ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

[FRL–9924–27–Region–6] 

Clean Water Act Section 303(d): 

Availability of List Decisions 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of availability. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of the Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA’s) decision to 

partially approve and proposal to 

partially disapprove Louisiana’s 2014 

Clean Water Act Section 303(d) 

submission of water quality limited 

segments and associated pollutants. 

EPA requests public comment on waters 

associated with the proposed 

disapproval and may, based on 

comment, amend its proposal prior to 

final action. 

On February 26, 2015, EPA partially 

approved and proposed to partially 

disapprove Louisiana’s 2014 Section 

303(d) submission, or list. Specifically, 

EPA approved Louisiana’s listing of 279 

waterbody-pollutant combinations, and 

associated priority rankings. EPA 

proposed to disapprove Louisiana’s 

decision not to list 43 water quality 

limited segments and associated 

pollutants constituting 93 waterbodypollutant combinations. EPA also 

proposed to add these waterbodypollutant combinations to the 2014 

Section 303(d) list because applicable 

numeric water quality standards were 

not attained in these segments for one 

of the following parameters: Dissolved 

oxygen (marine criterion); turbidity; and 

minerals (individually or a combination 

of sulfates, chlorides, and/or total 

dissolved solids). 

EPA is providing the public the 

opportunity to review its proposed 

additions to Louisiana’s 2014 Section 

303(d) list. EPA will consider and 

respond to public comments specific to 

the proposed addition of 43 segments 

and associated pollutants and may, 

based on comment, amend its proposed 

additions before finalizing Louisiana’s 

2014 Section 303(d) list. Comments not 

associated with the segments proposed 

for addition to the 2014 Section 303(d) 

list or associated with the 279 

waterbody pollutant combinations 

previously approved by EPA are not 

solicited. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted in 

writing to EPA on or before March 30, 

2015. 

ADDRESSES: Comments on the decisions 

should be sent to Evelyn Rosborough, 

Environmental Protection Specialist, 

Water Quality Protection Division, U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency 

Region 6, 1445 Ross Ave., Dallas, TX 

75202–2733, telephone (214) 665–7515, 

facsimile (214) 665–6490, or email: 

rosborough.evelyn@epa.gov. Oral 

comments will not be considered. 

Copies of the documents which explain 

the rationale for EPA’s decisions and a 

list of the 43 water quality-limited 

segments and associated pollutant 

combinations EPA proposes for 

inclusion on Louisiana’s Final 2014 

Section 303(d) list can be obtained at 

EPA Region 6’s Web site at: http://

www.epa.gov/region6/water/npdes/

tmdl/index.htm, or by writing or calling 

Ms. Rosborough at the above address. 

Underlying documents from the 

administrative record for these 

decisions are available for public 

inspection at the above address. Please 

contact Ms. Rosborough to schedule an 

inspection.

Evelyn Rosborough at (214) 665–7515. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

303(d) of the Clean Water Act (CWA) 

requires that each State identify those 

waters for which existing technologybased pollution controls are not 

stringent enough to attain or maintain 

State water quality standards. For those 

waters, States are required to establish 

Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) 

according to a priority ranking. EPA’s 

Water Quality Planning and 

Management regulations include 

requirements related to the 

implementation of Section 303(d) of the 

CWA (40 CFR 130.7). The regulations 

require States to identify water qualitylimited waters still requiring TMDLs 

every two years. The list of waters still 

needing TMDLs must also include 

priority rankings and must identify the 

waters targeted for TMDL development 

during the next two years (40 CFR 

130.7). 

Consistent with EPA’s regulations, 

Louisiana submitted to EPA its listing 

decisions under Section 303(d) on 

August 19, 2014. On February 26, 2015, 

EPA approved Louisiana’s listing of 279 

waterbody-pollutant combinations and 

associated priority rankings. EPA 

proposed to disapprove Louisiana’s 

decisions not to list 43 waterbodies. 

These waterbodies were proposed for 

addition by EPA because the applicable 

numeric water quality standards for 

dissolved oxygen; or turbidity; or 

mineral(s) were not attained in these 

segments. EPA solicits public comment 

on its identification of 43 additional 

waters and associated pollutants 

constituting 93 waterbody pollutant 

combinations for inclusion on 

Louisiana’s Final 2014 Section 303(d) 

list. 

Dated: February 26, 2015.

Director, Water Quality Protection Division.
