or might reasonably be expected to cause pollution of the waters of
the state in contravention of the standards.
Any building, lot, parcel of land, or portion of land, whether
improved or unimproved, including adjacent sidewalks and parking strips.
Discharge compliance with water quality standards. The condition
that applies where a municipality has been notified that the discharge
of stormwater may have caused or has the reasonable potential to cause
or contribute to the violation of an applicable water quality standard.
Under this condition, the municipality must take all necessary actions
to ensure future discharges do not cause or contribute to a violation
of water quality standards.
303(d) listed waters. The condition in the municipality's
storm sewer that applies where the discharge is to a 303(d) listed
water. Under this condition, the stormwater management program must
ensure no increase of the listed pollutant of concern to the 303(d)
listed water.
Total maximum daily load (TMDL) strategy. The condition in the
municipality's storm sewer where a TMDL, including requirements
for control of stormwater discharges, has been approved by EPA for
a water body or watershed into which it discharges. If the discharge
did not meet the TMDL stormwater allocations prior to September 10,
2003, the municipality was required to modify its stormwater management
program to ensure that reduction of the pollutant of concern specified
in the TMDL is achieved.
The condition in the municipality's storm sewer that applies
if a TMDL is approved in the future by EPA for any water body or watershed
into which it discharges. Under this condition, the municipality must
review the applicable TMDL to see if it includes requirements for
control of stormwater discharges. If a storm sewer system is not meeting
the TMDL stormwater allocations, the municipality must, within six
months of the TMDL's approval, modify its stormwater management
program to ensure that reduction of the pollutant of concern specified
in the TMDL is achieved.
A permit issued by the Department that authorizes the discharge
of pollutants to waters of the state.

waters are estuaries, lakes and streams that fall short of state surface
water quality standards and are not expected to improve within the
next two years.
Total maximum daily load.
The maximum amount of a pollutant to be allowed to be released
into a water body so as not to impair uses of the water allocated
among the sources of that pollutant.
Water that is not stormwater, is contaminated with pollutants
and is or will be discarded.
