Evidence: identification corroborated Fullerton Creek CAR8456100020161109049702

Receiving water reported by facility — waterbody identification corroborated by geographic evidence.

Nearest distance from the reported facility location: 189 m. Method receiving_water/2.

2026 Integrated Report status Evidence: State-published

Fullerton Creek is not on the 2026 303(d) list.

Published by the State Water Resources Control Board (2026 California Integrated Report, Appendix A). Listing status is taken from Appendix A only.. A listing describes the waterbody, not this facility. Waterbody profile.

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.

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.
