Managing surface water quality is a global challenge, and understanding spatial and temporal patterns of water quality is a key component to effective management. However, analysis of spatiotemporal patterns of impaired waters over broad areas is sparse due to disparate water quality data and variable water quality standards. Thus, here we leverage the Alabama 303(d) List of impaired waters to present a new perspective for investigating spatiotemporal water quality patterns.

Design: Semistructured qualitative interviews focused on domains of: experience through treatment, elements that work well and those that could be improved on. Interviews used thematic analysis to identify key themes.
Onsite wastewater treatment systems (OWTSs) are important nonpoint sources (NPSs) of pollution to consider in watershed management. However, limited OWTS data availability makes it challenging to account for them as an NPS of water pollution. In this study, we succeeded in obtaining OWTS permits and integrated them with environmental data to model the pollution potential from OWTSs at the watershed scale using GIS-based multicriteria decision analysis.
