Regulation 61-69 classified waters

Abstract

All adopted classifications must conform to the standards and rules contained within R.61-68, Water Classifications and Standards, or site-specific standards listed within this regulation. Unless noted, site-specific standards apply only to the water named and not to tributary or downstream waters. Where surface waters are not classified by name (unlisted) in this regulation, the use classification and numeric standards of the class of the stream to which they are tributary apply, disregarding any site-specific numeric standards for the named waterbody. In tidal areas, where an unlisted tributary may affect or flows between two differently classified waterbodies, regardless of whether the location is upstream or downstream, the more stringent numeric standards of the classified waters apply to the unlisted tributary, disregarding any site-specific numeric standards for those waterbodies.
