Idaho DEQ 2018/2020 §305(b) - §303(d) Integrated Report (Rivers, Streams, Lakes, Reservoirs)

Idaho DEQ 2018/2020 §305b/303d Integrated Report The federal Clean Water Act requires states to conduct a biennial comprehensive analysis of state waters to determine if water bodies meet state water quality standards and thus support beneficial uses, or if additional pollution controls are needed. DEQ meets this requirement by preparing Idaho's Integrated Report. After a public comment period, DEQ submits the Integrated Report to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for approval and makes it available to the public. The report serves as a guide for developing and implementing water quality improvement plans (total maximum daily loads) to protect water quality and achieve federal and state water quality standards. An Integrated Report must be approved by EPA before it can be used by a state to guide its management decisions.
