| Purpose of the meeting The Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will hold a final public meeting on the development of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Implementation Plan for Middle River and its tributaries in Augusta County.The Upper Middle River, Lower Middle River, Moffett Creek, and Polecat Draft were originally listed as impaired in the 1996 303d Report. All streams were listed for violations of the water quality standard for bacteria and the Upper Middle River segment and Moffett Creek were additionally listed for the general aquatic life (benthic) standard. TMDLs for bacteria were developed to address the bacterial impairments in all streams. A TMDL for sediment in Upper Middle River and Moffett Creek were developed to address the benthic impairments. These TMDLs were approved by EPA on August 10, 2004 and are available on DEQ’s website at http://gisweb.deq.virginia.gov/tmdlapp/tmdl_report_search.cfm. The draft Implementation Plan will be available for review on the web no later than December 10, 2009 at http://www.deq.virginia.gov/tmdl/iprpts.html. The public comment period for this final public meeting will begin on December 10, 2009 and will end on Monday, January 11, 2010. | |
