Snake River Watershed TMDL

This Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) study addresses four lake nutrient impairments, three E. coli impairments and one fish and macroinvertebrate biotic integrity in the Snake River watershed. The impaired water bodies are located throughout the Snake River watershed as shown in Figure 1.1. The goal of this TMDL is to quantify the pollutant reductions needed to meet State water quality standards for nutrients, E. coli and State Index of Biotic Integrity standards for Northern Headwaters Streams. These TMDLs are established in accordance with Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act and provides wasteload allocations (WLAs) and load allocations (LAs) for the Snake River Watershed impairments.
