SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Does this action apply to me?

Entities potentially regulated by this

action include a wide variety of 

privately owned CII facilities such as 

shopping centers, supermarkets, office 

complexes, hotels, warehouses, 

manufacturers, cargo and trucking 

terminals, schools, hospitals, and 

nursing homes. Entities potentially 

regulated by this action also include 

privately operated CII facilities at the 

Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. 

Entities affected by this action are 

located within either of two watersheds 

in Los Angeles County, in California: 

the Los Cerritos Channel/Alamitos Bay 

Watershed or the Dominquez Channel/ 

Los Angeles/Long Beach Harbor 

Watershed. This description of affected 

activities is not intended to be 

exhaustive, but rather provides a guide 

for readers regarding entities likely to be 

affected by this action. This description 

of affected activities includes the types 

of entities that EPA is now aware could 

potentially be affected by this action. 

Other types of entities not included

CONTACT section. 

B. Summary of Preliminary Designation

CWA section 402(p)(2)(E) and (6) and

EPA’s implementing regulations at 40 

CFR 122.26(a)(9)(i) authorize EPA to 

designate stormwater discharges for 

regulation under the NPDES permitting 

program. Those provisions authorize the 

Agency to regulate stormwater 

discharges that contribute to a water 

quality standard violation or that are a 

significant contributor of pollutants to 

waters of the United States, or where 

controls are needed based on wasteload 

allocations that are part of total 

maximum daily loads. This authority is 

often referred to as ‘‘residual 

designation authority’’ or RDA. EPA is 

providing notice of and soliciting 

comment on its preliminary designation 

for NPDES permitting of unregulated 

stormwater discharges from certain 

commercial, industrial and institutional 

(CII) facilities in the Los Cerritos

Channel/Alamitos Bay and Dominquez

Channel/Los Angeles/Long Beach

Harbor Watersheds in Los Angeles

County, including privately operated CII

facilities at the Ports of Long Beach and

Los Angeles. EPA is also taking

comment on whether privately operated

CII facilities at municipal airports

located within the watersheds should be

included.

This preliminary designation is in 

response to a 2018 District Court order 

in Los Angeles Waterkeeper v. Pruitt, as 

well as two September 15, 2015 

petitions entitled ‘‘Petition For A 

Determination That Stormwater 

Discharges From Commercial, 

Industrial, And Institutional Sites 

Contribute To Water Quality Standards 

Violations in Dominguez Channel and 

the Los Angeles/Long Beach Inner 

Harbor (Los Angeles County, California) 

and Require Clean Water Act Permits,’’ 

and ‘‘Petition For A Determination That 

Stormwater Discharges From 

Commercial, Industrial, And 

Institutional Sites Contribute To Water 

Quality Standards Violations in the 

Alamitos Bay/Los Cerritos Watershed 

(Los Angeles County, California) And 

Require Clean Water Act Permits.’’

notice. Information on how to submit

preliminary designation are available for
