Lower Clark Fork River Watershed Advisory Group (WAG)

Watershed advisory groups (WAGs) provide local public input and guidance to DEQ during the development of water quality improvement plans or "Total Maximum Daily Loads" (TMDLs) for water bodies that fail to meet water quality standards. TMDLs are designed to reduce the levels of pollutants, such as bacteria and sediment, in impaired water bodies.

The Lower Clark Fork River Subbasin WAG was formed to develop and implement TMDLs to improve water quality in the Lower Clark Fork River Subbasin. The WAG met from September 2005 to May 2007, culminating in development of the Lower Clark Fork River Subbasin Assessment and Total Maximum Daily Loads. The document was submitted to public comment and approved by EPA in 2007.
