Description The purpose of this water quality improvement report is to address temperature problems in the SFNR watershed so that water quality is improved and designated uses are restored and protected. More specifically, the goal is for the river and its tributaries to meet the Washington State water quality standards for temperature. The TMDL analysis uses the existing data and a calibrated model to describe temperature processes in the watershed, determine the loading capacity for temperature, and set load allocations, wasteload allocations, and a margin of safety.
