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

2 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.

No 2026 Integrated Report waterbody lies within the proximity threshold of the reported location.

SMARTS TMDL records Evidence: SMARTS-reported

No TMDL records for this facility in the SMARTS TMDL export.

Reported monitoring results Evidence: facility-reported

Numeric Action Level (NAL) screening is being independently validated and is not shown. Nothing on this page states whether a result exceeded a NAL.

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.

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.
