Abstract
The Federal Clean Water Act requires the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) 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. Spring Lake has been identified as impaired by turbidity. The purpose of the TMDL for Spring Lake is to calculate the maximum allowable non-algal turbidity loading that will meet water quality standards and fully supports its designated uses. The water quality impairment will be addressed by using transparency as measured by Secchi depth measurements as the target.
