<br />for each of the five lOud modules.

<br />
<br />1. Strategic Guidance-.
<br />
<br />The first o~jective of this mod~le is to complete
<br />303 plans for all r~versegments no later than December 31
<br />1974. For segments on which water quality standards would'
<br />be met after the application of best practicable technology
<br />an~ secondary treatment, these plans would '
<br />
<br />display monitoring data which certifies the
<br />segment's category.
<br />
<br />provide a management schedule for issuing
<br />permits, grants, and other actions for each
<br />discharger.

<br />For segments in which industry would have to go beyond, best
<br />practicable technology and municipal plants would have to go
<br />beyond secondary treatment, these plans would also include a
<br />target load reduction under which water quality standards
<br />would be met.

<br />
<br />
<br />A fifth o~jective is to create a reporting process which,'
<br />enables EPA to measure in specific quantitative terms progress
<br />towards the objectives set out both in legislation and in State
<br />plans. 'In addition toSt.at'e resource and output reports, the ,
<br />National Water Quality Surveillance System will collect ambient '.:. :
