APPROPRIATION ADJUSTMENT ACCEPTING REIMBURSEMENT <br />AGREEMENT FUNDS FOR NEWPORT BAY TMDL COMPLIANCE <br />July 15, 2013 <br />Page 2 <br />In 1996, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board identified Newport Bay as an <br />"impaired water body," classifying it as too polluted or otherwise degraded to meet water quality <br />standards. In 2002, the United States Environmental Protection Agency established the maximum <br />amount of a pollutant that a water body can receive and still safely meet water quality standards. <br />These limits, or Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs), contain requirements for studies, <br />monitoring, and development of programs to attain these reduction targets over a multiyear period. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT <br />There is no environmental impact associated with this action. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />Funds received in the total amount of $60,000 will be deposited into the Federal Clean Water <br />Protection Enterprise Fund revenue account (05717002-57000) and appropriated into the Federal <br />Clean Water Protection Enterprise Fund expenditure account (05717640-62300). <br />APPROVED AS TO FUNDS AND ACCOUNTS: <br />Raul Godinez II, P E.
