EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Upon approval by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) this document will establish
Total Maximum l)aily l.oads for nitrogen and phosphorus in the Patapseo River Mesohaline
Stream Segment - PATMH (not including Bodkin Creek). Ilereaf'ler this stream segment will be
referred to as the Baltimore Harbor or the t larbor (basin number 02130903). The Baltimore
Harbor drains into the Chesapeake Bay and is part of the Patapsco/Back River Tributary Strategy
Basin.
Baltimore ltarbor (basin number 02130903) was identified on the State's 1996 list of water
quality limited segments (WQLSs) submitted to the U.S. EPA by the MaD'land Department of
the Environment (MDE) as impaired b) nutrients. The Baltimore ltarbor has also been
identified on the 303(d) list as impaired by bacteria (fecal coliform) (1998), toxics
(polychlorinated biphenvls, or PCBs) (1998), metals (chromium. zinc and lead) (1998),
suspended sediments (1996), and impacts to biological communities (2004). These other
impairments will be addressed separately. The TMDI.s described within this document were
developed to address the water quality impairments associated with excess nutrient Ioadings.
The TMDLs for the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus ,.,,'ere determined using a time-variable,
three-dimensional water quality eutrophication model package, which includes a watershed
model (Hydrological Simulation Program Fortran (lISPF)), a hydrodynamic model (Curvilinear
I lydrodynamic in Three Dimensions (CH3D)), a '*ater quality model (Corps of Fngineers-Water
Quality-Integrated Compartment Model (CE.-QUAL-ICM)), and a sediment flux model.
I.oading caps for total nitrogen and total phosphorus entering the Baltimore Harbor are
established for growing season conditions and for average annual flow conditions.
To assure that critical conditions are addressed, the growing season TMDL for nitrogen is
2,145,750 Ibs/growing season, and the growing season TMDI. for phosphorus is 149,152
Ibs/grov, ing season. These TMDLs apply from May I through October 3 I. The allowable loads
have been allocated betv, een point and nonpoint sources. The nonpoint sources arc allocated
459,912 Ibs/growing season of total nitrogen, and 12,776 Ibs/growing season of total phosphorus.
The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination S3,stem (NPDES) point sources, including
municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) loads, NPDES industrial discharge loads and
NPDES regulated urban storm`.`.'ater loads, are allocated 1,642,014 Ibslgrowing season of
nitrogen, and 113,212 Ibs/grov,'ing season of phosphorus. A future allocation (FA) load to
account for future growth and an explicit margin of safety comprises the remainder of the
nitrogen and phosphorus allocations.
The average annual TMDI. for nitrogen is 5,323,963 Ibs/).ear, and the average annual TMDL for
phosphorus is 324,309 Ibs/year. The allo`.sable loads have been allocated betv, een point and
nonpoint sources. The nonpoint source loads are allocated 1,246,036 Ibs/year of total nitrogen
and 34,654 Ibs/).ear of total phosphorus. The point sources, includingNPDES WWTP loads,
NPDES industrial discharge loads and NPDF'S urban stormwater loads, are allocated 3,976,215
Ibs/year of total nitrogen and 243,127 Ibs/year of total phosphorus. A future allocation (FA) load
to account for future growth and an explicit margin of safeb' comprises the remainder of the
nitrogen and phosphorus allocations.

FINAl.,

Several legislative and policy-derived programs will be utilized to implement these TMDLs.
First, NPDES permits will reflect TMDL Ioadings as they are renewed. Additionally, the
Chesapeake Bay Restoration Fund will be used to finance Enhanced Nutrient Removal (ENR)
upgrades to WW'|'Ps discharging into the Baltimore |larbor. Second, Maryland has several wellestablished programs to draw upon, including Maryland's Tributary Strategies for Nutrient
Reductions, developed in accordance with the Chesapeake Bay 2000 Agreement. Third,
Maryland's Water QualiD' Improvement Act (WQIA) of 1998 requires that nutrient management
plans be implemented for all agricultural lands throughout Maryland. Finally. Maryland has
adopted a watershed cycling strategy, which will ensure that future monitoring and water quality
evaluations are conducted.
The water quality goal of these TMDLs is to reduce excessive algal blooms that result in high
chlorophyll a concentrations, and maintain the dissolved oxygen concentrations at levels above
the water quality criteria for the specific designated uses of the Baltimore ttarbor. MDE has
described the legislative and policy-derived programs that will result in significant nutrient
reductions and the achievement of water quality standards for all designated uses in the
Baltimore Harbor except the Deep Channel.
Based on information generated in the TMDL analysis, MDE is unable to ensure that the Dcep
Channel Refuge designated use water quality criterion tbr dissolved oxygen can be met at all
times that it is applicable. The regions to which the Deep Channel Reluge designated use applies
represent approximately 10% of the area of the Harbor. These regions include the main
navigation channel of the Ilarbor, the channels into Curtis Bay, Middle Branch, and Northwest
Branch and associated anchorages (COMAR 26.08.02.08). The region subject to potential now
attainment is in the main shipping channel, from the mouth of the ltarbor to Fort McHenry, and
represents < 5% of the area of the Harbor. The volume of water that does not meet the dissolved
oxygen criteria represents approximately 3% of the total volume of the Harbor.
The reason that the designated use cannot be fully attained is due to the deepening of the natural
river channel into a navigation channel that began in 1836 and continues today. In the past 170
)'ears the dredging effort has incrementally deepened and expanded the size of the channels and
their associated turning basins and anchorages. As a result, the channels and the water that flows
within them, has been hydrologically modified. In a portion of the main navigation channel,
from the mouth of the tlarbor to Fort McHenD', it has been observed that water from the upper
portion of the water column does not mix with the lower portion of the water column. This
observed stratification of the w'ater column, and the lack of mixing associated with it. occurs
ever),' spring/summer/fall. As a result, there is a limited region within the navigation channel that
does not meet the dissolved oxygen criteria during the observed spring/summer/fall stratification
period. Additionally, a computer model simulation was conducted that removed all
anthropogenic sources of nutrients to the system and returned the watershed to a forest. Even
under these conditions, the results indicated that the designated use could not be attained.

INTRODUCTION

Section 303(d)(I)(C) of the federal Clean Water Act (CWA) and the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agencs's (EPA) implementing regulations direct each state to develop a Total
Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for each impaired water qualit T limited segment (WQI.S) on the
Section 303(d) list, taking into account seasonal variations and a protective margin of safety
(MOS) to account [br uncertainty. A TMDL reflects the total pollutant loading of the impairing
substance a waterbody can receive and still meet water quality standards.
TMDI,s are established to achieve and maintain water quality standards. A water quality standard
is the combination of a designated use for a particular body of water and the water quality criteria
designed to protect that use. Designated uses for the Patapsco River Mesohaline Stream Segment
- PATMH (hereafter referred to as the Baltimore Harbor or the Harbor) are: (1) Migratory Fish
Spawning and Nurser':', (2) Seasonal Shallow Water Submerged Aquatic Vegetation, (3) ()pen
Water Fish and Shellfish ltabitat, (4) Deep Water Seasonal Fish and Shellfish Ilabitat, and (5)
Deep Channel. Water quality criteria consist of narrative statements and numeric values designed
to protect the designated uses. Criteria differ among waters with different designated uses.
The Baltimore l larbor (basin number 02130903) w.as first identified on the 1996 303(d) list
submitted to EPA by the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDF). It was listed as
impaired by nutrients due to signs of eutrophication, expressed as high levels of chlorophyll a
(Cht a) and low concentrations of dissolved oxygen (DO). Eutrophication is the over-enrichment
of aquatic s)stems by excessive inputs ofnutrients (nitrogen and/or phosphorus). The nutrients
act as a fertilizer leading to excessive growth of algae. The algae die and are eventually
consumed by bacteria. During the consumption process the bacteria utilize the available DO,
~hich resuhs in decreased DO concentrations in the water column particularly v, hen stratification
or layering prevents oxygen in the surtace layers from mixing with deeper la~ers. Tberelbre.
MI)E uses measures of DO and Chl a to understand the impact of the nitrogen and phosphorus on
the ecosystem. For these reasons, this document, upon EPA approval, establishes TMDI,s for the
nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus in the Baltimore Ilarbor.
The Baltimore Harbor has also been identified on the 303(d) list as impaired by bacteria (fecal
coliform) (1998), toxics (polyehlorinated bipbenyls (PCBs) (1998), metals (chromium (Cr), zinc
(Zn), and lead (Pb)) (1998). suspended sediments (1996), and impacts to biological communities
(2004). To date, Cr and Zn impairments in Bear Creek and the Inner 1larbor/Northwest Branch
and Pb in the Inner Harbor/Northwest Branch have been addressed with water quality analyses.
]''he remaining impairments will be addressed separately.

SETTING AND WATER QUALITY DESCRIPTION
2.1 General Setting and Source Assessment
2.1.1 Watershed Description

The watershed draining into the Baltimore Harbor estuary is the Patapsco River Watershed. The
Patapsco River Watershed is located in the western shore region of Maryland (Figure 1), and
includes the mainstem Patapsco and the tributaries of Jones Falls, Gwynns Falls, Colgate Creek,
Bear Creek, Curtis Creek, Stony Creek, and Rock Creek. The Patapsco River Mesohaline
(PATMH) segment, or Baltimore llarbor estuary, is located on the west side of the upper
Chesapeake Bay about 160 miles from the Virginia Capes at the entrance to the Bay. The Ilarbor
estuary is the 15-mile tidal region of the lower Patapsco River. It is the end of the Patapsco River
where it joins the Chesapeake Bay. The PATMH segment includes the Baltimore Harbor estuary
and the tidal segments of the Colgate Creek, Bear Creek, Curtis Creek, Stony Creek, Rock Creek
and Bodkin Creek tributaries. Bodkin Creek is identified in the 303(d) list as a separate
waterbody and will be addressed in the future.
Natural water depths in the l-larlyorare generally less than 20 feet except for the main navigation
channel maintained by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which is maintained at a depth of 50
feet. The tidal range in the Harbor is approximately one loot. Other than the Patapsco River, the
only sizable tributaries entering the Harbor directly are Jones Falls and Gwynns Falls.
The Jones Falls, Gwynns Falls and Patapsco River discharge into the Baltimore Harbor. The
South Branch and mainstem of the Patapsco River flows about 85 miles (134 kin) from Parr's
Spring in Carroll County to the Middle Branch. The North Branch, formed at the confluence of
the East Branch and West Branch, flows into Libcr~' Reservoir where it is retained for drinking
water purposes. A small segment of the North Branch exists below the dam and joins the South
Branch near the ]'own of Sykesville. After flowing through Baltimore Harbor, the Patapsco River
discharges into the Chesapeake Bay.
The subwatersheds draining into the Harbor are located within Baltimore Cib' and Baltimore,
Anne Arundel, Carroll, and Howard Counties. The total area of these subwatersheds is 268,671
acres (I,087 square kilometers), excluding the land area above Liberty Reservoir. Water from the
subwatershed draining into Liberty Reservoir typically does not drain to the Baltimore Harbor
because it is used for drinking water.
Table I shows the area in acres that the Patapsco River watershed (not including Liberty
Reservoir watershed) occupies in each of the above counties. Fable 2 shows the area in acres for
each of the four major subwatersheds draining into the Baltimore Harbor estuary.

2.1.2 Land Use

The land use in the Baltimore Harbor watershed is diverse. The land cover consists of urban,
suburban, rural, industrial, forest, and agricultural land uses. One of the largest forested areas in
the watershed is the Patapsco Valley State Park.
The watershed draining into the Baltimore Harbor (not including the watershed draining into the
Liberty Reservoir) has an area of approximately 268,671 acres (1,087.3 square kilometers). The
land uses in the watershed consist of" tbrest and other herbaceous growth (77,077 acres or 29%),
mixed agriculture (41,848 acres or 15%), water (I,806 acres or I%), and urban (147,940 acres or
55%). Land use information was derived from the 1997 Maryland Department of" Planning
(MDP) land cover database, the Farm Service Agency (FSA), the 1997 Agricultural Census, and
information from the 1996 Conservation Technology lnfbrmation Center (CTIC). See Figure 2
for the predominant land uses in the Baltimore tlarbor watersheds. Figure 3 shows the relative
amounts ofdillerent land uses in the watersheds draining into the Baltimore Harbor.

2.1.3 Geology
The watersheds draining into the Baltimore Harbor lie primarily within the Piedmont and, to a
lesser extent, the Coastal Plain provinces of Central Maryland. The surficial geology is
characterized by crystalline rocks of volcanic and sedimentary origin, consisting primarily of
schist and gneiss. These formations are resistant to short-term erosion, and often determine the
limits of stream bank and streambed. Crystalline formations decrease in elevation from northwest
to southeast, eventually extending beneath the younger sediments of the Coastal Plain. The fall
line represents the transition between the Atlantic Coastal Plain Province and the Piedmont
Province. The Atlantic Coastal Plain surficial geology is characterized by thick, unconsolidated
marine sediments deposited over the crystalline rock formations of the Piedmont Province
(Coastal Environmental Services, 1995). "
2.1.4 Nutrients Source Assessment
2.1.4.1 Point Sources: Municipal and Industrial Wastewater
Treatment Plant Loads
The Patapsco Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and Cox Creek WWTP are municipal point
sources that discharge directly into Baltimore Itarbor. International Steel Group (ISG). Grace
Davison, Erachem-Comilog, US Gypsum, and Millenium Specialty are the five industrial point
sources that discharge directly into the Harbor. The combined estimated average annual loads
from municipal W W T P s for 1992- 1997 (the model calibration period) are 3,455,063 Ibs/yr for
total nitrogen (TN) and 216,099 lbs/yr for total phosphorus (TP). The combined estimated
average annual loads from industrial WWTPs for 1992-1997 are 3,001,015 Ibs/yr for TN and
89,376 Ibs/b,rfor TP. Thus, the total average annual loads from all WWTPS are 6,456,078 Ibs/yr
for TN and 305,475 Ibs/yr lbr TP. This inlbrmation was obtained from discharge monitoring
reports stored in MDE's point source database. The municipal average annual point source loads
for 1992-1997 are presented in Table 3. The industrial average annual point source loads for
1992-1997 are shown in Table 4. Table 5 lists the average daily flows for all permitted point
sources discharging into Baltimore Harbor during 1992-1997 in millions of gallons per day
(mgd).

These flow and point source load estimates represent actual discharge into the Baltimore Harbor
from municipal WWTPs and industrial plants from 1992-1997. It is important to note that these
plants were not all discharging at their maximum flo~ capacities and/or nutrient permit limits
during this period. For example, the Patapsco River and Cox Creek municipal WWTPs
discharged an average of 3.5 million Ibs/yr of TN and 0.22 million Ibs/yr of TP during the 19921997 study period. If these plants discharged consistently at their maximum capacity flow, their
loads could increase to 3.9 million Ibs/yr of'IN and 0.46 million Ibs/yr of TP, assuming the TN
concentration was the same as the actual 1992- 1997 concentrations and the TP concentration
equal to the current permit limit ofTP = 2.0 mg/I for both plants. Similarly, industrial facilities
loads could increase significantly if they discharged at maximum capacity for long periods of
time.
2.1.4.2 Nonpoint Source Loads and Urban Stormwater Loads

Nonpoint source loads and urban stormwater loads entering the Baltimore Harbor ~,ere estimated
using the ltydrologic Simulation Program-Fortran (IfSPF). The HSPF model is used to estimate
flows, suspended solids and nutrient loads from the watershed's sub-basins. Nonpoint source and
urban stormwater loads are linked to a three-dimensional, time-variable hydrodynamic model and
a water quality model coupled with a sediment process model designed specifically for Baltimore
Harbor. The water quality model is used to determine the maximum load of'nutrients that can
enter the I tarbor while maintaining the water quality criteria associated with its designated uses.
The v~ater quality modeling framework is shown in Section 4.2.
[ h e Baltimore Harbor HSPF watershed model used the I'bllowing assumptions: (1) variability in
patterns of precipitation were estimated from existing National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) meteorological stations; (2) hydrologic response of" land areas were
estimated for a simplified set of land uses in the basin; and (3) agricultural information, like crop
types and tilling practices, were estimated from MI)P land use data, the 1997 Agricultural Census
Data, and the Farm Service Agency (FSA) data. The HSPF simulates nonpoint source and urban
stormwater loads and integrates all natural and human-induced sources, including direct
atmospheric deposition and loads from septic tanks, which are associated with river base flow
during growing season conditions. Details of the HSPF watershed model developed to estimate
these urban and non-urban loads are found in the 'gatapsco/Back River Watershed HSPF Model
Report" (MDE, 2001).
Figure 4 presents the relative average annual amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus from nonpoint
source, municipal and industrial point source, and urban stormwater delivered Ioadings to the
Baltimore t larbor during the 1995- 1997 period.

"lbe calibration of the model was conducted for the 1992- 1997 period. The TMDI. analysis was
conducted using the 1995-1997 period as a baseline, which includes dr3,, wet and average years.
For these reasons, the delivered loads percentages in the figures represent an average for the
1995- 1997 period.
In the Baltimore l larbor watershed, the estimated 1905-1997 average annual "IN delivered load
from nonpoint sources (NPS) is 1,364.400 Ibs/yr. and the NPS TP delivered load is 37.465 Ibs/yr.
The estimated 1995-1997 average annual TN load for point sources, including regulated urban
stormwater TN load, is 7,053,689 Ibs/yr and the estimated 1995-1997 average annual point source
TP load is 317.423 Ibs/yr.
2.2 Water Quality Characterization
Eutrophication is the over-enrichment of aquatic systems by excessive inputs of nutrients
(nitrogen and/or phosphorus). The nutrients act as a fertilizer leading to excessive growth of
algae. The algae grow rapidly, die and are subsequently consumed by bacteria. The bacterial
consumption of the algae results in the use of available dissolved oxygen in the water column,
which produces hypoxic (low oxygen) or anoxic (no oxygen) conditions. Eutrophication has
probably been more extensively studied in the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries than in an',
other coastal ecosystem. Scientists have uncovered the relationships ofhov~ nutrients stimulate
biological productivity in the Bay. and how eutrophicationresults in oxygen depletion, increased
turbidity, loss of submersed vegetation, and alteration of food webs (Boesch et al.. 2001).
Portions of the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries often shov, signs of eutrophication. The
Baltimore Harbor has sho~',n clear indications ofeutrophication for several decades (Robertson,
1977: Magnien et al.. 1993: Boynton et al.. 1998). For example, extensive and persistent anoxic
or h',poxic conditions were observed regularly in the bottom ,.~,aters of the Baltimore Ilarbor.
The Chesapeake Ba? Water Quality Monitoring Program has recorded measurements in the
Bahimore Harbor indicating anoxic and hypoxic events occur as early as April and extend until
October every )ear. Also. increased algal blooms have been found to occur yearly during the
Baltimore I larbor Nutrient rMD[,

warm season (Wang et al,, 2004). Anoxic conditions occur at the bottom of the navigation
channel as well as in most tributaries, such as the Inner Harbor and the Middle Branch. Anoxic
v, ater exists in the mainstem of the Chesapeake Bay each summer. However, Wang et al (2004)
and I,iu (2002) hypothesize that the origin of low DO in the I larbor is not from the intrusion of
anoxic Bay water, but rather is an internal process of the Harbor.
Wang et al,. (2004) indicate that the water circulation and exchange within the Baltimore Harbor
region are generally regulated by local wind forces, which overwhelm the weak currents driven
by river and tidal fbrces. Pritchard and Carpenter (1960) inferred the existence of a three-layered
circulation in Baltimore Harbor based on salinity and dye distributions. This was confirmed by
Boicourt and Olson (1982) with direct measurements. This unique hydrodynamic feature has to
be taken into consideration because it can affect the dynamics of water quality parameters.
Data Ibr the 1992- 1997 period have been selected for the development of the eutrophication
model and the subsequent nutrient TMDI, analyses. There are 24 water quality stations located in
the Baltimore tlarbor that MDE and the Chesapeake Bay Program (CBP) surveyed during the
model calibration period. The reader is referred to Figure 5 fbr the locations of the water quality
sampling stations.
The CBP has sponsored a long-term water quality sampling station (WT5.1) in the Baltimore
Ilarbor since 1984 to monitor its physical, chemical, and biological parameters. MDE also
monitored the Baltimore Harbor intensively at the other 23 stations during the period March 1994
to May 1995 lbr parameters similar to those monitored by the CBP. A detailed list of all
parameters measured in these surveys can be found in the report "'The Development of a Water
Quality Model for Baltimore Harbor, Back River and the Adjacent Upper Chesapeake Bay"
(Wang et al.. 2004).
The time series data for dissolved oxygen (DO) and chlorophyll a (Chl a) at stations WT5.1 and
M I6 are presented in this report to provide a trend analysis of the two parameters associated with
Maryland water quality standards. Additional time series and longitudinal data profiles from the
MDE and CBP stations lbr various nutrient parameters are available upon request and through the
MDE TMDI, website as supporting documentation. The time series data files are too large to
incorporate as appendices to this report.

Figure 6: Time Series of Chlorophyll a Data at Baltimore Harbor Station WT5.1 / MI6

As Figure 6 shows, surface Chl a concentrations include observations that are above 50 lag/I every
year, with a seasonal pattern of higher values during warmer months and lower values during
colder months. Concentrations rarely exceed 100 I.tg/I, except in the summers of 1994 and 1995
when maximum concentrations were close to 200 I.tg/l. Bottom Chl a is normally below 20 p.g/I,
except during the springs of 1995 and 1996 where concentrations reached 100 p.,g/I and 85 ~g/I,
respectively (probably weather-related, as several snowstorms may have resulted in unusual
patterns of thermal stratification).
A time series for surface and bottom DO concentrations at station WT5.1 is depicted in Figure 7,
showing that the observed surface I)O levels did not fall belong, 5.0 mg/I. The surface I3,O ranged
from 5.2 mg/I to 18.0 mg/I w'ith average DO concentrations around 10 mg/I. There is some
degree of seasonal variation with higher DO values during winter months and lower values during
summer months, due to seasonal changes in temperature. The bottom water DO concentrations
range ti'om 0 mg/I to 11 mg/I and display a distinct seasonal pattern. Anoxic conditions can be
observed at the bottom waters starling as early as April in some years and lasting until the end of
summer eveo' year. During early fall, DO levels start to increase rapidly, reaching the 5.0 mg/I
level by November.

Migratory Spassning and Nursery, 2) Shallow Water Submerged Aquatic Vegetation, 3) Open
Water Fish and Shellfish, 4) Seasonal Deep Water Fish and Shellfish, and 5) Deep Channel. No
areas in the Harbor are designated as Shellfish Ilan, est Use areas.
The designated uses described above and the associated criteria are the result of MI)E's adoption
ofwater quality standards developed by tbe Cbesapeake Bay Program. MDI" adopted the
standards in the fall of 2005 and the Baltimore Harbor TMD[, represents the second application of
these standards to Maryland's estuarine waters.

Ilarbor. The DO level is based on specific numeric criteria for Use I1 waters set forth in the
COMAR 26.08.02.03-3C(2)(8). tlowever, due to data limitations MDE will lbllow EPA
guidance and assess the DO attainment based on 30-day component of the Open Water Use
designated use for the Migratory Fish Nurser)' and Spawning Use, and Seasonal Shallow Water
Submerged Aquatic Vegetation designated uses. The Deep Water Use will also be assessed using
a 30-day methodology, however the requisite concentralion is different from the Open Water Use.

2.3.2 Chlorophyll a Criteria
The Chl a concentration goal used in this analysis are based on guidelines set forth by Thomann
and Mueller (1987) and by the EPA Technical Guidance Manual for Developing Total Maximum
Daily Loads, Book 2, Part I (1997). The Chl a narrative criterion (COMAR 26.08.02.03-3C(10)
state: "Chlorophyll a - Concentrations of chlorophyll a in f~e-floating microscopic aquatic plants
(algae) shall not exceed levels that result in ecologically undesirable consequences that would
render tidal waters unsuitable for designated uses." The Thomann and Mueller guidelines
acknowledge that ""Undesirable' levels of ph~oplankton [Chl a] vary considerably depending on
water body." MDE has determined, per Thomann and Mueller, that it is acceptable to maintain
Chl a concentrations below a maximum of 100 pg/L, and to target, with some flexibility
depending on waterbody characteristics, a 30-day rolling average of approximately 50 lag/L.

FINAL
Consistent with the guidelines set tbrth above. MDE's interpretation of narrative criteria for Chl a
in the Baltimore [larbor is comprised of the following ',~,ater quality goals:
(I) Ensure that instantaneous concentrations remain below 100 lag/l, at all times and
(2) Minimize exceedances of the 50 lag~l,, 30-day rolling average, to a frequency that will
not result in ecologically undesirable conditions.
The water quality impairment being addressed by this TMDL analysis consists of DO
concentrations less than the numeric criteria presented in Section 2.3.1 and Chlorophyll a (Chl a)
concentrations above the MDE interpretation of the narrative criteria presented in Section 2.3.2
(See Figures 6&7). The achievement of the DO and Chl a criteria is required for all the uses
throughout the water column of the Baltimore Harbor system. In the Harbor. data are not
sufficient to assess the 7-day average and instantaneous minimum DO criteria for attainment of
the designated uses; thus, the calibrated model results are used to evaluate conditions.
3.0

TARGETED W A T E R QUALITY GOAL

The objective of the nutrient TMDLs established in this document is to ensure that DO and Chl a
concentrations in the Baltimore Harbor meet the criteria associated with specific designated uses.
Spccificall',, the TMDLs for nitrogen and phosphorus are intended to control excessive algal
growth and increase DO concentrations in areas not currently meeting water quality criteria.

4.1 Overview
The follm~ing sections describe the modeling frameworks for simulating nutrient loads.
hydrology, and water quality, responses. Section 4.2 summarizes the TMDI, analysis ti'amework
and model calibration. Section 4.3 describes the scenarios and results that were generated using
the modeling framework. Sections 4.4-4.5 describe how the nutrient TMDI,s and load
allocations for point sources and nonpoint sources were developed for the Baltimore Harbor.
Section 4.6 explains the rationale for the margin of safety and the last section summarizes the
TMDLs for the growing season and average annual conditions.

4.2 Analysis Framework
4.2.1 Computer Modeling Framework
To develop a TMDL. a linkage must be defined between the selected water quality targets or
goals and the identified pollutant sources. This linkage establishes the cause-and-effect
relationship between the sources of the pollutant of concern and the water quality response of the
impaired water quality segment to that pollutant. For nonpoint sources, the relationship can vary
seasonally due to factors such as precipitation. Once defined, the linkage yields the estimate of
total loading capacity or TMDL (EPA, 1999).
MDE chose a set of time-variable models as the analysis tool to link the sources of nutrient
Ioadings to the IX) criteria and chlorophyll a goal. The computational framework chosen for the

FINAL
Baltimore Harbor nutrients TMDI,s is the three-dimensional, time-variable Baltimore Harbor
Eutrophication Model (BHEM). This ~ater quality simulation package provides a generalized
framework for modeling nutrient fate and transport in surface waters (Cerco and Cole, 1995).
The BHEM package includes a watershed model, a hydrodynamic model, a water quality, model
and a sediment flux sub-model, and represents twenty-two water quality parameters from the
water column and sediment bed. For detailed information, please refer to the report "The
Development of a Water Quality Model lbr Baltimore Harbor, Back River and the Adjacent
Upper Chesapeake Bay" (Wang et al., 2004).
Since many studies have shown the significant influence of the Chesapeake Bay on its tributaries,
the spatial domain of the BHEM extends longitudinally from the mouth of the Susquehanna River
about 90 miles seaward (south) to the mouth of the Patuxent River, which is defined as the upper
Chesapeake Bay. Baltimore Ilarbor is located on the western shoreline of the upper Chesapeake
Bay. This modeling domain is represented by BItEM model segments. A diagram of the model
segmentation is presented in Wang et al (2004).
The water quality model, Corps of Engineers Water Quality Compartment Model (CI--QUALICM), is externally coupled with the three-dimensional, time-variable hydrodynamic model,
Curvilinear Hydrodynamic in Three Dimensions, (CH3D). As its name indicates, CH3D makes
hydrodynamic computations on a curvilinear or boundary-fitted platform grid that allows the
model to accurately represent the deep navigation channel and irregular shoreline. The CFt3D
simulates physical processes such as tides, wind, density effects (salinity and temperature),
freshwater inflows, turbulence, and the effect of the earth's rotation. The model outputs are used
to drive the water quality model (Johnson et al,, 1991).
The sediment flux model developed by DiToro and Fitzpatrick (1993), and coupled with CEQUAL-ICM for Chesapeake Bay water quality modeling efforts, is used in the present model
application. The state variables, resulting fluxes, and complete model documentation can be
found in Wang et al (2004), and also in l)iToro and Fitzpatrick (1993).
The stormwater load and nonpoint source loading estimation was conducted using a HSPF
watershed model, which simulates the fate and transport of pollutants over the entire hydrologic
cycle. Details of this effort are described in Section 2.1.4.2. For detailed information, see
"Patapsco/Back River Watershed IISPF Model Report" (MDE, 2001).
The BHEM package described above ",'.'ascalibrated to reproduce observed v,ater quality
characteristics |br 1992-1997 conditions. The calibration of'the model for these six years
establishes an analytical tool that may be used to assess a range of scenarios with differing flow
and nutrient loading conditions. For a detailed explanation of the calibration of the watershed
model, hydrodynamic model, water quality model and sediment flux model please refer to MDE.

4.2.1.1 Eutrophication Model Calibration
The calibration and verification of the BttEM modeling package ',,,'as reviewed and accepted by
various modeling technical groups, i.e., Chesapeake Bay Program Modeling Subcommittee and
Baltimore Harbor Stakeholder Advisory. Group. The calibration of the eutrophication model is
the process of modifying the model input parameters until the model output matches the set of
observed v, ater column data in an optimal way. Observed v, ater quality, hydrological, and
loading data collected during the period 1992- 1997 were used to calibrate the BHEM. Figures 8
and 9 show the results of the model calibration for chlorophyll a and DO at station W T f l in both
surface and bottom water. Additional time series and longitudinal data profiles from the MDE
and CBP stations for various nutrient parameters may be found in Wang et al (2004) and are also
available upon request and through the MDE TMDI. website as supporting documentation. The
time series data files are too large to incorporate as appendices to this report.

4.2.2 TMDL Analysis Frame work
The nutrient TMDL analysis consists of two broad elements: an assessment of growing season
loading conditions and an assessment of average annual loading conditions. Both the growing
season and the average annual flow TMDL analyses investigate the critical conditions under
which symptoms of eutrophication are typically most acute. During excessively dr)' or wet years
the flux in Ioadings impact water quality significantly. Additionally, water quality is impacted
during late summer when flows are low. the system is poorly flushed, and sunlight and
temperatures are most conducive to excessive algal production. The TMDL analysis allows a
comparison of current loading conditions to future conditions that project the water quality
response to various simulated load reductions of the impairing substances.
4.2.2.1 Dissolved Oxygen Analytical Framework

In April 2003, the CBP published its approach to assessing the attainment of water quali~' criteria
designed to protect the living resources of the Chesapeake Bay and its tidal tributaries, as defined
by their respective designated uses. In 2005, MDE adopted the CBP DO criteria and its
associated attainment methodology, utilizing DO biological reference curves to represent the
spatial and temporal distribution of DO concentrations. MDE is applying this methodology using
Cumulative Frequency Distributions (CFDs) for the Baltimore Harbor generated from model
output, and compared against the CBP reference curves, to assess spatial and temporal DO criteria
exceedanccs. This method quantifies the degree of criteria attainment or exceedence by
incorporating the percent of area or volume of a region that meets or exceeds the DO criterion for

the specific designated uses periods. Using CFDs generated from the model data, the calibrated
and verified assessment results express exceedances above the reference curve (violations of the
alloy, able criteria limit) as percentages of the total time-volume for the area. These percentages
are then used to determine ',~,hcther a load reduction (TMDL) is required to meet the designated
use.

The CFDs are derived from empirical, biolog):based field data wherever possible. The DO
criteria are intended have several duration curves that reflect in silu conditions: 30-day mean. 7day mean, l-day mean and the instantaneous minimum. However, given the limitations in
directly monitoring at the temporal scales required for assessing attainment of the instantaneous
minimum, I-day mean and 7-da) mean criteria. EPA indicates that the states can waive
attainment assessments for these criteria until monitoring at the required temporal scales is
implemented or apply statistical methods to estimate probable attainment (EPA, April 2003). For
these reasons, MDE will assess the DO attainment for only the 30-day component of the Open
Water Use and Deep Water Use l)O criteria in the Baltimore Harbor. For the Migratory Fish
Nurser>. and Spawning Use. EPA indicates that until more data are collected to better assess the
attainment of the 7-day mean and instantaneous minimum criteria of this designated use, the Open
Water DO reference curve should be applied. For the Migratory Fish Nursery and Spawning t/se
attainment analysis. MD£ utilized the Open Water DO reference curve and model output
associated ~ith the Migratory Fish Nursery and Spawning Use period. Figure 10 below is an
example of the CBP DO reference cu~'e adopted by MDE. (For more information on monitoring,
assessment of DO criteria attainment, and CBP DO reference curves, please refer to the CBP
document entitled "Ambient Water Quality Criteria for the Dissolved Oxygen, Water Clarity and
Chlorophyll a for the Chesapeake Bay and its Tidal Tributaries" (EPA, 2003).

FINAL
September 30 th and requires an instantaneous minimum concentration of 1.0 mg/I. Two factors
have prevented the development and application of a "reference curve" approach as used in the
other segments of the water column. First, the Deep Channel portion of the Chesapeake Bay has
not been monitored as part of the long-term benthic monitoring program and therefore lacks
appropriate data for development of a reference curve. Second, the Deep Channel segment of the
Chesapeake Bay is considered severely degraded and appropriate reference sites with similar
characteristics and non-degraded conditions are not available.

Due to the unavailability of a reference curve to assess attainment, MDE has conducted an
analysis to determine the percentage of time when the modeled DO concentration in the Deep
Channel was below the 1.0 mg/l instantaneous minimum concentration required by the criteria.
The assessment consisted of an evaluation of the modeled scenario DO concentrations versus the
instantaneous minimum concentration.
4.2.2.2 Chlorophyll a Analytical Framework
Model results were compared to the quantitative implementation of the narrative Chl a criteria
stated in Section 3.0 as: (I) ensuring that instantaneous concentrations remain below 100 p.g/I at
all times and (2) minimizing exceedances of the 50 lag/I, 30-day rolling average, to a frequency
that will not result in ecologically undesirable conditions.
4.3 Scenario Descriptions and Results
The scenarios are grouped according to baseline conditions, future conditions, and a maxtmum
anthropogenic reduction from Bahimore Harbor scenario. The baseline condition is intended to
provide a point of reference by which to compare future scenarios that simulate conditions of a
TMDL. The future conditions scenario is associated with TMDI,s, while the maximum
anthropogenic reduction from Baltimore Harbor scenario is used as a bounding exercise to
determine if" it is possible to achieve water quality standards in the Deep Channel portion of the
Ilarbor. The baseline and future conditions scenarios were used to estimate growing season and
average annual TMDI,s. The period 1995-1997 corresponds to the "'baseline" period in analyses
described below. The following analyses allow a comparison between current water quality
conditions and future conditions that project various simulated load reductions of impairing
substances.
4.3.1 Baseline Conditions Scenario
The baseline conditions scenario represents the observed conditions of the Harbor and its
tributaries from 1995-1997. Simulating the system for three years accounts for various loading
and hydrologic conditions, which represent possible critical conditions and seasonal variations of
the system. For example, the 1995-1997 period includes an average year (1995), a wet year
(1996) and a dry year (1997). l'he modeling approach also specifically examines conditions
during summer months when the river system is poorly flushed, and sunlight and warm water
temperatures are more conducive to creating the water quality problems associated with excessive
nutrient enrichment.

The nonpoint nutrient loads, including urban storrnwater loads, were estimated from the IISPF
n~del of the F'atapsco and Back River watersheds. The IISPF model utilized land use
information and hydrology associated with the 1995-1997 period to generate loading estimates for
this scenario. The HSPF model simulates stormwater and nonpoint Ioadings by integrating all
natural and human-induced sources, including direct atmospheric deposition and loads from
septic tanks. For point source loads, this scenario uses the municipal WWTP and industrial
discharge monitoring data from 1995-1997. Additionally, time series and longitudinal data
profiles from the MDE and CBP stations for various nutrient parameters are available upon

4.3.2.1 Dissolved Oxygen Assessment of the Baseline Conditions
Scenario

For the DO assessment of the baseline conditions scenario in the Baltimore ttarbor, the CBP
reference curve approach for the Migratory Fish and Spawning, Open Water and I)ecp Water
Designated Uses was used. Due to limited data in the Baltimore Harbor, the calibrated model
output generated during the baseline conditions scenario was used for the attainment analysis•
The attainment assessment procedure is as lbllows: First, using the calibrated model DO output
for the baseline conditions scenario period (1995-1997), DO attainment curves are developed for
the Migratory Fish and Spawning, Open Water and Deep Water Designated Uses. Second, the
reference curves from the CBP are obtained. Third, MDE generated attainment curves tbr each of
the designated use areas are compared to the corresponding CBP reference curves. The results of
the comparison allow MI)E to quantify the degree of criteria attainment or exceedance based on
the amount of area or volume of a specific designated use region.
A summary oftbe attainment assessment is presented in Table 7. The baseline scenario
assessment of the DO criteria attainment for the Migrator), Fish Spawning and Nurser)'
Designated Use, which applies from February I st tO May 3 ]st indicates that there is a period of
nonattainment in time and volume that represents a 3% exceedance of the criteria (See Appendix
A. Figure A4). The assessment of DO criteria attainment for the Open Water Designated Use,
which applies from June 1~ to September 30 tn indicates that there is a period of nonattainment in
time and volume that represents a 3% exceedance of the criteria (See Appendix A, Figure A5).

from October 1't to January 3U, indicates that there is a period of nonattainment in time and
volume that represents a 2% exceedance of the criteria (See Appendix A, Figure A6). The
assessment of the DO criteria attainment for the Deep Water Designated Use, which applies fi'om
June I 'a to September 30 th, indicates that there is a period of nonatlainment in time and volume
that represents a 23% exceedance of the criteria (See Appendix A, Figure A7).
MDE conducted an analysis of the baseline scenario to determine the percentage of time when the
modeled DO concentration in the Deep Channel was below the 1.0 mg/I instantaneous minimum
concentration required by the criteria. The assessment consisted ofan evaluation ofthe modeled
baseline scenario IX) concentrations versus the instantaneous minimum concentration. The result
of this assessment indicates that the Deep Channel exceeded the criteria 87% of the time and
volume.
The Deep Channel segment of the Baltimore I larbor is considered degraded due to two related
factors. The first is the dredging that occurs in the channel, allowing for the passage of ships in
and out of the commercial port areas within the Harbor. The dredging has resulted in
modifications of the Harbor hydrodynamic circulation patterns that effectively separate the Deep
Channel portion of the water column from the remaining water column during the late spring
through fall seasons. This occurs due to temperature and salinity barriers that do not allow
mixing of surface waters with deep channel waters. Second, maintenance dredging and propeller
wash from ship movements result in the periodic disturbance and/or removal of any biological
communities that may be established during the interval between dredging events.

4.3.2.2 Chlorophyll u Assessment for the Baseline Conditions Scenario
The Chl a levels in the baseline conditions scenario output were analyzed using a 30-day rolling
average as referenced in Section 2.3. The analysis shows that in both surface and botlom water,
Chl a concentrations exceeded 50 p.g/I during early spring and the summer months of 1995 (see
Figure 12) and occasionally were observed to exceed 100 lag/I. Chl a rarely exceeded 50 p.g/l
during 1996 and 1997.
4.3.3 Maximum Anthropogenic Reduction from Baltimore Harbor Scenario
Based on the exceedances of the water quality criteria associated with the baseline scenario,
particularly in the Deep Channel Designated Use, MDE conducted a scenario run to determine
whether the act of removing anthropogenic nutrient sources, both point and nonpoint, would
result in the attainment of water quality standards within the Deep Channel Designated Use
region of the Baltimore t tarbor. This scenario provides an estimate of the water quality response
if the maximum amount of anthropogenic nutrient loading reductions were made in the Baltimore
Harbor watershed. To conduct this analysis, the water quality model was run with nutrient loads
from point and nonpoint sources reduced to zero. The sediment model was allowed to continue
running from the initial condition set by the calibration, and the upper Bay loading conditions
were based on the calibration period. With all sources of nutrients removed the model was
allowed to run for six years to determine the impact on water quality.
4.3.4 Maximum Anthropogenic Reduction Scenario Results
Modeled results lbr the maximum anthropogenic reduction scenario of DO levels in the surface
and bottom waters at station WT5.1 are summarized in Figure 13. Under this scenario, the
attainment assessment results indicate that DO concentration will be < 1.0 mg/I in the Deep
Channel for approximately 57.8% of the time and volume that Deep Channel criteria are in effect.
"Fheretbre, the Deep Channel criteria are not achieved in this scenario.
The results of this model scenario predict that with the removal of anthropogenic point and
nonpoint sources of nutrients, the Baltimore I larbor will not fully meet the Deep Channel
Designated Use ~'~aterquality standard although all other standards will be met. The constant
manipulation and sequential deepening of the channel over time has created a system in which the
water in the Ilarbor channel is effectively sealed off from mixing action during the summer
months due to the hydrodynamic circulation pattern. As a result, oxygen is not transferred from
the upper portions of the water column into the Baltimore Harbor channel. Consequently, the
oxygen that is present in the channel during the winter and spring seasons is being consumed but
not replaced during the summer months. The maximum anthropogenic reduction from Baltimore
I tarbor scenario indicates that the hydrodynamics of the Harbor system create conditions whereby
the Harbor channel becomes anoxic for periods during the summer.

Figure 13: Maximum Anthropogenic Reduction Scenario model results for DO levels in
surface and bottom waters in Baltimore Harbor at Station WT5.1

4.3.5 Future Conditions (TMDL) Scenario
This scenario provides an estimate of future conditions in the Baltimore Harbor system based on a
simulation with I) WWTP discharges ,set at design flow and nitrogen and phosphorus
concentrations based on Maryland's Enhanced Nutrient Reduction (ENR) strategy, 2) industrial
discharges based on permitted flow and concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus reduced based
on estimates of loading reductions due to technological improvements, and 3) urban stormwatcr
and agricultural loads for all subwatersheds draining into the Baltimore Harbor reduced by 15%.
Based on the results of the Maximum Anthropogenic Reduction Scenario, which indicated the
Deep Channel Designated Use would not achieve water qualit,, standards at all times with the
removal of all anthropogenic nutrient sources, MDF developed this scenario to represent the
current limit of technology for municipal WWTPs, and an aggressive nutrient reduction goal for
industrial point sources and nonpoint sources. This scenario was used to estimate both growing
season and average annual flow "FMDLs.
The point source loads from the Patapsco and Cox Creek WWTPs were based on National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPI)ES) permit flows and ENR-based concentrations of
TN equal to 4 m~l annual average (3 mg/I in May-October and 5 mg/I in November-April) and
TP of 0.3 mg/I. These levels are consistent with Maryland's Tributary Strategy and I:NR Policy.

FINAL
Industrial point source flows and concentrations vary tbr the different t'acilities, and their etlluent
Ioadings were based on recent performance levels, after having already achieved significant
loading reductions since the initial baselines established in 1985. Their recent performance levels
were then adjusted based on additional potential loading reductions.
Urban stormwater and agricultural "IN and TP loads for this scenario were reduced by 15% from
their baseline loads in order to reach the water quality, goals for Chesapeake Bay waters. The
baseline urban stormwater and agricultural loads are estimated by the ttSPF watershed model as
described in "Patapsco/Back River Watershed HSPF Model Report" (MDE, 2001). The loading
reductions are based on the implementation of urban and agricultural Best Management Practices
(BMPs) that are used to reduce pollution from these land uses. The load reduction was quantified
based on nutrient removal efficiency ratings that have been developed for various BMPs. This
approach is based on the assumptions made by the CBP in its Chesapeake Bay watershed
modeling effort and is consistent with the method used to develop Maryland's Tributary
Strategies.
The I larbor watershed land uses are comprised of approximately 55% urban, 15% agricultural,
and 29% tbrest. An assessment of the urban and agricultural land use components indicate that
the baseline load lbr urban land use is approximately 43% of the average annual TN load, 75% of
the average annual TP load, 49% of the growing season TN load, and 78% of the growing season
TP load from watershed land uses. Similarly, the baseline load for agricultural landuse is
approximately 33% of the average annual "IN load, 12% of the average annual TP load, 24% of
the growing season TN load. and I 1% of the growing season TP load from watershed land uses.
Other non-urban stormwater and non-agricultural nutrient loads, including forest loads, represent
the remaining contribution to the total load.

4.3.6 Future Conditions (TMDL) Scenario Results
DO and Chl a time series results for water quality station WT5.1 tbr surface and botlom waters
for the "I'MI)I. scenario are summarized in Figures 14 and 15. As displayed in Figure 14, under
the TMDL scenario, the minimum DO concentrations at water qualib' station WT5.1 are above
6.5 mg/I in the surface water. However, the bottom water DO decreases to below I mg/I and
approaches 0 mg/I during the summer months. It can be observed that the anoxic condition starts
later and ends earlier than in the baseline scenario. As displayed in Figure 15, under the TMDL

4.3.6.1 Dissolved Oxygen Criteria Attainment Assessment of the Future
Conditions (TMDL) Scenario
The I)O attainment assessment of the TMDL scenario in the Baltimore Harbor was performed as
explained in the baseline conditions scenario assessment (Section 4.3.2.1 ). The attainment and
reference curve assessments generated for the Migratory Fish Spawning and NurseD', Open
Water, and Deep Water Designated Uses are provided in Appendix B. The following is a
summary of the attainment assessment analysis.
The TMDL scenario assessment of the DO criteria attainment for the Migratory Fish Spawning
and Nursery Designated Use, which applies from February l~t to May 31 ~ indicates that the
attainment curve is always below the reference curve and that the designated use is met 100% of
the time (See Appendix B, Figure BI ). The assessment of the DO criteria attainment for the Open
Water Designated Use, which applies from June 1~ to September 30 Lh and from October I St to
JanuaD 31 st. indicates that there is a period of nonattainment; however, this period is not
significant enough in time or volume affected to cause an exceedance of the criteria, therefore the
designated use is being met (See Appendix B, Figures B2 and B3). The assessment of the DO
criteria attainment for the Deep Water Designated Use, which applies from June I st tO September
30 th, indicates that there is a period of nonattainment in time and volume that represents a 7%
exceedance of the criteria (See Appendix B, Figure B4). The Deep Water DO criteria allows a
restoration variance of up to 7% applied spatially and/or temporally from June I to September 30
(COMAR 26.08.02.03-3 C(8)(e)(vi)); theretbre, the assessment of the DO criteria indicates that
the designated use is attained. During the remaining months of the year, these areas are
designated as Open Water and the criteria are met.
MDE conducted an analysis of the TMDL scenario to determine the percentage of time when the
modeled DO concentration in the Deep Channel was below the 1.0 mg/I instantaneous minimum
concentration required by the criteria. The assessment consisted of an evaluation of the modeled
TMDL scenario DO concentrations versus the instantaneous minimum concentration. "l'he result
of this assessment indicates that the Deep Channel exceeded the criteria 78.5% of the time and
volume.
During the October I ~ato May 31 ~a peric~l the Deep Water and Deep Channel Designated Use
areas are considered Open Water Designated Use. Results of the attainment assessment utilizing
the reference curve approach indicate that the criteria are achieved. Table 8 presents a summary,
of the Baltimore Harbor DO attainment assessment fbr the TMDI~ Scenario.

This section describes one viable allocation of loads between point sources, nonpoint sources, and
the margin of safety for the nitrogen and phosphorus TMDLs. A more detailed overview of

Technical Memorandums. r b e allocations presented are quantified for growing season (May l ~t

Stormwater Loads
In November 2002, EPA advised States that Municipal Separate Storm Se~ser System
(MS4) storm~vater discharges must be addressed by the wasteload allocation (WI.A) (See
40 C.F.R. § 130.2(h)). Therefore, MS4 communities regulated by NPDES permits will
have their loads reflected in the WLA. The urban stormwater loads of nitrogen and
phosphorus simulated in the Baltimore Harbor TMDL scenario are reduced 15% from the
baseline urban stormwater loads.
The TMDL. including loads from urban stormwater discharges, is nov,' expressed as:

TMDL = WLA [NPDES point sources * +

Phase I and Phase 11 MS4's stormwater permits will be considered point sources sul:tject to
WLA assignment in the TMDI.. EPA recognizes that limitations in the available data and
information usually preclude stormwater allocations to specific outfalls. Therefore, EPA
guidance allows the urban stormwater WI.A to be expressed as a gross allotment, rather
than individual allocations for separate pipes, ditches, construction sites, etc.
Estimating a load contribution to a particular waterbody from the stormwater is imprecise,
given the variability in sources, runoff volumes, and pollutant loads over time. Therefore,
the urban stormwater WLA is based on the best Ioadings estimate currently available. For
the Baltimore tlarbor the current data allows the urban stormwater allocation to be defined
separately for Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Anne Arundel County, Carroll CounR,.
and Howard County. llowever, it should be noted that these WLAs aggregate municipal
and industrial stormwater, including the loads from highways and construction activity.

Municipal and Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plants Loads

During the 1995-1997 baseline conditions period, there were seven permitted point
sources discharging nutrients into the Baltimore Harbor. For the TMDI.s scenario, all
seven point sources were given an allocation. In addition to the seven permitted point
sources considered in the baseline scenario, the Cox Creek Dredged Material Containment
Facility (DMCF) is included in the TMDI. scenario and given an allocation. The Cox
Creek DMCF was not discharging during the 1992-1997 period, therefore was not
considered in the calibration of the model and the baseline scenario.
The Patapsco and Cox Creek WWTPs maximum allowable current permit flows are used
for this scenario. Concentrations were adjusted to reflect Maryland's ENR Strategy of a
maximum total nitrogen concentrations of 3 mg/l from May I st tO October 31 s~. Total

4.6 Margin of Safety (MOS) and Future Allocation (FA)
A MOS is required as part o f a TMDL in recognition of many uncertainties in the understanding
and simulation of water quality in natural systems. For example, knowledge is incomplete
regarding the magnitude of pollutant loads from various sources due to normal variations in
precipitation and process changes, and the specific impacts of those pollutants on the chemical
and biological quality of complex, natural waterbodies. The MOS is intended to account for such
uncertainties in a manner that is conservative from the standpoint ofenvironmental protection.
Based on EPA guidance, the MOS can be achieved through two approaches (EPA. April 1991).
One approach is to explicitly reserve a portion of the loading capacity as a separate term in the
TMDL (i.e., TMDI. = LA + WLA + MOS). The second approach is to incorporate the MOS as
conservative assumptions used in the TMDL analysis (implicit MOS). Maryland has adopted a
MOS for these TMDI,s using the first approach. For both the growing season and the average
annual flow TMDLs, the load allocated to the MOS is approximately 5% of the reduced
agricultural loads for nitrogen and phosphorus. The MOS is not considered a part of the reduced
agricultural loads; it is a separate term in the TMDL equation. That is, the sum of the MOS and
the reduced agricultural loads is equalto the load reduction that was used in the model run to

determine the "IMDL. These explicit nitrogen and phosphorus margins of safety are presented in
Tables 9 and 10. See Appendix C for MOS calculations.
Future Allocation represents an allowance for future growth, which accounts for reasonably
foreseeable increases in pollutant loads (40 CFR 130.33(b)(9)). Future growth can be included in
the TMDL by reserving a separate allocation for this purpose or by allocating acceptable
wasteloads and loads in a way that incorporates potential growth. In the Baltimore Harbor
nutrients TMDL analysis, the first approach is used for the nitrogen and phosphorus TMDLs to
address the contingency that a seasonal nitrogen limit based on 3 mg/I of nitrogen and a limit of
0.3 mg/I of phosphorus may not be practical for ENR technology at some t~.cilities.

average daily loads of approximately 14,586 Ibs/day of nitrogen and 889 Ibs/day of phosphorus.
Since nutrients do not result in acute impacts and the impacts of a given amount of nutrients vary
seasonally, these average daily loads are provided for informational purposes, since daily loads
will not be a factor controlling the ability to meet the water quality standards.

ASSURANCE OF IMPLEMENTATION

Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act and current EPA regulations require reasonable assurance
that the TMDL load and wasteload allocations can and will be implemented in order to achieve
water quality standards. In the Baltimore Harbor, both the TMDL and maximum anthropogenic
reduction analyses indicate that reductions of the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus from all
sources, including the elimination of all point and nonpoint sources, do not result in the water
quality standards being met in all waters of the Harbor at all times. Under the TMDL scenario the
Deep Channel Designated Use region violates the water quality standard 78.5% of time and
volume. Under the maximum anthropogenic reduction scenario, the Deep Channel Designated
Use region violates the water quality standard 57.8% of time and volume. Under both of these
scenarios, however, the water quality standards are achieved tot all other designated uses that are
applicable in the Harbor.
The implementation of point source nutrient controls that will be an integral component to meet
water quality standards in the Harbor will be executed through the State's Enhanced Nutrient
Reduction (ENR) strategy and NPDES permits. The ENR program provides grant funds to local
governments to retrofit or upgrade WWTPs from BNR to ENR at their current ly approved design
capacity. Enhanced nutrient removal technologies allow sewage treatment plants to provide a
highly advanced level of nutrient removal. The ENR strategy builds on the success of the
biological nutrient removal (BNR) program already in place. Currently, the Patapsco WWTP is
designing its new ENR facility, Cox Creek WWTP is planning its new ENR facility, and the Back
River WWTP (supplier of processing water to ISG) is planning its new ENR facility. The
completion of the planning, design, and construction of these facilities will lead to significant
reductions in nutrients discharged into Baltimore Harbor. Upon completion of the ENR upgrades,
subsequent NPDES permits lbr the municipal WWfPs will include nutrient loading limits that
will be based upon achieving ENR levels of treatment. The significant industrial NPDES (>0.5
mgd) point sources will also have nutrient limits incorporated into subsequent permits that are
reissued following the completion of the TMDL. The reissued NPDES permits will attempt to
maintain consistency with the assumptions made in the TMDLs (e g., flow, nutrients effluent
concentrations, DO, etc.). Deadlines for completion of ENR upgrades will be incorporated into
NPDES permits based on the State's ENR upgrades schedule and, if the permitting timeframe is
shorter than the ENR schedule, permits will reflect what can reasonably be accomplished x~ith
consideration to the complexity of the engineering and the availability of resources.
The implementation of nonpoint source nutrient controls that will be an integral component to
achieve water quality standards in the I larbor will be executed through two approaches,

stormv, ater NPDES permits and cooperative agricultural reductions. In November 1990, EPA
required jurisdictions with a population greater than 100,000 to apply for NPDES Permits for
storm~ater discharges. The five jurisdictions where the Baltimore I larbor v, atershed is located,
Baltimore City, Baltimore Count). Anne Arundel County, Carroll County and Iloward County,
are required to participate in the stormwater NPDES program, and must comply with the NPDES
Permit regulations for stormwater discharges. Subsequently, stormwater management programs
have been implemented by the Counties and the City to control MS4 discharges to the maximum
extent practicable. For example. Baltimore County stormwater management program
encompasses numerous elements including: erosion and sediment control, post-construction
runoff management, controlling pollutants associated with road maintenance activities, public
education and outreach, and illicit discharge detection and elimination. Additionally. in targeted
watersheds, Baltimore County is required to implement watershed restoration for 10% of the
County's total impervious surface cover. Baltimore City is required to implement those watershed
restoration activities described above for addressing 20% of the City's impervious surfaces. In
order to meet this goal, annually, the City will have at least t~o restoration projects in study, tv, o
in design, and two under construction. A brief description ofeach project, phase, and cost can be
found in the City's NPDES stormwater annual report. Details of the Count)' and City programs
elements are available through MDE's Water Management Administration - NPDES Storm~ater
Program.
Additional significant planned implementation measures in the Baltimore Harbor watershed
involve the upgrade or separation of combined sewer systems in the City, and the upgrade of
sanitar) sewer systems in Baltimore Count). In 2002, Baltimore City, MDE. and U.S.
Fnvironmental Protection Agency (EPA) entered into a civil consent decree to address SSOs and
combined sc~ser overflows (CSOs) I within its jurisdictional boundaries. Se..._~eU.S., et al., v. Mayor
and City' Council of Baltimore, JFM-02-12524, Consent Decree (entered Sept. 30, 2002).
Similarly, in 2005, Baltimore Count), MDE and EPA entered into a civil consent decree to
address SSOs in the County. Se__~eU.S., et al. v. Baltimore Count~: AMD-05-2028, Consent

repair, replace, or rehabilitate the system as indicated by the results of those evaluations, with all
work to be completed by Januar)' 2016 for Baltimore City and by March 2020 for Baltimore
County.
Mar) land's Water Quality Improvement Act requires that comprehensive and enforceable nutrient
management plans be developed, approved and implemented for all agricultural lands throughout
Mar)'land. This act specifically requires that nutrient management plans for nitrogen be
developed and implemented by 2002, and plans for phosphorus be completed by 2005. It is
reasonable to expect that nonpoint loads can be reduced during growing season conditions. The
nutrient load sources during growing season include dissolved forms of the impairing substances
from groundwater, the effects of agricultural ditching and animals in the stream, and deposition of

nutrients and organic matter to the strcambed fi'om higher flow events. When these sources are
controlled in combination, it is reasonable to achieve agricultural nonpoint reductions of the
magnitude identified by this TMDL allocation.
Additionally, Howard County is developing a Watershed Restoration Action Strategy for its
portion of the Lower North Branch of the Patapsco River (approximately 38 of 118 square miles).
The county will utilize this strategy to identify and prioritize watershed restoration efforts, which
will include the reduction of nutrient loads from the watershed.
The legislative and policy-derived programs described above will result in significant nutrient
reductions and the achievement of water quality standards for all designated uses in the Baltimore
Harbor except the Deep Channel. Based on information generated in the TMDI. analysis, MDE is
unable to ensure that the Deep Channel Designated Use water quality criterion can be met at all
times that it is applicable. The regions to which the Deep Channel designated use applies
represent approximately 10% of the area of the Harbor. The region subject to potential nonattainment of criteria represents < 5% of'the area of the Harbor. The volume of water that does
not meet the dissolved oxygen criteria represents approximately 3% of the total volume of the
Harbor.
MDE is unable to assure attainment of the Deep Channel Designated Use due to the effects of 170
years of dredging that has incrementally deepened and expanded the size of the Harbors"
navigation channels and their associated turning basins and anchorages. As a result, the Ilarbor
has been h',drologically modified. In a portion of the main navigation channel, from the mouth of
the Harbor to Fort Mcltenry, it has been observed that water from the upper portion of the water
column does not mix with the lower portion of the water column. This observed stratification of
the water column, and the lack of mixing associated with it, occurs every spring/summer/fall. As
a result, there are limited regions within the navigation channel (Deep Channel Designated Use)
that do not meet the dissolved oxygen criteria during the observed spring/summer/fall
stratification period.

APPENDIX A
Baseline Scenario Dissolved Oxygen Criteria Attainment Assessment

How to Read the CFD Reference/Attainment Curve Graphs: Following the tv, o adopted
CBP Reference Curves below, the figures in this appendix for assessment of baseline
scenario DO criteria attainment are graphs expressing time (vertical axis) and volume
(horizontal axis) from 0-100% (the entire area of the graph). Where the attainment curve
is below the reference curve there is depicted an area of"allowable" exceedance (Le.. the
criterion is attained). Where the attainment curve is above the reference curve, there is
depicted a certain percentage of"non-allowable" criteria exceedance (nonattainment).
This percentage is calculated both for time (vertically) and volume (horizontally) as that
area between the two curves taken as a fraction of the total time-volume expressed by the
entire area of the graph (100% of time and volume). For example, in Figure A4 below.
"Baseline Scenario I)O Criteria Attainment Assessment for the Migratory Fish Spawning
and Nursery Designated Use", the area between the solid line of the reference curve and
the dotted line of the attainment curve, where it is rises above the reference cura,e, is
equal to 3% of the entire time and space depicted, and is therefore considered to represent
a criteria exceedance of 3%.
For the dissolved oxygen (DO) criteria assessment of the baseline conditions scenario in
the Baltimore Ilarbor, the reference curves established by the Chesapeake Bay Program
(CBP) were used for ()pen Water and Deep Water Designated Use Habitats. The
Migratory Fish and Spawning Nursery Designated Use analysis ,,,,as conducted using the
Open Water reference curve. The Deep Channel Designated Use does not have an
established reference curve. The attainment assessment for this designated use during the
baseline conditions scenario is presented at the end of this appendix.

The Baltimore Harbor attainment curve (dotted line) is compared to the ('BP reference
curve (solid line). A visual analysis of the reference curve plot indicates that the
attainment cun, e rises slightly above the reference curve. The numerical values obtained
from the output of the attainment program shows a 0.00 or 0% non-attainment.
Therefore, it is estimated that the DO exceedance in time and volume time represented by
this area should be between 0.000 and 0.005 (between 0% and 0.5%) in time and volume,
otherwise if higher than 0.005, the numerical value of the program output v, ould
approximate to the next decimal shov, ing a 0.01 or I% exccedance. Based on the reviev,
of the reference curve program model output• MDE concludes that this specific

The Baltimore 1larbor attainment curve (dotted line) is compared to the CBP reference
curve (solid line). The DO criteria attainment assessment for the Deep Water Designated
Use indicates that there is an area of nonatlainment of 7%. The Deep Water Designated
Use DO criteria allows a variance of up to 7% applied spatially and/or temporally from
June I to September 30 (COMAR 26.08.02.03-3 C (8) (e) (vi)), therefore, the assessment
oftbe DO criteria indicates that the Deep Water designated use is attained.
There is no DO reference curve for the Deep Channel Designated Use, which applies in
the area below the lower boundary of the pycnocline to the sediment/water interface from
June I st to September 30 th. Therefore, MDE developed an attainment analysis
methodology. The methodology consisted of evaluating the water quality model DO data
for the Deep Channel habitat against the 1.0 mg/I instantaneous minimum DO
concentration required. The Deep Channel Designated Use attainment analysis result
indicates that nonattainment of the water quality criteria occurs 78.5% of the time and

Technical Memorandum
Significant Nutrient Point Sources in the Baltimore Harbor (Patapsco
River Mesohaline) Watershed
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requires that Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL)
allocations account for all significant sources oftbe impairing pollutant or pollutants. The
TMDL analysis for Baltimore !larbor addresses the total nitrogen ('12q) and total phosphorus
(TP) loads for the growing season conditions (May-October) and for average annual conditions.
This technical memorandum identifies, in detail, the significant surface water discharges of TN
and TP used as modeling input when computing the TMDLs. These are conceptual values that
are within the TMDL thresholds. Whereas, actual effluent limits and related permit conditions
will be established at the time of permit issuance or renewal through the permit process. The
Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) expressly reserves the right to allocate the
loads among different sources using the above mentioned permit process in any manner that is
reasonably calculated to achieve water quality standards.
Potential waste load allocations have been identified for National Pollutant Elimination System
(NPDES)-regulated municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants and municipal separate
stormwater discharges in the Baltimore Ilarbor Watershed. There are two municipal wastewater
treatment plants (WWTP) contributing nutrient loads to the Baltimore Harbor: the Patapsco
WWTP and the Cox Creek WWTP. In addition to these two municipal WWTPs, there are five
industrial point sources contributing to the total nutrients load into the Harbor: International
Steel Group (1SG), WR Grace, Eracbem-Comilog, US Gypsum, and Millenium Specialty.
Waste load allocations have been identified tbr these point sources based on their permitted or
actual discharge flows. Potential annual waste load allocations are also identified for five
jurisdictions with municipal stormwater discharges in the Baltimore I larbor Watershed to
address nutrient loads from urban sources during storm events. Baltimore City, Baltimore
County, Anne Arundel County, Carroll County and Howard Count)' are all covered under
NPDES Phase 1 stormwater permits. Potential annual waste load allocations have been identified
lbr these stormwater discharges based on the 1995-1997 watershed model. The stormwater
nutrient loads account for contributions from urban land. The land use in|brmation was based on
1997 Maryland Department of Planning data.
The nutrient reductions for point sources, reflected in the TMDL analysis, are designed to protect
water quality in the Baltimore Ilarbor and the Chesapeake Bay. It is likely, however, that future
Chesapeake Bay Agreement nutrient goals may entail more ambitious point source nutrient
reductions to protect the water quality of the Bay.
Tables la and Ib and 2a and 2b below identify provide the potential allocations of the nutrients
nitrogen and phosphorus attributed to the point sources in the Baltimore Harbor: municipal and
industrial WWI'Ps, and NPDES urban stormwater discharges. These allocations were used in the
Baltimore Harbor Eutrophication Model (BtlEM) simulation for the growing season and average
annual conditions.

Technical Memorandum
Significant Nutrient Nonpoint Sources in the Baltimore Harbor
(Patapsco River Mesohaline) Watershed
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requires that Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDI,)
allocations account lbr all significant sources of each impairing pollutant. This technical
memorandum identifies, in detail, the significant nonpoint sources (NPS) of total nitrogen (TN) and
total phosphorus (TP) in the Baltimore Ilarbor watershed and their distribution between different
land uses. Details are provided for allocating NPS loads for nutrients to different land use
categories. These are conceptual values that are within the TMDI, thresholds. The Maryland
Department of the Environment (MDE) expressly reserves the right to allocate the TMDLs among
different sources in any manner that is reasonably calculated to achieve water quality standards.
TMDLs are being established in the Baltimore Harbor watershed for both growing season and
average annual conditions. The NPS loads that were used in the model account lbr all sources
including both natural and human- induced components. The growing season NPS loads and the
average annual NPS loads were both estimated using the Hydrological Simulation Program Fortran
(HSPF) model. As explained in the main document, the simulation of the Baltimore Harbor
Watershed used the following assumptions: (1) variability in patterns of precipitation were
estimated from existing National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
meteorological stations; (2) hydrologic responses of land areas were estimated for a simplified set
of land uses in the basin; and (3) agricultural information was estimated from the Maryland
Department of Planning (MDP) land use data, the 1997 Agricultural Census Data, and the Farm
Service Agency (FSA). The nutrient loads account for contributions from atmospheric deposition
to land, septic tanks, cropland, pasture, l~edlots, and forest. Urban land contributions are included
in the point sources technical memorandum. The land use information was based on 1997 MDP
data. These percentages were then applied to the TMDL loads estimated from MDE observed data.
The nutrient reductions for nonpoint sources, reflected in the TMDL analysis, are designed to
protect water qualib' in the Baltimore Harbor and the Chesapeake Bay. It is likely, however, that
future Chesapeake Bay Agreement goals may entail more ambitious nonpoint source nutrient
reductions to protect the water qualit3,' of the Bay.
Tables la and Ib provide one possible scenario for the distribution of the growing season nitrogen
and phosphorus NPS loads between different land use categories. Tables 2a and 2b provide one
possible scenario for the distribution of average annual nitrogen and phosphorus NPS loads
between different land use categories. Tables 3a and 3b present the agricultural and forest loads
distributed by jurisdictions for the growing season TMDI,s. Tables 4a and 4b present the
agricultural and forest loads distributed by jurisdictions for the Average Annual TMDLs. These
distributions are based on percentages of each particular land use in each jurisdiction relative to the
total area of that land use in the watershed.

Comments and Responses
I. The commentor states that the point source data used for the baseline modeling appears
somewhat dated, 1992-1997" this data is as much as 10 years old. The commentor continues
that much improvement in point source nutrient reductions has occurred.

Response: MDE is aware that significant improvements in point source loads reductions
have occurred since 1997. A TMDL, which by definition is the assimilative capacity of an
impairing substance that a waterbody can receive and still meet water quality standards, is
independent of the baseline loads. The monitoring data is necessary for the calibration of the
model and to estimate percent reductions but will not aft~ct the assimilative capacity of the
waterbody. The modeling efforts started in 1998; the Department used the best data that was
readily available at that time.
. Thc commentor references page 35. Section 5: MDE states that the Enhanced Nutrient
Reduction (ENR) program provides cost-share grant funds to local governments to retrofit or
upgrade Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs).... The commentor states that the "flush

tax" was incorporated at the added burden of the local governments to pay for these upgrades
and asks `.,,'hat happened to paying 100% of eligible ENR costs?
Response: There was a t)pographical error in this portion of the paragraph. This error has
been corrected and this portion of the paragraph nov,. states: "The Enhanced Nutrient
Reduction (ENR) program provides grant funds to local governments to retrofit or upgrade
Wastewater Treatment Plants (WW'I'Ps) from BNR to ENR at their currentl) approved
design capacit) ."

. The commentor references page 35, Section 5: MDE states that upon completion of the ENR
upgrades, subsequent National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits for
the municipal WWTPs will include nutrient limits. The commentor asks how is MDE going
to handle if current permits expire prior to completion of ENR upgrades. The commentor
also asks if the TMDL will rake effect before it is determined whether loading limits can be
achieved.
Response: Performance standards and a schedule for implementing ENR upgrades are
t)pically set forth in an ENR agreement with the aftccted jurisdiction. Schedules and
performance standards are established with consideration to, among other things, the waste
stream received by the facility, the complexity of the engineering involved, and the
availabilib' of State and local resources. The ENR schedule, which in isolated cases may
need to exceed the maximum five-year term of an NPDES permit, and performance standards
will be referenced in any applicable NPDES permit. Effluent limits based upon operation of
ENR technology ,.,,'ill become effective following completion and start-up of ENR upgrades.
. The commentor references page 35. Section 5; the last paragraph states: "The
implementation of nonpoint source nutrient controls that v, ill attempt to meet the water
quality standards in the Harbor...." The commentor states that this sounds half-hearted and
again sounds as if point source controls are taking the brunt of the Chesapeake Bay clean up.
The commentor asks ',,,'hat assurances do the point sources have that MI)E ',',ill push the
nonpoint source community and in what kind oftimeframe.
Response: Please rel;er to the Assurance of Implementation Section of the I M D L report.
This section has been updated and presents several initiatives and programs that provide
reasonable assurance that the TMDL NPS load allocations can and will be implemented in
order to achieve water quality standards. For example, reductions can be achieved through:
stormwater NPDES permits; the upgrade of sanitary sewer systems and the upgrade or
separation of combined sev"er systems; cooperative agricultural reductions such as
Maryland's Water Quality Improvement Act that requires that comprehensive and
enforceable nutrient management plans be developed, approved and implcmcnted for all
agricultural lands throughout Maryland; and Watershed Restoration Action Strategies
(WRAS). The timeframe for implementation of these and other programs are specific for
each. Maryland's Tributary Strategies implementation plan is still under development but
previous draft plans require that reductions be implemented by 2010.

. The commentor reterences the Point Source Technical Memorandum. The commentor states
that if the County has interpreted the tables in this memorandum correctly, "Fables la, lb, 2a,
2b show the industrial point source has not been required to keep up with nutrient removal
technology via permit limits as have municipal plants. Table la sho~vs International Steel
Group (ISG)-101, a "'major" industrial at 0.86 mgd flow, is allowed a TN concentration of 49
rag/I; WR Grace, listed as a flow of 4.0 mgd, is allowed a TN concentrationof25 mg/I. The
commentor states that these limits appear to be quite high. The commentor states there are
some dischargers not even listed. The commentor asks why aren't private entities held to the
same standard.
R e s p o n s e : The only economical option tor reducing nutrient Ioadings at Publicly-Owned
Treatment Works (POTWs) is through end of pipe treatment. Other options for significant
loading reductions are available at industrial sources. The ability to implement pollution
prevention, wastewater-reuse, production line changes, and product changes renders effluent
concentration levels as a misleading measure of progress for such facilities. Both of the
referenced industrial facilities have achieved significant reductions in nutrient Ioadings. W.R.
Grace continues to implement process and product revisions to continue to achieve further
reductions in nutrient Ioadings. The Department considered an additional treatment
requirements at ISG-101 that will be reflected in the current pending NPDES permit renewal
process and have resulted in a "IN reduction in that outfall from 49 mg/I to 24 mg/I.

. Noting that the report references an annual average concentration ot"4 mg/l as a limit for the
municipal point sources, the Commentor asks, in light of the recent D.C. Circuit decision
interpreting "daily" to require daily loads to be identified in all instances, how MDE is
planning to handle setting "daily" limits/loads? By only setting the two seasonal limits of 3
mg/I and 5 rag/l? The commentor states that if this is so, then the growing season limit of 3
mg/I will not allow tbr any operational flexibility within the plant since 3 mg/I is the absolute
limit of technology. The commentor states that the difference between loading based on
4mg/I and 3 mg/I was considered to be growth.
The Department does not anticipate any significant change in plans to apply two
seasonal limits in the discharge permit that will be required to implement the TMDL.
Response:

. The commentor asks whether MDE will allow for offsets/credits for a facility if final effluent
goes to an alternate source for reuse. If so, the Commentor asks whether an implementation
plan been considered? Finally, the Commentor asks tbr an example of how credits maybe
formulated.
Response: The Department is examining a number of potential options regarding
offsets/credits, and is receiving comments and suggestions from a variety of stakeholders
regarding this concept. MDE invites the commentor or any other agency or group to provide
comments or suggestions regarding how a trading/offsets approach would best be
implemented in Maryland.
. The commentor states that Anne Arundel (AA) County is currently negotiating a

Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for a "nutrient bubble" permit to include all of our

WWI'Ps that discharge to the Bay. Ifa TMDI. for total nitrogen ('IN) and total phosphorus
(TP) is set, how does MDE anticipate AA County to include a facility strapped with a
TMDI.? The MOt; allows for Ioadings flexibility between plants. It appears that a plant with
TMDI. concentration limits s~ill not have much flexibility. The TMDL plant will not have
the flexibility to "'trade" Ioadings with other facilities as specified in the draft MOU.

Response: In general, the purpose of the MOU is to provide flexibility in meeting the Bay
loading cap requirements. The TMDI. for the Baltimore Ilarbor does not contradict the
approach being negotiated in the MOIL MDE has been clear that an', more stringent local
TMI)L requirements may apply in addition to any requirements for meeting water qualit)
standards.
. The commcntor states that their current permit specifies a monitoring schedule of 2 times per
month for TN. If daily means daily, should AA Count), anticipate an increase of monitoring
to daily? If so, this will be adding additional cost and burden on the Count5' for vet)' little
benefit.

Response: MIDE does not anticipate that daily monitoring will be required.
10. The commentor expresses difficult3,' understanding why a nutrient TMDI. within the Inner
Ilarbor is being established at this point in time (i.e., pre-ENR upgrades) while at the same
time MDE's permitting division is working on issuing "bubble permits" to allow "internal
trading." The commentor's understanding was that a TMDL would be issued only as a last
resort. The commentor's feeling is that ifa nutrient TMDL is set at this point in time. MDE
is not giving ENR enhancements a chance and will be limiting growth and flexibilib' in the
area.

Response: As explained in the response to comment g8, MDE has alwa~rs been clear that
any more stringent local TMDL requirements may apply in addition to any requirements for
meeting Chesapeake Bay water quality standards. The TMDI. requirements for the Baltimore
Harbor still allows for issuance of a "bubble" (or watershed) permit that addresses
Chesapeake Bay nutrient caps.
II. The commentor states that a portion of the urban nutrient load is due to sanitary sewer
leakage. Reduction of nitrogen and phosphorus through repair of the sanitaD' sewer system
v, as estimated to be - 10% of the urban load by the Gwynns Falls Water Quality
Management Plan. The commentor continues that the Plan is available through MDE's
Water Management Administration (WMA)- Stormwater Program.

Response: The TMI)L Program has been working closely with WMA's Stormwater
Program and is aware that broken sanitat3, pipes laid in the streambed are a major source of
nutrients, due to wastewater exfiltrating into the stream. One of the most significant planned
implementation measures requires the jurisdictions within the watershed to evaluate their
sanitary sewer systems and to repair, replace, or rehabilitate the system as indicated by the
results of those evaluations (i.e. the separation of combined sewer systems in Baltimore City
and the elimination of sanitary sewer overflows in Baltimore CiD and Baltimore County).

12. The commentor, referencing Section 5.0 Assurance of Implementation, states that the WRAS
being developed in Itoward County is mentioned, but the watershed planning efforts of
Baltimore County and Baltimore City are not acknowledged. Baltimore County has
Watershed Management Plans tbr the County portion of Jones Falls and the Patapsco River
watersheds. Baltimore County has a Watershed Management Plan for Gwynns Falls
developed jointly with Baltimore City. These plans identify and prioritize Capital Program
restoration projects for improvement of water quality.

Response: MDE acknowledges the planning efforts made by the County and the City and
will incorporate information regarding those efforts in the TMDL Assurance of
Implementation Section.
13. The commentor, referencing the Assurance of Implementation section, states that the section
does not acknowledge the fact that local jurisdictions have already implemented many
restoration projects that ha',e resulted in the reduction of nitrogen and phosphorus and have
additional projects in the design phase. Within the three watersheds (Patapsco River,
Gwynns Falls, and Jones Falls) Baltimore County has already expended or budgeted in
excess of $12 million. These efforts are detailed in the annual Baltimore County NPDES Municipal Stormwater Discharge Permit reporl, available through MI)E's Water
Management Administration - Stormwater Program.

Response: MDE acknowledges the investment made by Baltimore County, and as such
additional information will be incorporated into the Assurance of Implementation Section.
14. The commentor states that both Baltimore County and Baltimore City are under Consent
Decrees to repair their respective sanitary sev,'er systems. The commentor continues that the
nutrient reduction that can be achieved through these repairs should be acknowledged under
the Assurances of Implementation.

Response: Language referring to the above-mentioned consent decrees will be added in the
Assurance of Implementation Section. Please also see the response to comment #12.
15. The commentor states that Anne Arundel Count), has developed a Countywide landcover and
impervious cover dataset. It was developed using I-meter true color (RGB) and color
infrared (NIR) 1l-bit orthorectified IKONOS imagery captured in May of 2004. Plans are
underway to update this dataset with intbrmation from 2006. The commentor requests that
MDE please contact the commentor, should MDE be interested in this data for this draft
TMDL or for other purposes.

Response: MDE appreciates Anne Arundel County's invitation and will contact the County
staff lbr tiJture TMDL projects involving land cover data in the county.
16. The commentor states that Anne Arundel (AA) County has developed and is using a
Watershed Management Tool (WMI') to assist in the County's NPDES Municipal Separate
Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit requirements as well as TMDI,s. The commentor

continues that this tool consists of several water quality, hydrology, and hydraulic models. It
is the commentor's belicfthat these models can be used to assist in the development of
TMDI. Implementation Plans. The commentor maintains that using the WMT, a variety of
various management alternatives can be evaluated to determine ifa numeric goal can be met
through the implementation of the ahcmatives. The commentor v, ould like to request a
meeting with key staffat MDE to review the WMT and how the Count) proposes to use it to
assist us in meeting our TMDI.s.

Response: MDE appreciates Anne Arundel County invitation and will contact the County
staff for future TMDI. implementation projects in the county.
17. The commentor states that WMT is currently being used to prioritize all of the subwatersheds
in the County as to each suhwatershed's need for watershed restoration. This tool, similar to
the Howard County WRAS (mentioned on page 36 of the draft report), will bo able to assist
in "identifying and prioritizing watershed restoration ef|brts, which will include the reduction
of nutrient loads from the watershed."

Response: Please see response to comment 16.
18. The commentor states that it appears the Future Conditions (TMDL) Scenario indicates that
the designated uses (except deep channel) can bc met using the strategy set forth in requiring
reductions from wastewater treatment plants, industrial point sources, and 15% reduction in
both agricultural and urban loads. As the commentor understands it, the scenario does not
account for possible reductions due to septic system upgrades or septic connections, or in
reductions from recreational vehicles. The commentor asks whether the County can receive
credit toward the Baltimore Harbor Nutrient TMDL for reductions in loads due to the
implementation of these practices.

Response: In principle, the County can receive credit toward achieving the Baltimore
ttarbor Nutrient TMDL NPS reductions from any practices that are scientificallv justified. It
should be noted that credit being sought to offset increases in point source discharges be',ond
existing allocations would need to be justified through a formal permitting process. MDE is
in the process of developing an offset and trading policx.
19. The commentor stated that nutrient load reductions from wildlife and pet v, aste management
practices are not mentioned in the subject draft TMDL. Because AA County has several
bacteria TMDLs, and the TMDLs indicate the bacteria loads are primarily due to pets and
wildlife, the commentor asks would practices that address the bacteria TMDLs also be able
to Ix: used to address the nutrient TMDLs? Implementing particular practices, such as a
reduction in pet waste, would be beneficial in reducing bacteria as well as in reducing
nutrients. It would seem that practices that address several different types of TMDLs would
make the most of the limited resources local juri~ictions have to address TMDLs.

Response: Though not directly linked, it is assumed that the bacteria management plans,
such as pet waste management and ~nitary sewer infrastructure restoration, ,,','ill have a
significant impact in nutrients loads reductions. In reference to wildlife management,

although tt is not mentioned in the Baltimore Harbor Nutrients TMDLs, the bacteria TMDLs
state the following:
"It is expected that in some waters for which TMDLs will be developed, the bacteria source
analysis indicates that after controls are in place for all anthropogenic sources, the waterbody
will not meet water quality standards. However, while neither Maryland, nor EPA is
proposing the elimination of wildlife to allow for the attainment of water quality standards,
managing the overpopulation of wildlife remains an option for state and local stakeholders.
After developing and implementing to the maximum extent possible a reduction goal based
on the anthropogenic sources identified in the TMDL, Maryland anticipates that
implementation to reduce the controllable nonpoint sources may also reduce some wildlife
inputs to the waters."
20. The commentor states that a significant amount of the Baltimore Harbor subwatershed area
[Other nonpoint source (NPS) Loads], approximately 29%, is not slated for nutrient
reductions. The commentor asks are local jurisdictions permitted to receive credit for
reductions in loads due to best management practices (BMPs) that might be applied to these
areas?

Response: Part of these "Other NPS Loads" are nutrient loads from non-controllable
sources such as forested land. l.ocal jurisdictions will be acknowledged and credited lbr
reductions in loads due to best management practices (BMPs) that might be applied to these
or any other areas. See also response to comment 18.
21. The commentor asks how will the various counties that drain to the Baltimore l larbor know
if they have met their part of the load reductions necessary for the TMDL?

Response: This question will be addressed as part of an iterative implementation planning
process. The Department envisions will involve periodic assessment of progress toward
reaching TMDL goals and the effectiveness of particular programs and practices. To this
end, the State is urging local governments to participate in the Tributary Strategy
Implementation Plan development process for Maryland's ten major basins that drain to
Che~peake Bay. This initiative, although presently focused on meeting nutrients goals in
the Bay, is likely to be integral to the implementation planning process for tributary nutrient
TMDLs.
22. The commentor states AA County, consisting of 46,223 acres within the 268,671 Baltimore
I larbor Subwatershed I, or 17.2%, has a potential urban stormwater point source allocation of
18% 2 of the nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus. The commentor asks why is there a
diffi:rence in the amount of the load allocation as compared to the land acres within the
subwatershed?

Response: The urban stormwater point source allocation of 18% was estimated based on the
percentage of URBAN area in the county relative to the TOTAl. URBAN AREA in the
watershed, not to the TOTAl. AREA.
23. The commentor, referencing Table I of the Draft "I'MDL report and the appendix entitled

AA County has 18% of the land in the watershed. The commentor asks why is there a

24. The commentor states that the loads from point sources and urban/stormwater sources are
distributed to local jurisdictions in Appendix C of the Draft report but the nonpoint source
loads are not distributed. The commentor asks how arc the nonpoint source loads to be
distributed to the local jurisdictions? The commentor also asks how does MDE plan to
determine if each of the local jurisdictions is meeting their part of the nonpoint source load
reduction?

Response: Nonpoint sources loads (agricultural and forest loads) by jurisdiction have been
added to the NPS Technical Memorandum. For the second comment, please refer to the
response to Comment 21.
25. The commentor asks how is future growth taken into account in the allocations?

Response: The TMDL analysis has been revised to include a future allocation for nitrogen.
In addition to this explicit future allocation for nitrogen, future growth is implicitly accounted

from urban areas, and natural sources as stated in the report. One way to account for future
growth in the TMDL is by using the maximum flow design capacity of the wastewater
treatment facilities. Also, any future growth in the watershed is likely to occur in the
remaining land that can still be developed within the v, atershed and this land is limited. It is
expected that any future growth is likely to happen by converting some of the remaining

agricultural, which in some areas such as Baltimore City accounts only for only a minimum
percentage of the total land, into commercial and residential land uses. It is not expected that
lbrest land would be developed. In addition, the TMDLs per se - as required under the Clean
Water Act - are irrespective of changes in land use or Ioadings. A TMDI. is the assimilative
capacity of the waterbody. Please also see the response to Comment 31.
26. The commentors state they are shocked and surprised to find that the total annual nitrogen
load allocations in the proposed TMDL are approximately 50% higher than what was
presented at the last meeting of the MDE's Baltimore Harbor TMDL Stakeholder Advisory
Group (SAG) in December 2003. The commentors continue that this disconnect represents a
total disregard for the efforts of the many stakeholders that participated in the SAG, not to
mention a complete lack of transparency in the decision making process. The commentors
state that no explanation is given in the proposed TMDL for the large changes berween the
December 2003 SAG TMDL (SAG TMDL) and the proposed TMDI. made available tbr
public review (proposed TMDI.).

Response: At the

December 2003 SAG meeting, in the interest of maximizing informed
discussion, MDE presented some initial analysis and figures, not a proposal. Numbers
projected betbre the completion of the analysis changed as the analysis was completed. A
TMDL is an objective process based on complex models and monitoring data and changes
can occur throughout the last part of the development period.
27. The commcntors note that the majority of the increase from the SAG TMDL to the proposed
TMDI. can be attributed to differences in the total nitrogen for industrial point sources in
Baltimore ltarbor. The commentors continue that the SAG TMDL allocated an annual load
of approximately I.I million pounds of nitrogen while in the proposed TM DL, the industrial
point source allocation is nearly double that, approximately 2.1 million pounds of nitrogen
annually. The commentor ends by stating that the remainder of the overall 1.7 million pound
increase is due to higher allocations to nonpoint sources, bolh agricultural and urban
stormwater.

Response: Please also see the

response to Comment 26. In addition, the following are bases
for differences from the preliminary informal estimates:
• The calibration of the model was not final at the time initial projections were
discussed with the SAG; it was preliminary data and analysis.
• Estimates of TMDL loads were based on the average of the last 3 ofthe 6 )'ears the
model scenario was run, as opposed to the December 2003 preliminary estimate that
was based on all 6 years of the model run. The last 3 years were used because
significant WQ improvement occurs in the first 3 years of the model run and it is
more accurate to calculate the TMDL without including these first years of the model
run.

•

Industrial loads were revised after the December 2003 presentation, and part of the
increase is due to 0.462 million pounds of nitrogen (0.007 million pounds of
phosphorus) estimated for the Cox Creek Dredge Material Containment Facility that
~as not included in the original projections.

FINAl.
The new water quality standards were not promulgated when the presentation ",'.'as
made.
The majority of the remainder difference is due to the revision of Industrial Facilities
allocations. The December 2003 estimates were based on Chesapeake Bay Program
(CBP) Tier III allocations that made untenable assumptions by applying municipal
wastewater facilities reduction capabilities to industrial processes. The current
estimate uses the ,same assumptions as Tributary Strategies.
28. The commentors state that the proposed TMDL is also inconsistent `.`.'ith the State's
commitment to Chesapeake Bay Restoration by allowing the discharge of approximately 1.7
million pounds more nitrogen into Baltimore Harbor than is called for in the State's
Patapsco/Back River Tributat) Strategy. The commentors state that the proposed TMDL is
also inconsistent with nitrogen load allocations necessary to protect water quality in the
(Chesapeake) Bay. The commentors reference the February 2006 drat~ of Maryland's
Chesapeake Bay Tributary Strategy State Implementation Plan stating that in the Plan, the
load cap for the Patapsco/Back River Tributary is listed as 5.93 million pounds of nitrogen
per year. The commentors compare this number with allocations in the proposed TMDL
added to the number in the Back River TMI)I,, stating this results in 7.1 million pounds
annually. The commentors continue that they recognize that a TMDL that is protective of
local water quality will not necessarily protect bay water quality - hence a more stringent
load may be required. The commentors recommend that MDE should capitalize on this
opportunity to further the State's commitments to Bay restoration by harmonizing the
different load allocations, particularly with respect to reducing pollution loads from point
sources.

Response: The Department's analysis indicates that `.`..ater quality will be met in Baltimore
I tarbor (with the exception of the Deep Channel because of the channel hydrology
modifications, not due to nutrient Ioadings). The Department agrees with the commentor's
premise that downstream water quality standards must be protected and that dischargers
should be required to meet the most stringent of any applicable requirements. However
because point sources are specifically regulated under discharge permits issued by the State,
the appropriate vehicle to achieve the requested "harmonization" will be through effluent
limitations applied in the individual discharge permits which must be protective of all local
and downstream water quality standards and TMDLs. In addition, the issue of whether the
maximum amount of pollution reduction should be required as part of the local TMI)I,
because of downstream concerns (Ba) water quality) ',',ill need to be addressed by the Bay
Water Quality Model and the Bay TMDL. If. as a result oftbe Bay TMDI,, additional
reductions will be required, the more stringent of the tv, o (local and the Bay) allocations ',`.'ill
appl,',.
29. The commentors are very concerned that the method used to assess attainment of the
dissolved oxygen (DO) criteria in the Open Water Designated Use area is flawed. The
commentors reference page B4, "the analysis indicates that the attainment curve rises above
the reference curve slightly, the time and volume represented by this area is <1% in time an
volume. This results in the designated use meeting its criteria with 0% attainment." The
commentors are adamantly opposed to the implementation of criteria in this tashion. The

commentors continue that the reli:rence curve allows for some exceedances of the water
quality criteria. The purpose of the reference curve is to represent the spatial and temporal
distribution of DO concentrations in areas supporting healthy communities. The commentors
maintain that exceedances beyond those "allowed" by the reference curve, however, mean
that the criterion is not being attained. The commentors state that the load allocations for
nitrogen and phosphorus should have been reduced in the TMDL until the entire attainment
curve fell below the reference curve.

Response: As explained in the TMDL report, the DO criteria attainment assessment for
Baltimore I larbor was performed using the Chesapeake Bay Program Reference Curve
program. The output of this program provides percent attainment and percent non-attainment
with these percentages results rounded to two decimal places. For the Open Water
designated use (from October I to January 31) the output of the program sho',,,s the following
for attainment of DO criteria in the above mentioned designated use: 0.93 attainment, 0.07
allowable exceedance, and 0.00 non-attainment (equivalent to 93% attainment, 7% allowable
exceedance, and 0% non-attainment.
Based on these results, the percent non-attainment for this designated use is 0%. If the
results of the Reference Curve Program were to be output with numbers rounded to three
decimal points, MDE estimates that this percent of'non-attainment should be somewhere
between 0.000 and 0.005 (0.0% and 0.5%). Thus, the statement provided in the Appendix B
of the Draft. TMDL document will be modilied to read as lbllows:
"A visual analysis of the reference curve plot indicates that the attainment curve rises
slightly above the reference curve. The numerical values obtained from the output of
the attainment program shows a 0.00 or 0% non-attainment. Therefore, it is estimated
that the DO exceedance in time and volume time represented by this area should be
between 0.000 and 0.005 (between 0.0% and 0.5%) in time and volume, otherwise if
higher than 0.005, the numerical value of the program output would approximate to the
next decimal showing a 0.01 or I% exceedance. Based on the review of the reference
curve program model output, MDE concludes that this specific designated use meets its
DO criteria."
30. The Commentors request MDE to re-convene the SAG, which the Commentor states "'for
unknown reasons, the stakeholder process came to a grinding halt after December 2003".
The commcntors recommend that MDE rescind the proposed 1MDL to develop a TMDL
that includes input li'om stakeholders as MDE initially envisioned. The Commentors also
note that their comments are supported by Eliza Steinmeier, the Baltimore Harbor
Waterkeeper.
Response: MDE did not stop holding the SAG meetings in 2003. MDE continued meeting
on toxics issues, until the group came to an impasse resulting from Chesapeake Bay
Foundation's (CBF) insistence that the Department address ingestion of toxic sediment by
microscopic invertebrates; the Department is still working with the University to address this
issue. MI)E sees no technical basis for rescinding the TMDL and believes the usual public
participation provided the Department with adequate input from the community.

31. The commentor requests that the seasonal Ma) I through October 31 nutrient loading goal
for the CoxCreek WRF (Permit No. MD0021661) be increased from 68,484 Ibs/growing
season (3mg/L at 15 mgd) to 91,300 Ibs/growing season (4 mg/l. at 15 mgd). There are Ibur
(4) reasons for this request:
Anne Arundel County is currently in the process of finalizing an Enhanced Nutrient
Reduction (ENR) Agreement with MDE which covers all seven of the Count)'s publicly
owned wastewater treatment facilities including the Cox Creek WRF. Negotiations for
this agreement have been ongoing for more than a year with the understanding that the
National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) limits for the Cox Creek
WRF would be based on the equivalent of 4.0 mg/l. at the rated plant capacity of 15.0
mgd on an annual average basis. Lower seasonal permit limits `",'ere not part of this
negotiation process. The County hopes to have this document signed within the next
month and for the ENR design for the Cox Creek WRF to proceed immediately thereafter
and feels that it would be in bad faith for MDE to change the discharge limits for the Cox
Creek WRF before the ENR Agreement has even been executed. All of our assumptions
in these negotiations have been based on direction received from MDE that the loading
goal for the Cox Creek WRF will be based on an average concentration of 4.0 mg/L at
the design capacity (15 mgd).
The Cox Creek WRF has traditionally received a very high strength intluent wastewater
(compared to the County's other six municipal wastewater treatment plants) and often
sees very high peak flow events during wet weather periods. The facility has always had
difficulty achieving full nitrification during cold weather periods (even at~er the BNR
Upgrade). The facility is located on a relatively small parcel of land with no room for
further expansion. The County is already prepared to commit to MDE to upgrade this
facility to achieve ENR limits of 4.0 rag/l. 'IN on an annual average basis. Ilowever, it is
not clear that this thcility can be economically upgraded to achieve the proposed 3.0
mg/L TN limit which would be required by the proposed Baltimore Harbor TMDI. limit
of 68,484 Ibs/gro','ing season. This is not to .say achieving the proposed TMDL is
technically impossible, but that it `'`'ill be very costly to guarantee achievement of this
level of treatment at the design capacity of the facility. Given limited funding resources.
it seems that it `'~,ould be in the best interest ofall parties involved to set the seasonal and
annual TMDL limits for the Cox Creek WRF at a more reasonably achievable 4.0 mg/L
TN. Setting the limits at this point will provide some llexibility for Operations and
therefore reduce the amount of added redundancy, which would otherwise be required for
the design.
Anne Arundel Count) is currently in the process of completing a new Comprehensive
Sewer Strategic Plan, which will be finished later this year. The prqiect build-out flow
estimate for the Cox Creek WRF sewer service area (SSA) is 22.67 mgd. Expansion of
the Cox Creek WRF ',,,ill be necessary in the future to se~,e growth within the existing
designated SSA unless wastewater flow can be diverted to another facility, such as the
Patapsco WWTP in Baltimore Cit'. Based on information received from MDI-, the
County has assumed that the Cox Creek WRF could be expanded within the proposed

FINAl.
ENR nitrogen loading limits by achieving less than 4.0 mg/L TN on an annual average
basis (182,734 Ibs/yr annually). For example, if the Count)' could achieve 3.0 mg/L TN
at the Cox Creek WRF on an annual average basis, the facility could be expanded to 20.0
mgd and still be within the 182,734 Ibs/yr TN ENR loading cap assigned by MDE.
However, ifa 68,484 Ibs/gro~ving season TN limit is imposed by MDE under the
Baltimore Harbor TMDI., this ~ould prevent expansion of the Cox Creek WRF beyond
its current capacity ot"15.0 mgd because v,e do not believe that operation of the Cox
Creek WRF to achieve significantly less than 3.0 mg/L TN is reliably possible on a
seasonal basis. ]'he additional anticipated flow from the existing SSA would all need to
be redirected to other facilities - - most likely the Broadneck WRF or the Patapsco
WWTP in Baltimore City. Itowever, the Broadneck WRF is also limited by its ability to
expand to serve the project 13.86 mgd from its own existing SSA and Anne Arundel
County does not have an Agreement with Baltimore City to expand sewer flow allocation
beyond the currently established quantities. Therelore, if the Waste Load Allocation
assigned to the Cox Creek WRF is set at 68,484 lbs/growing season as proposed in the
draft TMDL, it will limit the County's ability to serve the future residents and businesses
in the currently designated Cox Creek SSA.
The Waste Load Allocations for the Baltimore Harbor TMDI. appear to impose an undue
burden on municipalities (Anne Arundel Count)' and Baltimore City) to achieve
extremely low effluent nutrient concentrations than are required for industrial point
sources. The two municipal systems, both of which treat flow from industries in the
region and suffer from nitrification inhibition, high strength wastewaters, and high peak
flows, are being asked to achieve 3.0 mg/L TN during the growing season while the
industrial sources which have a much more consistent and controlled wastewater flow.
are being assigned higher, more relaxed "IN discharge goals. For example, the ISG
Group has five NPDES permits included in the proposed TMDI. Waste Loading
Allocation, combined which are several times larger than the flow rate from the Cox
Creek WRF, and are only being asked to achieve a 4.0 mg/L TN concentration. Other
industries are being allowed to discharge at 25 mg/L "IN (WR Grace), 8.13 mg/L TN
(Millenium) or higher. Setting concentration limits for industries, especially those with
such large loading contributions, higher than the concentration limits for municipalities
treating a more difficult and unpredictable waste stream is simply not lair.

Response: MDE has reviewed the contributions of industrial discharges and found that ISG
Steel warrants application of reduction goals. ISG Steel has met or exceeded nutrient loading
reduction goals based on the initial baseline of 1985 as reti:renced in various preceding
reports regarding Maryland's nutrient reduction goals and results. This was a facility-wide
result based on the total discharge loads from all sources at the facility. However, upon
further reviews, the Department believes the Ioadings from ISG outfalls should be reduced on
an outfall specific basis, in this case outfall MPI01, due to the relativel) large Ioadings from
this outfall location, and that the only option appears to be additional end of pipe treatment
(the outfall already includes Best Available Technology and ammonia nitrogen removal

what was considered practical for sewage treatment plants to achieve going from secondary

Based on the above changes in ISG's reductions goals, a portion of the current allowable
nitrogen load can be set aside as a future allocation to account for growth in the region. The
surface water discharge permitting in this region will be consistent with the TMDI,, however
the nitrogen future allocation load can be used to adjust the relative nitrogen allocation of

Appendix A
Additional Comments Received After the Public Comment Period
The Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) replied to MDE's original response to CBF's public
comment period comments. Below are the comments in the second letter received by MDE
regarding the Baltimore Harbor TMDI.s for Nitrogen and Phosphorus.
I. The commentor expresses that the response letter did litlle to address the concerns raised:
the "allowable" nitrogen load to Baltimore Ilarbor would be almost 50% higher than
previously suggested, as well as their request that MDE rescind the proposed TMDL and
re-convene the Baltimore Harbor Stakeholder Advisors' Group (SAG) to develop a
TMDL that includes input from stakeholders as MDE initially envisioned. The
commentors re-iterate this request and have also asked the Environmental Protection
Agency to withhold approval of the TMDL until these issues have been resolved.

Response: As explained above (see response to Comment 26), at the December 2003
MDE presented some initial analysis and figures, not a proposal. Numbers projected
before the completbn of the analysis changed as the analysis was completed. A TMI)L
is an objective process based on complex models and monitoring data and changes can
occur throughout the last part of the development period. MDE sees no technical basis
for rescinding the TMDL and believes the established TMDI, usual public participation
process, supplemented by the prior 2002-2003 SAG process have afforded the
Department ample input from the community.
. The total nitrogen load allocation in the proposed TMDI. is approximatebs' 50% higher
than what was presented at the last full meeting of the Baltimore Harbor TMDL SAG in
December, 2003. CBF believes a change of this magnitude merits a detailed explanation,
particularly to the numerous stakeholders that regularly participated on the Baltimore
Harbor SAG until its abrupt halt nearly three years ago. The commentor fails to see hov,
the first three of the following given reasons for the differences between the December
2003 load reduction estimates and those in the draft 2006 TMDL: I) the 2003 simulation
attempted to meet water quality standards everywhere, including the Deep Channel,
whereas the 2006 allocations do not; 2) model calibration was not complete in 2003; 3)
reduction estimates in 2006 were based n three years of scenario input, rather than six
years used in 2003; and revisions to industrial load allocations. The commentor
continues that the presentation given at the December 2003 meeting, it was stated that the
Deep Channel and Deep Water would not meet water quality criteria for dissolved
oxygen. The commentor adds that the changes to the model or calibration could change
the load allocation, but they don't see how that would account for the magnitude of the
change observed - an increase in allowable annual loads of nitrogen of approximately 1.7
million pounds.

Response: As explained above, numbers projected before the completion of the analysis
changed as the analysis was completed. For more details see the response to Comment
27.

FINAl,

. The commentor states that the main reason for the difference between 2003 and 2006
appears to be the allocation of approximately one million pounds of nitrogen per )'ear to
tv, o industrial sources - the Cox Creek Dredged Material Containment Facility
(CCDMCF) and the International Steel Group (ISG). The commentor states that it is
particularly troubling that the permit for CCDMCF was issued in 2004 allowing the
discharge of more than 400.000 pounds of total nitrogen per year into a system that is
already listed on the State's 303(d) report as impaired for nutrients. The commentor
continues that the addition of approximately 600,000 pounds to ISG, without explanation,
from the initial 2003 allocation is also problematic and is inconsistent v, ith load
reductions the State committed to achieve in the Patapsco/Back River Tributary Strategy.

Response: MDE reiterates that the numbers presented at the 2003 meeting were from
just one ofan extensive list of loading scenarios tried v~hile in the long process of
developing the Ilarbor "I'MDL. The TMDL scenario presented in December 2003 ',',as
conducted early during the TMDL development process, and at that time, MDE was very
aggressive in reducing nutrient loads from both point sources and nonpoint sources in an
effort to attain DO criteria in the Deep Channel designated use. In a later scenario
conducted for the purpose of sensitivity analysis, it was demonstrated that even after
reducing by 100% nonpoint sources and point sources, the Deep Channel would not meet
criteria. In other words, eliminating all nutrient loads from the system would still not
bring the Deep Channel into compliance. Therefore. the goal of the TMDL is to achieve
water quality criteria in all other designated uses of the Baltimore Harbor. These
scenarios and their rationale are explained in the TMDL report.
One important issue to point out is that even after adding the 462,000 Ibs/year of nitrogen
allocated to CCDMCF, the reductions to point sources TN from the 1995-1997 baseline
is close to 50% with an additional I I% from nonpoint sources (from baseline urban,
agricultural, and other NPS loads to I.A (not including MOS and FA). Similarly, the
reductions to point sources TP is approximately 28% with an additional 13% from
nonpoint sources. Overall, the reduction from "I'N baseline loads is approximately 37%
(including MOS and FA) and the overall reduction from TP baseline loads is close to
10%.
Finally, the allocation to ISG was reduced by an additional 66.410 pounds of TN and
45,690 pounds of TP after a final revision was made to the point sources loads. The
TMDL as developed provides for the attainment of all designated uses in the Baltimore
Harbor except for that of the Deep Channel.

Dr. Richard Eskin, Director
Technical and Regulatory Services Administration
Maryland Department of the Environment
1800 Washington Boulevard, Suite 540
Baltimore, MD 21230
Dear Dr. Eskin:
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is pleased to approve the Total
Maximum Daily l,oads (TMDLs) for total nitrogen and total phosphorus for the Baltimore
l larbor, v, ith the exception of the Deep Channel as discussed below, that address the Migratory
Fish and Spawning and Open Water (including the restoration variance) designated uses. The
TMDL Report was submitted by the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) on
December 14, 2006, to EPA for review and approval. This TMDL was established and
submitted in accordance with Sections 303(d)(1)(c) and (2) of the Clean Water Act (CWA) to
address impairments of water quality as identified in Maryland's Section 303(d) Lists. The
Baltimore Harbor (basin number 02130903) was identified on Maryland's Section 303(d) Lists
as impaired by nutrients (1996 listing), bacteria (1998 listing), PCBs (1998 listing), metals (1998
listing), suspended sediments ( 1996 listing) and impacts to biological communities (2004). This
approval letter addresses the nutrient listing only.
In accordance with Federal regulations at 40 CFR §130.7, a TMDL must comply with the
following requirements: ( I ) be designed to attain and maintain the applicable water quality
standards; (2) include a total allowable loading and as appropriate, wasteload allocations for
point sources and load allocations for nonpoint sources; (3) consider the impacts of background
pollutant contributions; (4) take critical stream conditions into account (the conditions when
water quality is most likely to be violated); (5) consider seasonal variations; (6) include a margin
of safety (which accounts for uncertainties in the relationship between pollutant loads and instream water quality); and (7) be subject to public participation. ]'he nutrient TMDLs for the
Baltimore l larbor satist~' each of these requirements for areas of the Harbor with the exception of
the Deep Channel. In addition, these TMDLs considered reasonable assurance that the TMDL
allocations assigned to nonpoint sources can be reasonably met. A copy of EPA's decision
rationale [br approval of these TMDLs is included with this letter.

The analysis provided by the state shows that even after the removal of the anthropogenic
sources to their maximum level, the water quality criteria for dissolved oxygen cannot be met in
the Deep Channel. Therefore, EPA is not including that portion of the Baltimore Ilarbor in this
approval. EPA recommends that the Deep Channel remain on the State's CWA Section 303(d)
list of impaired ~aters and evaluate the ~ater quality needs of this portion of the Harbor.
possibly through a Use Attainability Analysis. Following the re-evaluation, an additional q'MDL
to address the needs of the Deep Channel may be required.

As ',ou know', all new or revised National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
permits must be consistent with the TMDI, wasteload allocation pursuant to 40 CFR
§122.44(d)(I)(vii)(B). Please submit all such permits to EPA for review as per EPA's letter
datcd October 1, 1998.
If you have any questions concerning these TMDLs, please contact Mr. Kuo-I_,iang I,ai.

Total Maximum Daily Loads for Baltimore Harbor Watershed
For Nitrogen and Phosphorus, Anne Arundel, Carroll and
Howard Counties, Baltimore City, Maryland

I.

EPA Decision

EPA is approving the nitrogen and phosphorus TMI)I,s for the Baltimore Harbor with the
exception of the Deep Channel. Modeled scenarios included one in which anthropogenic sources
were removed at their maximum level. This model run showed that, even under these extreme
conditions, DO criteria could not be met in the Deep Channel while all other areas of the
ltarbor - the Migratoo' Fish and Spassning and Open Water designated use areas - would attain
the DO criteria. The Chlorophyl 'a' narrative criteria is met in all areas. Because the TMDI,s do
not attain the ~ater quality criteria for the Deep Channel. EPA is not including the Deep Channel
in this approval. Maryland should place the Deep Channel on the section 303(d) list of impaired
waters during the next listing cycle for excessive nutrients. Maryland should consider additional
stud)' for the Deep Channel, possibly including a use attainability analysis, and re-evaluate the
loading requirements for the Deep Channel in order to assure the dissolved oxygen water quality
criteria are attained. Allocation model runs show that the DO criteria and chlorophyll 'a'
narrative criteria are met in all areas of the llarbor except for the Deep Channel as noted above.
The results of this allocation run, i.e. the proposed allocations to the point and nonpoint sources
as discussed below, represent the TMDLs that EPA is approving with this action. EPA believes
the TMDLs as proposed by MDE and the implementation of the included allocations x~ill result
in considerable improvement in the Baltimore l larbor. However, further work is needed in the
Deep Channel. This approval assumes the allowance of the continuation of water quality
standards restoration variance for the Deep Water of the Ilarbor, i.e. a 7% variance of the DO
criteria.
I1.

Introduction

The Clean Water Act (CWA) requires that Total Maximum Daily Loads ('FMDI,s) bc
developed for those waterbodies that will not attain water quality standards after application of
technology-based and other required controls. A "lMl)l, sets the quantit? of a pollutant that ma)
be introduced into a waterbody without causing an exceedance of the applicable water quality
standard. EPA's regulations define a TMDI, as the sum of the wasteload allocations (WLAs)
assigned to point sources, the load allocations (I,As) assigned to nonpoint sources and natural
background, and a margin of safety (MOS).
A TMDI, is a written plan and analysis established to ensure that a waterbody ',,.,ill attain
and maintain ~sater quality standards. A TMDL is a scientifically-based strategy which
considers current and foreseeable conditions, the best available data, and accounts for uncertainty
with the inclusion of a margin of satety. TMDI,s may be revised in order to address new water
quality data, better understanding of natural processes, refined modeling assumptions or anal) sis
and/or real location.

This document sets forth the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) rationale
for approving the TMDLs for nitrogen and phosphorus in the Baltimore Harbor (stream code
02130903) in Maryland. These TMDLs were established to address impairment of water quality
as identified in Maryland's 1996 Section 303(d) l,ist of impaired waters. The Maryland
Department of the Environment (MDE) submitted the "lotal Maxtmum Daily Loads oJNitrogen
and Phosphorus for the Baltimore I1arbor in Anne ArundeL Carroll and Howard Counties
Baltimore City. Ma~'land dated December 2006 (TMDL Report), to EPA for final review by
letter dated December 14, 2006, which was received by EPA on December 19, 2006. The
TMDI. Report includes two Technical Memoranda, Significant Nutrient Point Sources in the
Baltimore Ilarbor (Patapsco River Mesohaline) Watershed and Significant Nutrient Nonpoint
Sources in the Bahmlore tlarbor (Patapsco River Mesoholine) Watershed.
The TMDL report as submitted by the MDE establishes TMDI.s for nutrients that:
(1) are protective of aquatic life in all areas of the Harbor with the exception of the Deep
Channel (dredged navigation channel); (2) meet Maryland's and the District's nutrient-related
water quality standards with the exception of the Deep Channel; and (3) specifically meet the
numeric criteria for dissolved oxygen and Chlorophyl 'a'.
Based on this review, EPA determined that the lbllowing seven regulatory requirements
have been met for all areas of the Ilarbor with the exception of the Deep Channel. We will
address the Deep Channel later in this Decision Rationale.

The TMDL is designed to implement applicable water quality standards.
The TMDL includes a total allowable load as well as individual wasteload
allocations and load allocations.
The TMDL considers the impacts of background pollutant contributions.
The TMDL considers critical environmental conditions.
The TMDL considers seasonal environmental variations.
The TMDL includes a margin ofsafety.
The TMDL has been subject to public participation.

In addition, I-PA considered whether there was reasonable assurance that the load
allocations for the nonpoint sources in the TMDI.s would be met.

Impairments Identified by the District and Maryland

The Baltimore Harbor was first identified on the section 303(d) List of impaired waters
(the 1996 list) as impaired by nutrients due to signs of eutrophication, expressed as high levels of
chlorophyl 'a' (chl "a') and low concentrations of dissolved oxygen (DO). MDE uses measures
of DO and chl "a' to understand the impacts of nutrients on the ecosystem. For this reason, MDE
established TMDLs for nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) in the Harbor.
The Baltimore Harbor has also been identified on the impaired v, aters list as impaired by
bacteria (1998), toxics (1998), metals (1998), suspended sediment (1996), and biological impacts
(2004). Although in some cases it may be efficient to address all ofthe identified impairments in
a particular water body at the same time in a single TMDL, it is not a requirement of the CWA or

EPA's regulations for TMDLs to be established that way. In this particular case, the TMDI.s
submitted by MDI" were developed to address the excessive nutrient issue only.
EPA finds that these TMDLs designed to restore and maintain the aquatic life uses in
their respective waters are in accordance with the CWA's Section 303(d) requirements to resolve
the listed impairment and achieve the applicable water qualiD, standards (with the exception of
the Dccp Channel). EPA also agrees that the "FMDI.s. once implemented, will improve the v, ater
quality of the Ilarbor.
As discussed belo',,, the criteria used as the end points for the TMDLs are dissolved oxygen
(DO) criteria and chl 'a" critieria. The Harbor has several criteria for DO. depending on the area
of the tlarbor. These criteria were de',cloped for aquatic life protection.

IV.

Allocation Summary

TMDLs are established at a level necessary to attain and maintain existing applicable
water quality standards, with the exception of the Deep Channel. The nutrient loading
allocations in these TMI)I.s were developed to assure that all applicable water quality standards
related to aquatic life use would be attained and maintained.
Tables I, 2.3 and 4 below summarize the allocations developed in this TMDI.. In
addition to the daily loads, the allocations are presented as annual loads and seasonal loads.
Seasonal loads were included since the DO and chl 'a" criteria include seasonal considerations.
In addition to the following summary tables, technical memoranda were included with the
"I'MDI. that contain more specific allocations by source. These allocations are part of the TMDL
and will be discussed in a later section of this Decision Rationale.

Background
Baltimore Itarbor Watershed

The watershed draining into the Harbor is the Patapsco River Watershed, which includes
Jones Falls, Gwynns Falls, Colgate Creek, Bear Creek, Curtis Creek, Stony Creek, and Rock
Creek. The Patapsco River Mesohaline (PATMH) segment, or the Baltimore Harbor estuary, is
located on the west side of the Chesapeake Bay. The Harbor estuary is the 15 mile tidal region
ofthe lower Patapsco River.

Existing Water Quali~'

The Chesapeake Bay Water Quality Monitoring Program has recorded measurements in
the Harbor indicating anoxic and hypoxic events occur as earl3,' as April and extend until October
every year. Increased algal blooms have been found to occur yearly during the ',,.arm season.
Anoxic conditions occur at the bottom of the navigation channel as well as most tributaries.
MDE suggests that the origin of the low DO in the Ilarbor is not from anoxic Bay water but from

the Harbor's internal processes. Surface DO concentrations did not f~ll below 5 mg/I. Bottom
water DO values ranged from 0 mg/I to 11 mg/I.
Chl 'a' observations show values above the 50ug/l criteria every year, with a seasonal
pattern of higher values during the warm months. Concentrations rarely exceed 100ug/I. Bottom
chl 'a' values are normally below 20ug/I.
A detailed discussion of the llarbor water quality can be found in the TMDL report.

VII.

Technical Approach
Modeling Framework

MDE chose a set of time-variable "~,ater quality models as the tool to link the sources of
nutrient Ioadings to the DO criteria and chl 'a' goals. The computational framework chosen for
these TMDLs is the three dimensional, time-variable Baltimore ttarbor Eutrophication Model
(BHEM). This water quality simulation package provides a generalized fi'amework for modeling
nutrient fate and transport in surface waters. The BHEM includes a watershed model, a
hydrodynamic model, a water quality model and a sediment flux model. The BHEM was
calibrated to reproduce observed water quality characteristics for 1992 - 1997 conditions. The
calibrated model was peered reviewed by various modeling technical groups. The model and
calibration process is described in more detail in the TMDL. report as well as a separate modeling
report.
TMDL Analysis F r a m e w o r k
The nutrient TMDL analysis consisted of two broad elements: an assessment ofgrowing
season loading conditions and an assessment of average annual loading conditions. Both the
growing season and the average annual flow condition represent the critical conditions under
which the symptoms of eutrophication are typically most acute. Maryland adopted the
Chesapeake Bay DO criteria and its associated attainment methodology, utilizing DO biological
reference curves to represent the spatial and temporal distribution of DO concentrations. MDE
applied the method using the Cumulative Frequency Distributions for the Harbor generated from
model output and compared against the CBP reference curves to assess spatial and temporal DO
criteria exceedences.
Model results were compared to the quantitative implementation of the narrative chl 'a'
criteria as: (I) ensuring that instantaneous concentrations remain below 100 ug/I at all times; and
(2) minimizing exceedences of the 50 ug/l, 30-day rolling average, to a frequency that will not
result in ecologically undesirable conditions.

Model Scenarios
MDE ran several scenarios: (I) baseline conditions; (2) future conditions (the TMDI.);
and (3) maximum anthropogenic reduction from the Baltimore Harbor. The baseline serves as
the existing condition for a point of reference to compare future reduction needs. The future

condition is the TMDL. The third scenario was used as a bounding exercise to determine if is
possible to achieve water quality standards in the Deep Channel.
The baseline ','.as run for the years 1995 to 1997, which represent a v, et, dry and average
)'ear. The attainment results for DO for the baseline is shown in Table 9. The chl 'a' analysis
shov, ed that in both surface and bottom water chl "a' concentrations exceeded 50ug/I during
earl)' spring and the summer months of 1995 and occasionally were predicted to exceed 100ug!l.

Model results fbr the maximum removal ofanthropogenic sources showed that DO
concentrations will be less than Img/I in the Deep Channel for approximately 57.8% of the time
and volume. The Deep Channel criteria arc not met under this scenario. Hydrodynamic
conditions of the Harbor system create conditions whereby the I larbor channel becomes anoxic
for periods in the summer.
The TMDL scenario was based o n a simulation with: ( I ) WWTP discharges set at design
flow and nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations base on Maryland's Enhanced Nutrient
Reduction strategy; (2) industrial discharges based on permitted flow and concentrations of
nitrogen and phosphorus based on estimates of loading reductions due to technological
improvements; and (3) urban stormwater and agricultural loads from all watersheds reduced by
15%. The municipal concentrations are consistent with Maryland's Tributary Strategy and ENR
policy. Results of the TMI)I. scenario are shown in Table 10.

As can be seen the DO criteria is met everywhere except the Deep Channel. This is not
unexpected since the more critical condition of removal of all of the anthropogenic loads would
not achieve DO criteria in the Deep Channel. The chl 'a' concentrations remain below 50ug/I in
both the surface and bottom waters, indicating attainment of the narrative criteria for chl "a'.

VIII. Discussions of Regulatory Requirements
EPA has determined that these TMDLs are consistent with statutory and regulatory
requirements and EPA policy and guidance with the exception of the Deep Channel. EPA's
rationale for approving the TMI)Ls for the ttarbor with the exception of the Deep Channel is set
forth according to the regulatory requirements listed below.
The TMDI, is the sum of the individual WLAs for point sources and the LAs for
nonpoint sources and natural background and must include a MOS. The TMDI, is commonly
expressed as:
TMDL = ~WI,As +.~LAs + MOS
Where:

The TMDLs are designed to implement the applicable water quality standards.

The TMDLs were designed to address the eutrophication problem in the Harbor. The DO
criteria and narrative chl "a' were used as the endpoints to address the water quality problem.

As discussed above, the "I'MDL allocations met all DO criteria with the exception of the
Deep Channel DO. Further, the maximum removal ofanthropogenic sources still did not allow
the Deep Channel DO criteria to be met. There is a reasonable allocation scenario to meet all of
the other DO criteria. Therefore, EPA believes the TMDL meets the water quality standards
requirements for all areas of the I larbor except the Deep Channel. M DE should reconsider this
portion of the Harbor by including it on the state's section 303(d) List, consider a Use
Attainability Analysis and re-evaluate the water quality and allocation needs for the Deep
Channel.
The state's chl 'a" criterion states "Chlorophyll a - Concentrations of chlorophyll a in

undesirable consequences that would render tidal waters unsuitable for designated uses". MDE
used EPA guidance as well as other technical sources to determine undesirable concentrations.
MDE's interpretation of the narrative criteria for chl 'a' in the Harbor is comprised of the
following:
I. Ensure that instantaneous concentrations remain bclm~, 100ug/I at all times, and
2. Minimize e×ceedences of'the 50ug/I, 30-da3, rolling average to a frequency that will
not result in ecologically undesirable conditions.

The T M D L s include a margin of safety.

The CWA and EPA's TMDL regulations require TMDLs to include a margin of safety to
take into account any lack of knowledge concerning the relationship between effluent limitations
and water quality. EPA guidance suggests two approaches to satisfy the MOS requirement.
First, it can be met implicitly by using conservative model assumptions to develop the TMDI.
and its allocations. Alternately, it can be met explicitly by allocating a portion of the allowable
load to the MOS. The MOS in these TMDI.s is explicit as 5% of the agricultural loads.

The TMDLs have been subject to public participation.

MDE conducted a public review of the proposed "I'MDLs for nitrogen and phosphorus for
the Ilarbor. The public comment period was open from June 6, 2006 to July 5, 2006. MDE
received five sets of comments. Comments were received from Anne Arundel County (tv.,o from
the Department of Public Works, and one from the Office of Environmental and Cultural
Resources); and Baltimore County and Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) (2 individual
comments). MDE responded to all comments. The comments and responses were included v, ith
the TMDL submitted to EPA. MDE also hosted a Baltimore Ilarbor TMDL Stakeholder
Advisory Group (SAG).
The CBF continued to have concerns with the TMDI,s after the close of the comment
period and after receipt of MDE's response to their initial comments. MDE continued to discuss
and meet with the CBF to attempt to resolve the issues before FPA took final action on the
TMDLs as submitted by the state. The CBF's main concerns included the apparent large
increase in allocated loads between the 2003 presentation to the SAG and the final TMDL and
the fact that the standards were not met everywhere in the Harbor. MDE met most recentl> on
November 5, 2007, to resolve the issues. A letter dated December 3, 2007, responded to the
CBF concerns. EPA believes that MDE's response adequately addressed the CBF concerns.

There is reasonable a ~ u r a n c e that the proposed LAs can be met.

The TMDI, report included a section on "'Assurance of Implementation". The
implementation of point source nutrient controls that will be an integral component to meet water
quality standards in the Harbor will be executed through the state's Enhanced Nutrient Reduction
(ENR) strategy and National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits. The
ENR program provides grant funds to local governments to retrofit or upgrade WWTPs from
BNR to ENR at their currently approved design capacity. Deadlines for completion of" ENR
upgrades will be incorporated into NPDES permits based on the State's ENR upgrade schedule.
The implementation of the stormwater and nonpoint source controls will be through two
approaches - stormwater NPDES permits and cooperative agricultural reductions. The five
jurisdictions are required to participate in the stormwater NPDt'S program. Subsequently,
stormwater management programs have been implemented by the Counties and the City to
control MS4 discharges to the maximum extent practicable. Additional significant planned
implementation measures in the I larbor Watershed involve the upgrade or separation of
combined sev.'er systems in the City and the upgrade of sanitat3" sewer systems in Baltimore
County.
Ma~'land's Water Quality Improvement Act requires that comprehensive and
enforceable nutrient management plans be developed, approved and implemented for all
agricultural lands throughout Maoland. The Act requires that nutrient management plans for

Dear Mssrs. DaVia & Morton:
I am writing with regard to the Clean Water Act, Section 401 Water Quality Certification
("WQC") for the AES Sparrows Point LNG and Mid-Atlantic Express LLC (collectively "AES')
Dredging and Pipeline Project ("Project"). The Joint Permit Application for proposed impacts to
jurisdictional wetlands and waterways was received on January 8, 2007 (Corps of Engineers
Application CENAB-OP-RMN 2007-01644-MI6). The project includes the following
discharges pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act: (1) approximately 171 stream
crossings through approximately 23 acres of wetlands and other navigable waters associated with
the pipeline; (2) installation of a retaining wall along the shoreline of the proposed terminal
facility; and (3) discharge of decant water from the contaminated sediments dredged from
Baltimore Harbor.
On January 9, 2007, the Maryland Department of the Environment ("MDE" or "the
Department") received the AES application for a Coastal Facilities Review Act CCFRA") permit
from the State of Maryland. The CFRA provides for a consolidated review of all of the
environmental permits required by the Department under the Environment Article of the State of
Maryland. The authorizations related to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ("Corps") review of
the project include the Tidal Wetlands License for the proposed dredging and dredged material
disposal and the Nontidal Wetlands and Waterways Permit for construction of the proposed
pipeline. Neither application included an express request for a water quality certification under §
401 of the Clean Water Act.

On April 25, 2008 the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") and the Corps
issued a Joint Public Notice announcing the availability of the Draft Environmental Impact
Statement ("EIS") for the project. Consistent with the established coordination practices
between MDE and the Corps, the Public Notice contained the Corps' request that MDE review
the proposed Section 404 discharges for compliance with the State's water quality standards.
The Notice also stated that the Section 401 certifying agency has a statutory limit of one year in
which its decision. Accordingly, the State has until April 25, 2009, to make its decision on the
WQC.
In early December, 2008, FERC released the Final EIS for the project. Based on letters from
the Corps to FERC and to AES on the still pending outstanding information necessary to make
its permit decision, AES requested, by letter dated March 16, 2009, that the Corps suspend
processing of its application. By letter dated March 25, 2009, the Corps officially withdrew the
AES application for a Section 10/Section 404 permit. Since Corps regulations do not address the
effect of a withdrawal of an application on the timeframe for a WQC decision, it is not clear
whether the State must still make a decision on the WQC by April 25, 2009. However, the State
is rendering its decision herein in order to ensure that the State's certification is not inadvertently
waived by operation of law.
The Department has been an active participant in the review o f the proposed AES Sparrows
Point LNG Facility. Regarding the proposed impacts to wetlands and waterways, MDE
requested additional information by letters dated May 7, 2007, August 15, 2007, and January 23,
2008. Despite the additional information provided by AES in response both to these requests
and the requests of other resource agencies, there remains outstanding information/issues
regarding the proposed impacts to wetlands, waterways, and water quality. These issues were
discussed in the State's comments on the Draft and Final EIS dated June 16, 2008, and January
13, 2009, respectively. These issues are summarized below:
. Final Disposition of the Processed Dredged Material. AES proposes to dredge
approximately 3.7 million cubic yards o f contaminated sediments and to process the
material by mixing it with reagent admixtures - principally portland cement - and market
it as a beneficial product. Although the Final EIS accepts the premise that the processed
dredged material ("PDM") would be suitable for use in landfill grading, mine
reclamation, and a variety of other uses, no specific end users are identified, nor is there
any evaluation of the potential environmental impact of these end uses.
In the event that the PDM is not marketable as a beneficial product, AES has indicated
that two companies, Waste Management and Allied Waste Services, are willing to accept
"environmentally suitable" material at landfills in Northern Virginia. However, neither
company has entered into a binding, enforceable commitment to accept the PDM and,
consequently, there is no guarantee that the PDM will be appropriately managed in the
event markets do not materialize. Without such guarantees, the possibility remains that
the PDM will be stockpiled at the terminal, which does not have adequate space or
pollution control measures for the large volume of material that would be stockpiled.
Accordingly, AES has not demonstrated that the PDM will ultimately be managed to
ensure compliance with water quality standards.

Furthermore, AES has not provided test results analyzing the leaching potential of the
PDM. While AES has provided data concerning other material dredged from other
locations, it has not done so with respect to the largely contaminated material that would
be dredged from Baltimore Harbor. Without those data, the Department cannot conclude
that the ultimate disposal of the PDM - whether stockpiled on the Site or re-used as a
beneficial product - will not cause or contribute to a violation o f State water quality
standards.
. 118-Aere Anoxic/Hypoxic Areas from the Proposed Dredging and TMDL Issue~. AES
proposes to dredge an approximately 118-acre turning basin adjacent to the terminal to a
depth o f approximately 45 feet. The dredging will take place within waters of the
Patapsco River designated as Use II waters, see COMAR 26.08.02.08K(2)(b), and to
which a seasonally variable dissolved oxygen ("DO") water quality standard applies,
ranging from 6 mg/1 under certain circumstances to 1 mg/l for seasonal deep channel
refuges. See id., COMAR 26.08.02.03-3C(8)Co)(1), (0(I).
During the summer months, the presence o f a pycnocline - i.e., a high density layer o f
water that separates the deep, cooler, more saline waters from the less saline, warmer
surface waters - acts as a barrier to the ability of bottom waters to mix with the upper
layers, with the result that waters below the pycnocline experience dissolved oxygen
levels at or near zero mg/l. At this level, no aquatic life can survive. Existing data
indicate that, within Baltimore Harbor, this phenomenon generally occurs at
approximately 30 feet of depth. This is reflected in Figure 1 below:

Figure 1: DO Profiles in the Baltimore Harbor Main Channel and Extent of anoxia in
Proposed Dredge Site; Minimum DO by depth (during May-September)
By dredging to 45 feet, the AES project will both increase the volume of water lying
below the point at which DO falls to zero rag/1 and decrease the areal extent of the
submerged bottom that currently lies above the 30-foot line and at which aquatic life can
survive. This is illustrated by the following schematic:

At current depths, the Department estimates that 4% (5.2 million ft3) of the volume o f
water currently within the proposed dredge area is anoxic. Dredging the site to 45 feet
will result in an additional 72 million ~ ofanoxic water. At that time 33% of the total
water volume within the area will be anoxic. With respect to submerged lands, the
proposed dredging will eliminate areas that currently provide habitat for aquatic life and
replace it with an approximately 118-acre area in which no benthic organisms can
sur3/1ve.

While the Department issued a license in 2005 for Barletta-Willis, Inc., to dredge an area
within the area proposed to be dredged by AES, the Department has since completed a
nutrient Total Maximum Daily Load ("TMDL") for Baltimore Harbor and determined
that water quality standards for dissolved oxygen were not achievable, in part because of
the presence of anoxic/hypoxic areas within portions o f the Harbor. See Exhibit 1 (Total
Maximum Daily Loads of Nitrogen and Phosphorus for the Baltimore Harbor in Anne
Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll and Howard Counties and Baltimore City, Maryland (Dec.
2006)). The anoxia/hypoxia and TMDL issues are noted in MDE's comments on the
Draft EIS with a request that FERC "clearly acknowledge" in the Final EIS "that this
project would result in the permanent loss of the area being dredged as a viable
component of the ecosystem. The EIS should also note that appropriate
mitigation/compensation will be provided to offset the environmental loss." The Final
EIS does not acknowledge the 118-acre permanent loss of aquatic habitat and impact on
water quality, instead characterizing that impact as temporary. It does, however, require
AES to continue its coordination with State and federal resource agencies concerning the
DO impact, including the development o f any necessary mitigation plans. Although
AES, in September 2008, submitted a revised Aquatic Resources Mitigation Plan
recognizing the potential for low DO in the dredged area, that plan did not propose
mitigation specifically for the creation of additional anoxic/hypoxic areas.
The increase in hypoxic/anoxic areas cannot be directly mitigated through conditions
imposed on a § 401 water quality certification; the habitat that currently exists in the area
to be dredged, while impaired, will simply cease to exist in its entirety ifAES proceeds as
proposed. In the event that AES resumes its coordination with State and federal resource
agencies, as required by FERC, and proposes measures to mitigate indirectly the water

quality impact o f the dredging, MDE will consider those measures and re-visit its
certification decision at that time.
. Final Pipeline Route and Avoidance/Minimization of Pipeline Impacts. while the Final
EIS identifies a pipeline route, approximately 16.5 miles o f the proposed route has not
been surveyed because AES has not been granted access to the affected properties.
Because AES has not prepared final plans depicting the specific areas and resources to be
affected by the pipeline in these areas, the Department is not in a position to determine
that the Project meets applicable water quality standards.
Moreover, with respect to the many wetland and stream crossings required by the Project,
the State of Maryland is on record as urging the minimization of impacts to these
resources by crossing them via horizontal directional drilling ("HDD") instead of
trenching. The Final EIS, however, does not include complete evaluations and plans for
HDD crossings at a number of locations, including Wild Cat Branch, Back River,
Gunpowder Falls, Little Gunpowder Falls, White Marsh Run, Winters Run, and Deer
Creek. Although AES has provided additional information to the Corps since the release
of the Final EIS on these crossings, some o f this information conflicts with
recommendations in the EIS. For example, the EIS recommends, and the FERC Order
requires, HDD at White Marsh Run and Winters Run. AES, however, continues to argue
in additional information recently provided to the Corps that HDD crossings at White
Marsh Run and Winters Run are not justified. With respect to Deer Creek, its
designation as a Tier 11 water, see COMAR 26.08.02.04-10, its status as a State Scenic &
Wild River, Md. Code Ann., Nat. Res. § 8-402(a)(2), and the presence of sensitive
species (e.g., the Maryland darter) all indicate strongly that impacts should be avoided
through the employment of an HDD crossing. AES concedes that HDD is feasible for
Deer Creek, but continues to resist an HDD crossing. The impacts associated with this
one crossing will vary significantly depending on which crossing method is ultimately
employed - a decision that will reached through the ongoing consultation process with
State and federal resource agencies. Until then, with information outstanding on the
potential impacts of the final pipeline route, no final plans, and no final word as to how
AES will cross several sensitive areas, it is not possible to determine if the proposed
pipeline minimizes impacts to wetlands and waterways or otherwise violates applicable
water quality standards.
.

Rare, Threatened, and Endangered Species Impacts. There is consultation ongoing under
Section 7 o f the Endangered Species Act related to the potential impact of the Project on
a variety of rare, threatened, and endangered species, including several aquatic species
(e.g., sea males, sei whales, Maryland darter) that could be adversely affected by the
dredging and stream crossings proposed by AES. Completion of ongoing consultation
regarding these issues will likely not occur until the Fall of this year. Until
consultation/coordination on the Project's potential impacts to State and federally-listed
rare, threatened, and endangered species is complete, the Project is not consistent with
Maryland water quality standards, which are designed, among other things, to ensure

protection o f aquatic life and wildlife, including rare, threatened, and endangered species.
See COMAR 26.08.02.01A, B.
Based on the extent of outstanding information, MDE is unable to conclude that, on this
record, the Project will be carried out in compliance with Maryland water quality standards.
Accordingly, the State of Maryland hereby denies the Clean Water Act, Section 401 Water
Quality Certification for the Project. The Department will reconsider this decision upon the
applicant's fulfillment ofthe above information/consultation requirements. Please note that the
State is continuing to review the AES application for a Coastal Facilities Review Act permit
pursuant to Title 14, Subtitle 5, of the Environment Article, Annotated Code o f Maryland. MDE
will be in contact with AES regarding additional information necessary for the completion of its
review of that application.
Pursuant to § 717r(d)(l) of the Natural Gas Act, 15 U.S.C. § 717r(dXI), AES has the right to
seek review of this decision through a civil action filed with the United States Court of Appeals
for the Fourth Circuit. The record for any such review would be the consolidated record
maintained by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in docket CP07-62-000, CP07-63000, CP07-64-000, and CP07-65-000.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 410-537-3763 or by e-mall at
