H) Discharges to Impaired Waters
a) 303d Listed Waters 6.2.4.2a
Yes No
Yes No N/A
Yes No N/A
Does the facility discharge to an impaired water that does not have an established TMDL?
(i.e. Is the receiving water body or downstream water on the 303d list?)
Has the facility monitored (at least 1/year) at each outfall for the pollutant of concern?
Note: This monitoring does not apply after 1 year if the pollutant of concern is not detected
above natural background levels in the stormwater discharge.
If monitoring does not detect the pollutant above natural background levels, has the facility
provided written documentation with the SWPPP that the pollutant is not present or not
expected to be present in the facility’s stormwater discharge?
Were there any deficiencies regarding the 303d Listed Waters?
No Yes

b) Established Total Maximum Daily Load 6.2.4.2b
Yes No
Does the facility discharge to a receiving water body which has an approved TMDL?
Yes No N/A Has the facility conducted monitoring for the pollutant of concern listed in the TMDL?
Note: The facility must conduct sampling for the TMDL pollutant no less than 4 times during the
12 month period after coverage under the permit or after the required annual review of the
TMDL list. If monitoring does not detect the pollutant of concern then sampling for that
pollutant may be discontinued. If the pollutant is detected and the appropriate water quality
standard is not met, monitoring must continue. Progress toward the pollutant reduction goal
of the TMDL must be demonstrated.
Were there any deficiencies regarding TMDLs?
No Yes
