On July 25, 2007, the commission adopted the TMDL.
The EPA approved it on September 25, 2007, at which time it became part of the state’s Water Quality Management Plan. |
From time to time, it is necessary to revise TMDLs to account for changing conditions in the watershed, such as new or amended permits, or urban growth, or to correct oversights in the original TMDL report. Revisions to the load allocations in TMDLs are made via the state’s WQMP, which is updated quarterly. The WQMP provides projected effluent limits for use in planning and permitting activities. The TCEQ reviews all applications for new and amended permits for conformance with applicable portions of the WQMP, including adopted TMDLs. Revisions to the TMDL are documented in the approved WQMP updates listed below. |
Learn more about WQMP updates and about opportunities to comment on revisions to them. |
