  • 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.

    2009. Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science 1 1 8(2): 143—1 86 THE "LOST" JORDAN AND HAY FISH COLLECTION AT BUTLER UNIVERSITY Carter R. Gilbert: Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32611 USA ABSTRACT. A large fish collection, preserved in ethanol and assembled by Drs. David S. Jordan and Oliver P. Hay between 1875 and 1892, had been stored for over a century in the biology building at Butler University. The collection was of historical importance since it contained some of the earliest fish material ever recorded from the states of South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi and Kansas, and also included types of many new species collected during the course of this work. In addition to material collected by Jordan and Hay, the collection also included specimens received by Butler University during the early 1880s from the Smithsonian Institution, in exchange for material (including many types) sent to that institution. Many ichthyologists had assumed that Jordan, upon his departure from Butler in 1879. had taken the collection. essentially intact, to Indiana University, where soon thereafter (in July 1883) it was destroyed by fire. The present study confirms that most of the collection was probably transferred to Indiana, but that significant parts of it remained at Butler. The most important results of this study are: a) analysis of the size and content of the existing Butler fish collection; b) discovery of four specimens of Micropterus coosae in the Saluda River collection, since the species had long been thought to have been introduced into that river; and c) the conclusion that none of Jordan's 1878 southeastern collections apparently remain and were probably taken intact to Indiana University, where they were lost in the 1883 fire.

  • Paddle Georgia 2014 Fall Float on the Flint Oct
    Albany Allemande– Paddle Georgia 2014 Fall Float on the Flint Oct. 10—Flint River Distance: 14 miles Starting Elevation: 190 feet Lat: 31.6022°N Lon: 84.1381°W Ending Elevation: 151 feet Lat: 31.4388°N Lon: 84.1423°W Restroom Facilities: Mile 0 Flint River Hydro Dam Mile 4.7 Radium Springs Boat Ramp Mile 14 Mitchell County Landing Points of Interest: Mile 0.2—Muckafoonee Creek—A short distance up this creek on river right is the 1906 dam that created “Lake Worth.” Today, the dam serves as an overflow spillway for the larger dam on the Flint. This oddly named waterway is a combination of two even more oddly named creeks: Kinchafoonee and Muckalee creeks. The Creek Indian word Kinchafoonee is believed to have meant “Mortar Nutshells” while Muckalee, recorded the Indian Agent Benjamin Hawkins, meant “Pour on me.” While this is the site of one of the first hydro-power dams in South Georgia, the Georgia General Assembly had earlier established laws specifically protecting Kinchafoonee Creek from obstructions that would prevent fish passage. The 1876 law prohibited the construction of any “dam, trap, net, seine or other device for catching fish, unless the channel is left for six feet.” There was, of course, a major loophole in the law: “nothing herein contained shall be so construed to prevent the erection of dams for milling and manufacturing purposes,” and thus a dam came to be built on Kinchafoonee. These lyrical names still echo through the region’s culture. The Kinchafoonee Cowboys is a well-known hony-tonk band from the area and Leesburg’s Luke Bryan, included an ode to fishing, boating, four-wheeling and drinking called “Muckalee Creek Water” on his 2011 album Tailgates and Tanlines.
