Attainment Results 
2008 ASSESSMENT MARYLAND WATER CLARITY 
ATTAINMENT RESULTS 
Analyses were conducted for the 2004-2006 time period, with the exception of the 
Magothy and Severn Rivers where DATAFLOW data were evaluated for the 
2001-2003 period. 
• For Maryland, the following segments had no SAV goal, therefore the analysis 
was not applicable: BACOH, CHOTF, CHSTF, NANTF, POCOH, POCTF. 
• For Maryland, the following segments passed their SAV goal in at least one 
year between 2004 and 2006: CHSOH, BSHOH, BOHOH, CB20H, PAXTF, 
NORTF, SASOH, C&DOH, PAXOH, MATTF 
• For Maryland, the following segments failed their SAV goal for each year 
between 2004 and 2006 and had incomplete or no data to perform the water 
clarity acres assessment: TANMH, CB5MH, MANMH, POCMH, CB4MH, 
NANMH, NANOH, POTTF, PISTF, POTOH, CHOMH1, POTMH, LCHMH, 
CHOMH2, CHOOH, WICMH 
• For Maryland, the following segments passed using the water clarity acres 
assessment method: GUNOH, FSBMH, SEVMH, RHDMH 
• For Maryland, the following segments failed using the water clarity acres 
assessment method: MAGMH, CHSMH, EASMH, WSTMH, PAXMH, 
SOUMH 
• For Maryland, the following segment failed due to insufficient spatial coverage 
of DATAFLOW data during its three year assessment cycle: MIDOH 
DETAILED RESULTS FOR WATER CLARITY ASSESSMENT METHOD 
The Appendix contains detailed information regarding each segment where the water 
clarity assessment method was employed. Monthly pass/fail clarity maps addition to 
the annual averages in relation to the SAV goals. Below are short narratives
