Description This TMDL study (water cleanup plan) was conducted in response to federal Clean Water Act 303(d) listings for fecal coliform bacteria in four tributaries to Totten Inlet (Pierre, Burns, Kennedy, and Schneider creeks), two tributaries to Eld Inlet (McLane and Perry creeks), and one tributary to Little Skookum Inlet (Skookum Creek). Target bacteria reductions were estimated for these tributaries using the roll-back method.

The temperature listing for Skookum Creek is also addressed. A temperature listing for Kennedy Creek is deferred pending implementation of a Habitat Conservation Plan.

An Implementation Strategy is also included in this report.
