Evidence: identification corroborated San Sevaine Channel CAR8012100020080924023459

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

Nearest distance from the reported facility location: 195 m. Method receiving_water/2.

2026 Integrated Report status Evidence: State-published

San Sevaine Channel 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.
