ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL-9088-3]


Notice of Final Residual Desigination of Certain Storm Water 
Discharges in the State of Maine Under the National Pollutant Discharge 
Elimination System of the Clean Water Act

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Regional Administrator of the Environmental Protection 
Agency's (EPA) New England Regional Office is providing notice of a 
final residual designation determination made on October 28, 2009 in 
accordance with Section 402(p) of the Clean Water Act, and implementing 
regulations in 40 CFR 122.26(a)(9)(i)(D). The final determination 
requires that storm water discharges from impervious areas equal to or 
greater than one acre in the Long Creek watershed (South Portland, 
Westbrook, Scarborough, and Portland, Maine) be authorized by a permit 
under the federal Clean Water Act because those discharges contribute 
to a violation of water quality standards in Long Creek. Copies of the 
final residual designation and other materials are available for 
inspection online as described elsewhere in this notice document.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jennie Bridge, EPA New England Region,
