The Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment (CDPHE) has identified Sanchez Reservoir in Costilla County as not supporting its designated uses due to the presence of elevated fish tissue concentrations of mercury that have resulted in Fish Consumption Advisories. Mercury concentrations at the levels observed present a significant health risk to persons who consume listed fish from the reservoir. Because Sanchez Reservoir does not support its designated uses, a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) is required for mercury loading to the lake., submitted to Environmental Protection Agency, Region 8 ; submitted by Tetra Tech, Inc., "June 2008.", This document was developed for the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment (CDPHE) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Region 8, based on studies prepared by Tetra Tech, Inc.

Certain types of algae blooms can produce toxins that can be harmful to humans and animals. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) designed this toolkit to assist recreational water managers in assessing their water bodies for potential health impacts of toxic algae. This algae bloom risk-management toolkit is not a standard or regulation, nor does it create new legal obligations. The toolkit was created as a supplement to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)'s revised recommended recreational guidelines for 2019 (US EPA, 2019). The toolkit is advisory in nature, informational in content, and contains specific response steps intended to assist in the management of recreational waters to protect public health., Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed January 2022)
