Phase 5.3.2 Watershed Model• In response to issues raised and agreed
upon by the partnership, two changes are being made to the watershed model to produce phase 5.3.2.
• 2010 TMDL based on phase 5.3.0
• 2011 phase 2 WIPs based on phase 5.3.2
• Discussed in Shawn Garvin letter of 6/11/2010 and email of 1/17/2011
3
Two Changes Agreed to by AgWG / WQGIT / PSC
• Improved land use estimates with more complete urban coverage– Especially improved in low density areas
• Refinements to the simulation of agricultural nutrient management– Improved definition of nutrient management– Improved data– Improved accounting– Additional details from AgWG/WTWG 1/14/11
4
Pilot of 5.3.2 Land Use: Shenandoah Valley
5
Improved Land Use Estimates
• Increase in urban land in the Phase 5.3.2 land use data matches better with– Turf grass industry data– Local impervious surface data– State septic data– USDA Agricultural Census
6
Refinements to nutrient management
• Improved definition of nutrient management
• Improved application timing data
• Improved manure accounting– Discontinue automatic transfer of manure –
Use the state-reported transfers instead– Improved accounting of all manure nutrients
7
Partnership Review
• Improved land use estimates with more complete urban coverage– Independently reviewed by USGS and CBP
STAC– Reviewed by USWG and WQGIT
• Refinements to the simulation of agricultural nutrient management– Refinements arose from WQGIT, WTWG, and
AgWG– Details approved by same groups in Jan 2011
8
State data deadline
• Requested data by 2/7/11– Will not be updated in p5.3.2 if not received
by 2/22/11
• Agricultural– Application and CAFO/AFO data
• Stormwater– Do BMPs include federal land?
• Wastewater– Update facility lists
