General Support and Infrastructure Planning Clause Samples

General Support and Infrastructure Planning. The state identifies current and future resource needs it requires to fully implement its monitoring program strategy. This needs assessment should describe funding, staff, training, laboratory resources and upcoming improvements. EPA encourages states to prepare a single report (the Integrated Report) that satisfies the reporting requirements of sections 303(d), 305(b), and 314, and describes the state’s assessment methodol- ogy for making water quality attainment determinations (see EPA’s Integrated Reporting Guidance at ▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇). As part of EPA’s guidance to states for preparing Integrated Reports, EPA recommends that states use the following five reporting categories to report on the water quality status of all waters in their state: Category 1: All designated uses (DU) are supported, no use is threatened Category 2: Available data and/or information indicate that some, but not all the DUs are supported
