SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
303(d) of the Clean Water Act (CWA)
requires that each state identify those
waters for which existing technologybased pollution controls are not
stringent enough to attain or maintain
state water quality standards. For those
waters, states are required to establish
Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs)
according to a priority ranking.
EPA’s Water Quality Planning and
Management regulations include
requirements related to the
implementation of Section 303(d) of the
CWA (40 CFR 130.7). The regulations
require states to identify water quality
limited waters still requiring TMDLs
every two years. The list of waters still
needing TMDLs must also include
priority rankings and must identify the
waters targeted for TMDL development
during the next two years (40 CFR
130.7).
Consistent with EPA’s regulations,
Louisiana submitted to EPA its 2012
listing decisions under Section 303(d)
on February 14, 2013. On May 1, 2013,
EPA approved Louisiana’s 2012 listing
of 323 water body-pollutant
combinations and associated priority
rankings, and proposed to disapprove
Louisiana’s decisions not to list three
waterbodies. On July 18, 2013, EPA
finalized the action to disapprove
Louisiana’s 2012 listing decisions not to
list three water quality limited
segments. EPA identified these
additional waters and pollutants along
with priority rankings for inclusion on
the 2012 Section 303(d) List.
Dated: July 18, 2013.

Description of Measurement Facilities
The Commission established uniform
technical standards for various nonlicensed equipment operating under the
guidelines established in 47 CFR parts
2, 15 and 18 of the FCC rules, which
include personal computers, garage door
openers, baby monitors, etc. In order to
ensure that technical standards are
applied uniformly to non-licensed
equipment, the Commission requires
manufacturers to follow the
standardized measurement procedures
and practices:
(a) 47 CFR part 2 of the Commission’s
rules requires each Electro-Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC) testing facility that
performs equipment testing in support
of any request for equipment
authorization to file a test site
description with the Commission. The
Commission also permits a testing
facility to be accredited by Commissionapproved accrediting bodies. A testing
laboratory that is accredited by a
Commission-approved accrediting body
is not required to file a test site
description with the Commission since
the accreditation body will review this
information as part of the accreditation
assessment.
(b) The test site description and the
supporting information documents that
the EMC testing facility complies with
the testing standards used to make the
measurements that support any request
for equipment authorization.
The Commission or a
Telecommunications certification body
uses the information from these test
sites and the supporting documentation,
which accompany all requests for
equipment authorization:

(a) To ensure that the data are valid
and that proper testing procedures are
used;
(b) To ensure that potential
interference to radio communications is
controlled; and
(c) To investigate complaints of
harmful interference or to verify the
manufacturer’s compliance with Section
47 CFR 2.948 of the Commission’s rules.
Accreditation Bodies
On September 14, 2009, the Office of
Engineering and Technology (OET)
identified and requested comment on
certain types of information that an
applicant should provide to be
considered as an accreditation body of
test laboratories under the
Commission’s rules, see DA 09–2049. 47
CFR 2.948(d) of the Commission’s rules
sets forth the requirements for
accreditation bodies seeking recognition
from the FCC as a laboratory
accreditation body. Accreditation bodies
seeking such recognition from the
Commission must file a report of their
qualifications with the Office of
Engineering and Technology (OET).
They are only required to file this
information once. The Commission
currently has three recognized
accreditations bodies.
Other Information
In addition, the referenced 47 CFR
part 15 rules (47 CFR 15.117(g)(2))
require that certain equipment
manufacturers file information
concerning the testing of TV receivers,
which tune to UHF channels, to show
that the UHF channels provide
approximately the same degree of
tuning accuracy with approximately the
same expenditure of time and effort.
