Stream Selection (Shell Creek)  18 miles from DEQ  2011 NLCD –Low percentage of developed land (10.0% of the watershed) –High percentage of crop land (55.1% of the watershed)  Easy access to the stream  DO impaired –10 out of 21 samples are less than WQSs (June – November)  Data requested to OKC (2/11): Data will be obtained before March (No cross section and CBOD data). ODEQ Shell Creek TMDL

Monitoring Plan  2 field samples for calibration and validation  Early summer of 2016 (Proposed)  Suggested sample flow for Sample –7Q2 or 1 cfs (sample after 7 consecutive days without rain) –Median flow or 3.1 cfs (sample after moderate rain)  Sampling methods –Standard operating procedures (OWRB, 2013) –Volunteer Stream Monitoring: A Methods Manual (EPA, 1997)  Who can monitor? –Budget –Available fund ODEQ Shell Creek TMDL
