4 E. coli as a fecal indicator Measure potential for fecal contamination, not actual presence of pathogens Long-term measure of conditions, not an assessment of human risk Contact Recreation Standard set by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, primary standard is 126 mpn/dl Assessed using geometric mean over 5+ year period
5 Taylor Slough South (2002) E. coli: 545 mpn/dl Spicewood Trib to Shoal (2002) E. coli: 786 mpn/dl Waller Creek (2004) E. coli: 183 1,015 mpn/dl Walnut Creek (2006) E. coli: 902 mpn/dl
6 Austin s Options to Address Impairments Option Do nothing Find the problem, fix it, monitor for at least 2 years Change designated use with Use Attainability Analysis Watershed Protection Plan Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Implication for Austin Exposes citywide stormwater MS4 permit to modification, does not protect citizens Distributed sources extremely difficult to find, leaves MS4 permit exposed to modification Will not fix all the problems, leaves MS4 permit exposed to modification Significantly more complicated public process, no guarantee of protection for MS4 permit Removes liability from MS4, voluntarily, changeable, no penalty for failure
7 TMDL/I-Plan Process TCEQ develops TMDL how much bacteria needs to be reduced Stakeholders develop Implementation Plan who will do what to reduce bacteria developed by coordinating committee facilitated by paid TCEQ contractor 5 year planning period voluntary, no penalty if bacteria are not reduced may be developed in parallel with TMDL
