification available in favor of adding this water segment-pollutant combination to the section 303(d) list in the Water Quality Limited Segments category. This conclusion is based on the staff findings that: 1. The data concerning current conditions and supporting the listing decision 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. Three out of seven water samples exhibited water toxicity. The number of samples with detected water toxicity exceeds the allowable frequency listed in Table 3.1. 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.
