Abstract
Section 518 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) authorized EPA to treat Indian Tribes as States for the purposes of sections 303 and 401. This guidance provides procedures for determining Tribal eligibility and supplements the final rule Amendments to the Water Quality Standards Regulation That Pertain to Standards on Indian Reservations, published in the Federal Register on December 12, 1991. To develop and administer a water quality standards program and 401 certification program, an Indian Tribe must submit an application for eligibility to be 'treated as a State'. The attached checklist provides a simplified list of actions required for EPA to determine this eligibility.
