Abstract
Consistent with EPA guidance, meaningful and well timed public involvement is the cornerstone of a successful watershed management process and should result in better supported, more cost effective and expeditiously implemented total maximum daily loads (TMDLs). A stakeholder and decision support process has been implemented on the Truckee River in order to develop a revised TMDL to identify potential load reduction scenarios and to develop a pollutant load trading program. This paper discusses the development of the decision support process and system, including implementation of stakeholder participation and governance issues.
