IMPAIRED WATERS LISTING
Table 9 presents the list of water body segments identified as impaired during the current 2026 reporting cycle. These segments were assessed
using water quality, biological, and monitoring data in accordance with Mississippi’s Consolidated Assessment and Listing Methodology
(CALM). Waters included in Table 9 are those determined to be not attaining their designated use(s), and, therefore, remain on the Section
303(d) List of Impaired Waters, requiring the development of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL).
