- Title
- Report, cost/benefit study of the impacts of potential nutrient controls for Colorado point source discharges
- Abstract
- The Colorado Department of Health and Environment (CDPHE) Water Quality Control Division is developing an approach to manage nutrients in Colorado waters. The primary driver for this effort has been an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) directive to reduce nutrients in waters under jurisdiction of the federal Clean Water Act (CWA). The Division's proposal to control the discharge of nutrients relies largely on a technology-based control regulation that would establish effluent limits for both total phosphorus (TP) and total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) for many domestic and some nondomestic wastewater treatment facilities that become subject to the control regulation will have to invest in capital improvements and ongoing operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.

- Antidegradation significance determination for new or increased water quality impacts : procedural guidance
- Abstract
- The Basic Standards and Methodologies for Surface Waters (Regulation No. 31, 5 CCR 1002-31) contains antidegradation provisions which provide three separate levels of antidegradation protection (see section 31.8). This document is intended to provide guidance to Water Quality Control Division staff and to the public regarding the implementation of the antidegradation significance tests found in Regulation No. 31. This guidance is designed as a framework to provide a documented methodology and to ensure antidegradation reviews are conducted in a consistent manner. Unique situations will be assessed on a case-by-case basis, using site-specific data and methodology.

- Colorado's phase II municipal guidance : a guide to application requirements and program development for coverage under Colorado's phase II municipal stormwater discharge permit
- Abstract
- The federal Clean Water Act requires that stormwater discharges from certain types of facilities be authorized under stormwater discharge permits. The goal of the stormwater permits program is to reduce the amount of pollutants entering streams, lakes and rivers as a result of runoff from residential, commercial and industrial areas. The original 1990 regulation covered municipal (i.e., publicly-owned) storm sewer systems for municipalities over 100,000 population. The regulation was expanded in 1999 to include smaller municipalities as well. This expansion of the program is referred to as Phase II.
