Description
Excerpt: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) required California to identify the Garcia River as a water body with insufficient pollution controls and, as required for waters so identified, to set so-called “total maximum daily loads” (“TMDLs”) — the significance of which we explain later — for pollution entering the river. Appellants challenge the EPA’s authority under the Clean Water Act (“CWA” or the “Act”) § 303(d), 33 U.S.C. § 1313(d), to apply the pertinent identification and TMDL requirements to the Garcia River. The district court rejected this challenge, and we do as well.
