Region 6 EPA suggestions to Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality for development of missing water quality numeric criteria for Priority and Non-Priority Pollutants being discharged into waters of the state of Louisiana.
Report prepared by Wilma Subra
 On September 11, 2009, Region 6 of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued recommendations to the Office of Environmental Assessment of the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality for revisions in preparation for the triennial review of Louisiana Water Quality Standards. EPA Region 6 recommended that the State of Louisiana adopt water quality criteria for toxic substances consisting of Priority and Non-Priority Pollutants that are currently being discharged into Louisiana surface waters for which Louisiana currently does not have numeric criteria. The EPA recommended criteria values for each chemical and recommended the State of Louisiana adopt numerical criteria for the chemicals or demonstrate that the chemicals are not interfering with designated uses.
