SURFACE WATER QUALITY STANDARDS

Overview

RULE:

PURPOSE:

The proposed rule amendments revise the human health-based surface water quality criteria to account for updated fish consumption rates among Floridians.  Criteria were derived using a probabilistic model.

SUMMARY:

The Department proposes to amend Rule 62-302.530, F.A.C., to revise the surface water quality criteria that are human health-based.  These revised criteria are proposed to reflect more recent fish consumption data and were derived using a probabilistic model.
