Abstract
The Federal Clean Water Act requires the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to develop a total maximum daily load (TMDL) for waters that have been identified on the state’s 303(d) list as impaired by a pollutant. The purpose of these sediment and nutrient TMDLs for Rock Creek Lake is to calculate the maximum amount of sediment and nutrients that the lake can receive and still meet water quality standards, and then develop an allocation of that amount of sediment and nutrients to the sources in the watershed.
