Clean Water Plans

Clean water plans are a watershed-based approach to outline a strategy to improve or protect water quality in a waterbody. These plans document pollution sources, set pollutant reduction goals, and identify strategies that communities may use to improve water quality. Types of Clean Water Plans include Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL), Alternative Restoration Plan (ARP) and Nine Element Plan (9E). EPA has set specific criteria that must be met for these three types of watershed-based plans.
