1 Jordan River Total Maximum Daily Load Study Presented By: James Harris Utah Division of Water Quality
2 Jordan River Watershed TMDL Study Area No Introduction Necessary
3 A Few Things to Point Out... Lower River - Flood Control Several Wastewater Sources Several Major Diversions Utah Lake
4 TMDL Process Water Quality Standards 1. Waterbody Definition 2. Designated Beneficial Uses 3. Water Quality Criteria Indicators (Total Phosphorus) Routine Monitoring 303(d) List Waterbodies Requiring Development of TMDLs
5 TMDL Components TMDL = WLA + LA + MOS WLA = Waste Load Allocation (Point Sources) LA = Load Allocation (Nonpoint Sources) MOS = Margin of Safety Source Identification Load Reductions Implementation Strategy
6 Impaired Uses Beneficial Use Coldwater Fishery Warmwater Fishery Recreation Agriculture Parameter of Concern Temperature Dissolved Oxygen E. coli Dissolved Solids
7 Impaired Segments Parameters of Concern Impaired Segments Dissolved Oxygen 1, 2 Temperature 5, 6, 7 TDS 1, 5, 6, 7, 8 E. coli 2, 3, 5
8 Impaired Segments Parameters of Concern Impaired Segments Dissolved Oxygen 1, 2 Temperature 5, 6, 7 TDS 1, 5, 6, 7, 8 E. coli 2, 3, 5
9 Impaired Segments Parameters of Concern Impaired Segments Dissolved Oxygen 1, 2 Temperature 5, 6, 7 TDS 1, 5, 6, 7, 8 E. coli 2, 3, 5
10 Impaired Segments Parameters of Concern Impaired Segments Dissolved Oxygen 1, 2 Temperature 5, 6, 7 TDS 1, 5, 6, 7, 8 E. coli 2, 3, 5
11 Stream Load Calculations Load (mass/time) = Flow (cfs) x Concentration (mg/l) x conversion factor Monthly loads calculated where possible to allow definition of seasonal loading patterns. Annual loads defined as sum of monthly loads and incorporates seasonal variation. USGS continuous flow records were paired with DWQ monitoring at data rich sites.
12 Pollutant Source Calculations Utah Lake Tributary Streams Some streams not considered due to limited flow, diversions to irrigation systems Permitted discharge Central Valley WRF, South Valley WRF, South Davis WWTP.
13 Pollutant Load Calculations Stormwater Stormwater catchments- Salt Lake and Utah counties, none in Davis County. Direct surface runoff Areas outside of stormwater catchment that drain to Jordan River. Groundwater Flow based on USGS Salt Lake Valley model (Lambert 1995) WQ data from all wells within 2 miles of Jordan River.
