EPA Issues TMDL Update Report for West Virginia

In 1997 EPA entered into a consent decree with environmentalists that required EPA to achieve certain benchmarks in developing the Clean Water Act 303(d)/TMDL program in West Virginia. As part of that settlement, EPA is required to issue an annual report of the status of the TMDL program. The 2009 report can be found here.

While EPA is required to comply with the consent order, most of the TMDL program is now implemented by West Virginia DEP. Persons with an interest in the TMDL program can go here or contact Dave Montali at 304 926-0499
