On August 17, 2008, EPA's Assistant Administrator for Water designated the Los Angeles River as a "Special Case" as defined by the EPA-Corps 1989 Memorandum ofAgreement (MOA) regarding coordination on matters ofgeographic jurisdiction.

Specifically, EPA analyzed the river's status as a "Traditional Navigable Water," one ofseveral categories ofjurisdictional waters under the Act. We conclude that the mainstem ofthe Los Angeles River is a "Traditional Navigable Water" from its origins at the confluence of Arroyo Calabasas and Bell Creek to San Pedro Bay at the Pacific Ocean, a distance of approximately 51 miles . In reaching this conclusion, Region 9 and Headquarters staffconsidered a number offactors, including the ability ofthe Los Angeles River under current conditions offlow and depth to support navigation by watercraft; the history ofnavigation by watercraft on the river; the current commercial and recreational uses of the river; and plans for future
