Where can the 303(d) list of impaired water bodies be found?
[ANS:] Appendix 3 of the IGP
True or false: if a waterbody has 303(d) listed impairment(s), a
discharger must sample for the impairment(s) no matter what
[ANS:] False. Facilities are not required to sample for a certain
impairment if the industrial activity done there are unlikely
contributors.
A discharger is part of a facility that is unlikely to contribute
pathogens to a receiving water listed as impaired for pathogens
via 303(d) water bodies list. In which scenario would they have to
sample for pathogens? [ANS:] If pathogens were identified in their
pollutant source assessment.
