Incorporating Climate Change Analysis into Stream Temperature TMDLs Webinar

South Fork Nooksack River Pilot Project This National 303(d) Restoring Our Impaired Waters webinar covered the importance of including climate change impacts in stream temperature total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) in Washington’s South Fork Nooksack River. Presenter James Kardouni illustrated how this approach allows for collaboration, which can lead to broader water management strategies such as Endangered Species Act recovery actions. Kardouni is the water quality lead for the state of Washington’s Department of Ecology’s Environmental Assessment Program. In this role, he also serves as the TMDL lead in the Nooksack River basin and San Juan Islands. The webinar was recorded on July 11, 2024.
