Evidence: not confirmed Evidence: candidate, awaiting review Awaiting review

Receiving-water text as reported by the discharger in SMARTS; no waterbody identification has been confirmed.

Why it is not confirmed (1)
  • C1 name is only a prefix of official names

10 official waterbodies share this name; none is assigned without review.

Impaired waters and TMDLs

Two kinds of information, kept apart: 2026 Integrated Report waterbodies near the reported location (geographic proximity only), and TMDL records that SMARTS lists for this facility. Neither establishes where the facility discharges; see Receiving water for the facility's own statement.

Nearby waterbodies Evidence: geographic proximity

Spatial proximity only; discharge pathway not established. Being near a waterbody does not mean the facility discharges to it.

Compliance and enforcement records Evidence: SMARTS record

These are records as the State Water Board publishes them in SMARTS, with the source's own types and statuses. They are not a compliance determination or rating. A record listed here is not proof of a violation beyond what the source states, and the absence of records does not establish compliance.

Compliance and enforcement records by type
Record typeRecordsAs publishedDatesRetrievedList
Violations0 0 Violation · 0 Potential (preliminary) · 0 Dismissed — Oct 21, 2026

Each record type is counted by its own SMARTS identifier. A violation and the enforcement action that cites it are two records in two lists; they are never added together.
