The First Turning Point
Wide Variability in Phosphorus Loading
Phosphorus Neutralizes VERY Slowly
Lake Elsinore: Oct. 1, 1997
1) Mystic Lake Subsidence 7) BMP Implementation 2) Asymmetric Loading 8) Changing Land Uses 3) Long Decay Cycle 9) Natural Loading 4) Role of Zooplankton 10) Limited Dairy Runoff 5) Salinity Constraints 11) Measuring Compliance 6) Variable Lake Levels 12) Status of Recycled H2O
Must Update the TMDL to Account for:
Competing & Conflicting Mandates
1) Stable Lake Levels 2) Stream Habitat 3) Downstream Water Rights 4) Flood Control Protection
On-site Retention & Urban Runoff Diversion vs… In-Lake Treatment Strategies vs…
1) EPA Regulations 2) CEQA 3) Recreational Inconvenience 4) TMDL Compliance Metrics
The Second Turning Point
