This is derived co-occurrence between a calculated NAL comparison and the official 303(d) listing for this waterbody. An NAL exceedance triggers Exceedance Response Actions under the permit; it is not a violation and does not establish that any facility caused or contributed to this impairment.

Derived facility associations

Industrial stormwater facilities geographically associated with this waterbody. These are derived spatial associations, not Water Board findings.
