| Abstract | Long Description |
Lake Ballinger was listed by the State of Washington under Section 303(d) of the federal Clean Water Act for failing to meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) human health criteria for total phosphorus. A Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) study for Lake Ballinger was submitted by Ecology and approved by EPA in 1993. This Quality Assurance Project Plan describes the procedure that will be used to monitor the effectiveness of the TMDL. The objectives of the study are to determine if (1) past restoration treatments have been effective in restoring Lake Ballinger to its designated uses and (2) current phosphorus concentrations are consistent with the load allocations set in the TMDL. |
