    NUTRIENT TMDLS FOR SIX ARKANSAS LAKES FINAL JANUARY 16, 2007 NUTRIENT TMDLS FOR SIX ARKANSAS LAKES Prepared for EPA Region VI Water Quality Protection Division Permits, Oversight, and TMDL Team Dallas, TX 75202 Contract No. 68-C-02-108 Task Order #127 Prepared by FTN Associates, Ltd. 3 Innwood Circle, Suite 220 Little Rock, AR 72211 FINAL January 16, 2007 FINAL Nutrient TMDLs For Six Arkansas Lakes January 16, 2007 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Section 303(d) of the Federal Clean Water Act requires states to identify waterbodies that do not meet water quality standards and to develop total maximum daily pollutant loads (TMDLs) for those waterbodies. A TMDL is the amount of a pollutant that a waterbody can assimilate without exceeding the established water quality standard for that pollutant. Through a TMDL, pollutant loads can be allocated to point sources and nonpoint sources discharging to a waterbody. This report presents TMDLs for nutrients for Bear Creek Lake (an upland reservoir), Mallard Lake (a lowland reservoir), First Old River Lake, Grand Lake, Horseshoe Lake, and Old Town Lake (oxbows). All lakes are located in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain ecoregion, with the exception of First Old River Lake, which is located in the South Central Plains ecoregion. All six lakes were identified by the United States (US) Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to be in violation of Arkansas’ narrative water-quality criteria for nutrients. EPA added these six lakes to the final 2002 303(d) list for Arkansas and they were carried forward to the draft 2004 303(d) list and the final 2004 303(d) list.
