EPA's Final Decision To Withdraw Phase I Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for Copper in certain New Jersey Waters of New York-New Jersey Harbor

摘要

EPA has determined that certain New Jersey waters of the New York-New Jersey Harbor are not water quality-limited for copper, and therefore, Phase I copper TMDLs are not required for these water segments. The New Jersey Harbor waters for which Phase I Copper TMDLS are being withdrawn are defined as Newark Bay, Hackensack River below the Oradell Dam, Passaic River below the Dundee Dam, Raritan River below the Fieldsville Dam, and Raritan Bay. EPA is hereby issuing public notice of its final decision to withdraw the Phase I TMDLs for copper established by EPA on January 24, 1996.
