| | 1: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | 2012 November | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | Over the last 30 years, waters in Illinois have been monitored for chemical, biological and physical conditions. In some cases, the conditions of those rivers and lakes fall short of the need to support basic water quality use goals. These waters are deemed impaired since they cannot meet use expectations set for them under state and federal law. When this happens Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) reports are developed for impaired waters to determine the maximum amount of a pollutant a water body can receive and still meet water quality standards and support its designated uses. Designated uses include aquatic life, public water supply, swimming, recreation, fish consumption, and aesthetic quality. | | | | Date Created: | 10 30 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | Fact Sheet | | | | ISL ID: | 000000050501 Original UID: 168847 FIRST WORD: TMDL | |
