Final TMDL Report: Fecal Coliform TMDL for the Ortega River (WBID 2213P)

This report presents the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for fecal coliform bacteria for the Ortega River in the Lower St. Johns Basin. The river was verified as impaired for fecal coliform and therefore was included on the Verified List of impaired waters for the Lower St. Johns Basin that was adopted by Secretarial Order on May 27, 2004. The TMDL establishes the allowable fecal coliform loadings to the Ortega River that would restore the waterbody so that it meets its applicable water quality criterion for fecal coliform.
