  • Rule 391-3-6-.03. Water Use Classifications and Water Quality Standards
    Presented below are water quality standards that are in effect for Clean Water Act purposes. EPA is posting these standards as a convenience to users and has made a reasonable effort to assure their accuracy. Additionally, EPA has made a reasonable effort to identify parts of the standards that are not approved, disapproved, or are otherwise not in effect for Clean Water Act purposes. Rule 391-3-6-.03. Water Use Classifications and Water Quality Standards ( 1) Purpose. The establishment of water quality standards. (2) W ate r Quality Enhancement: (a) The purposes and intent of the State in establishing Water Quality Standards are to provide enhancement of water quality and prevention of pollution; to protect the public health or welfare in accordance with the public interest for drinking water supplies, conservation of fish, wildlife and other beneficial aquatic life, and agricultural, industrial, recreational, and other reasonable and necessary uses and to maintain and improve the biological integrity of the waters of the State. ( b) The following paragraphs describe the three tiers of the State's waters. (i) Tier 1 - Existing instream water uses and the level of water quality necessary to protect the existing uses shall be maintained and protected. (ii) Tier 2 - Where the quality of the waters exceed levels necessary to support propagation of fish, shellfish, and wildlife and recreation in and on the water, that quality shall be maintained and protected unless the division finds, after full satisfaction of the intergovernmental coordination and public participation provisions of the division's continuing planning process, that allowing lower water quality is necessary to accommodate important economic or social development in the area in which the waters are located.

  • TMDL Implementation Plans for Goat Rock Lake
    TMDL Implementation Plan for Nottely River, Downstream of Lake Nottely -- Dissolved Oxygen Introduction The portion of the Nottely River downstream of the dam for Nottely Lake, is located near Ivy Log in Union County, a few miles northwest of Blairsville, Georgia. The Nottely Lake dam is operated by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). Reservoir water flows through the turbine generators in the dam to produce hydroelectric power. The water that for such use is taken from the lower (hypolimnion) zone of the Reservoir where the water is naturally lower in dissolved oxygen (D.O.). Plan for Implementation of the TMDL The TMDL for this and seven other low D.O. river segments below dams, was finalized in November, 2000. The designated use for the Nottely River downstream of the dam is for recreation. The applicable water quality standards there for D.O. are a concentration of 5 milligrams per liter (mg/l) as a daily average and a concentration of 4 mg/l as a minimum value. Attainment and maintenance of these two D.O. water quality standards are the goals of this Implementation Plan. The TMDL recommends that the appropriate federal and state agencies work together in developing an implementation strategy to provide higher oxygenated water from these dam releases. The TMDL adds that these strategies may include oxygenation or aeration of the water, redesigned spillways, or other measures, and that ongoing water quality monitoring is needed to monitor progress. The TVA has added compressors and blowers to add air to the water going through the turbines, when D.O.

  • Hiwassee Geographic Area Updated: June 1, 2017
    Hiwassee Geographic Area June 1, 2017 **Disclaimer: The specific descriptions, goals, desired conditions, and objectives only apply to the National Forest System Lands within the Hiwassee Geographic Area. However, nearby communities and surrounding lands are considered and used as context. Hiwassee Geographic Area Updated: June 1, 2017 Description of area The Hiwassee Geographic Area is defined by large rivers running through broad flat valleys and two large lakes surrounded by mountains that provide distinct visitor experiences. The broad river valleys lie at lower elevations than other geographic areas in North Carolina’s National Forests. The steep mountains of this area support short leaf pine, mixed hardwood forests, and large pockets of eastern hemlock. Passing through a gentler mountain landscape, the major rivers of the region include the Hiwassee, Valley, and Nottley Rivers which flow into the Chatuge, Hiwassee, and Apalachia lakes. These rivers and the lakes created by Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) dams provide reactional opportunities for fishing, boating, and other water sports. The lakes of this geographic area form a chain that is home to a diverse number of plant, animal, and warm water fish species that are native to riparian floodplain ecosystems. Prior to European and Anglo-American settlement along with westward expansion, the Hiwassee geographic area was home to the Cherokee and Creek tribes. This area contains several landscape features that figure most prominently in Tribal history and have significant meaning to Tribal identities and beliefs. These locations are important traditional and ceremonial areas for the Cherokee. Communities within this geographic area include Murphy, Hayesville, Warne, Peachtree, Brasstown, Hiwassee Dam, Ranger and the smaller incorporated areas of Unaka and Violet.
