Description The freshwater tributaries in the eastern Padilla Bay watershed have listings on the federal Clean Water Act 303(d) list of impaired waters. This water quality study findings report addresses areas in Joe Leary Slough, Big Indian Slough, Little Indian Slough, and No Name Slough that exceed (do not meet) fecal coliform bacteria water quality criteria.

The goal of this report is to provide the technical analysis necessary to develop a bacteria total maximum daily load (TMDL) for the eastern Padilla Bay tributaries. The TMDL will be written to achieve compliance with Washington State water quality standards.
