Clean Water Act Section 303(d): Availability of List Decisions 
Correction

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Correction: Notice of Availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This action corrects a Federal Register notice that published 
on November 9, 2010 at 75 FR 68783 announcing the availability of EPA 
decisions identifying water quality limited segments and associated 
pollutants in California to be listed pursuant to Clean Water Act 
section 303(d)(2), and requests public comment. This announcement 
corrects the previously published decision date and public comment 
deadline. Section 303(d)(2) requires that states submit and EPA approve 
or disapprove lists of waters for which existing technology-based 
pollution controls are not stringent enough to attain or maintain state 
water quality standards and for which total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) 
must be prepared.
    On November 12, 2010 EPA approved California's 2008-2010 submitted 
303(d) list of impaired waters and associated pollutants and 
disapproved California's decisions not to list several water quality 
limited segments as impaired and additional associated pollutants for 
several others. EPA identified these additional water bodies and 
pollutants for inclusion on the State's 2008-2010 section 303(d) list. 
The waterbodies and associated pollutants are identified in Table 3 of 
the decision document available at the Web site link provided below.
    EPA is providing the public the opportunity to review its decisions 
to add waters and pollutants to California's 2008-2010 section 303(d) 
list, as required by EPA's Public Participation regulations. EPA will 
consider public comments received, and may revise its decision if 
appropriate. EPA solicits public comment only on the additional waters 
and associated pollutants for inclusion on California's 2008-2010 
Section 303(d) list.

DATES: Comments must be submitted to EPA on or before December 23, 
2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Comments on the proposed decisions 
should be sent to Valentina Cabrera Stagno or Dave Guiliano, Water 
Division (WTR-2), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region IX, 75 
Hawthorne Street, San Francisco, CA 94105, telephone (415) 972-3434 or 
(415) 947-4133, facsimile (415) 947-3537, e-mail [email protected] or [email protected]. Oral comments will 
not be considered. Material concerning California's 303(d) list which

IX's Web site at http://www.epa.gov/region9/water/tmdl/california.html
