Katherine Antos, Water Quality Team Leader Water Quality Goal Implementation Team Coordinator U.S. EPA Chesapeake Bay Program Office Chesapeake Bay Program Management Board May 9, 2012 Proposal for a Supplemental Wastewater Indicator

Background Maryland suggested alternative wastewater indicator since wastewater data in current Reducing Pollution Indicators are affected by annual weather variations but other loads are not Discussed with the Wastewater Treatment Workgroup, Water Quality Goal Implementation Team, and Management Board between October 2011 and April 2012 Guiding principles: – Maintain current Reducing Pollution Indicator based on wastewater monitoring data – Add supplemental indicator to clearly communicate on-the-ground efforts – Minimize reporting burden to the jurisdictions 2

Proposed Supplemental Indicator On April 9, WQGIT approved the following indicator pending review of the indicator results: “The number and/or percentage of significant wastewater facilities with nutrient treatment technology operational and installed that will attain the wasteload allocation at the permitted flow. Indicator data to also include facilities that achieve permit limits through trading/offset programs.” Indicator would be based on whether permit limits for significant facilities have reached their effective date April 30: WQGIT and WWTWG approved sharing the following options with the Management Board – New York abstained 3

Option 1: 4

Option 2: 5

Features Data based on same reporting period as Reducing Pollution Indicator Will show same years as Reducing Pollution Indicator Executive summary will focus on watershed- wide progress. State-specific progress available online In the future, could consider incorporating numbers or percents based on design flow 6

Decisions Requested 1.Do you approve the adoption of a supplemental indicator that tracks significant wastewater facilities that that are meeting Bay TMDL WLAs? 2.If yes, would you prefer that this indicator report the number of significant facilities or the percent of significant facilities? 7
