Purpose of the meeting
The Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) seek written and oral comments from interested persons 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 public notice appears in the Virginia Register of Regulations on July 6, 2009. The public comment period begins on July 16, 2009 and ends on August 17, 2009.
