RE: DOE Water Quality Standards for Surface Waters
Thank you Michelle
Since Pleasant Harbor Resort is purported to being held to standards through our 30 pre-conditions; the questions of
process and accountability relating to monitoring requirements must reflect the base-line of the monitored water before
construction; identifying the parties including septic fields that contribute to monitored water conditions; and the
collaborative management of the program.
Obviously, it would be ridiculous and illegal to ask Statesman to be solely responsible for existing conditions and
pollution conditions that were not accountable to our development.
This is why it is important to have a solution that is sustainable that involves a number of parties including Washington
State Fish & Wildlife as participants.

HiGarth
The draft water quality monitoring plan was forwarded to DOE and PGST for review. Comments are due on May
1. Once I get comments from DOE and PGST, l'll forward them to you and your team for review.
ln the DOE Water Quality Standards document I sent you, look at pages 17-21. This is what the county (per Michael
Dawson, county water quality) goes by.
Your comment "A base-line of existing conditions needs to be recorded by DOE"; I will have to do further research on
and get back to you.

Michelle
Without reading all1.42 Pages, the plan that was discussed at our January conference with PGST is a collaborative
monitoring program that includes all the parties that have access to the Hood Canal.
Obviously for this program to be effective the TEAM approach involves all parties in order that we form a planned
course of action for monitoring and restitution if required.
A base-line of existing conditions needs to be recorded by DOE.
Obviously it would be extremely unreasonable to saddle a single party or a group to clean-up waters that have had
previous issues of pollution.
Please investigate the aforementioned with David and DOE for their involvement.
Thank you
Garth

Hi Garth
l'm following up on your voice message of yesterday regarding the parameters for baseline water quality monitoring. I
checked with our Jefferson County Public Health water quality department and was told the county goes by the DOE
standards of which I have attached.
I have also attached for you a copy of the most recent (3l15lt7l Port Ludlow MPR monitoring report as an example
I hope this answers your question, if not please let me know

Part I lntroduction
173-2014-010
Purpose.
(1) The purpose of this chapter is to establish water quality standards for surface waters of the
state of Washington consistent with public health and public enjoyment of the waters and the
propagation and protection of fish, shellfish, and wildlife, pursuant to the provisions of chapter
90.48 RCW. All actions must comply with this chapter. As part of this chapter:
(a) All surface waters are protected by numeric and narrative criteria, designated uses,
and an antidegradation policy.
(b) Based on the use designations, numeric and narrative criteria are assigned to a
water body to protect the existing and designated uses.
(c) Where multiple criteria for the same water quality parameter are assigned to a water
body to protect different uses, the most stringent criteria for each parameter is to be
applied.
(2) Surface waters of the state include lakes, rivers, ponds, streams, inland waters, saltwaters,
wetlands, and all other surface waters and water courses within the jurisdiction of the state of
Washington.
(3) This chapter will be reviewed periodically by the department and appropriate revisions will
be undertaken.
(4) WAC 173-201A-200 through 173-2014-260 and 173-2014-600 through 173-201A-612
describe the designated water uses and criteria for the state of Washington. These criteria were
established based on existing and potential water uses of the surface waters of the state.
Consideration was also given to both the naturalwater quality potential and its limitations.
Compliance with the surface water quality standards of the state of Washington requires
compliance with chapter 173-2014 WAC, Water quality standards for surface waters of the state
of Washington, chapter 173-204 WAC, Sediment management standards, and applicable
federal rules.

Definitions.
The following definitions are intended to facilitate the use of chapter 173-201A WAC:
"1-DMax" or "1-day maximum temperature" is the highest water temperature reached on any
given day. This measure can be obtained using calibrated maximum/minimum thermometers or
continuous monitoring probes having sampling intervals of thirty minutes or less.
"7-DADMax" or "7-day average of the daily maximum temperatures" is the arithmetic
average of seven consecutive measures of daily maximum temperatures. The 7-DADMax for
any individual day is calculated by averaging that day's daily maximum temperature with the
daily maximum temperatures of the three days prior and the three days after that date.
"Action value" means a total phosphorus (TP) value established at the upper limit of the
trophic states in each ecoregion (see Table 230(1)). Exceedance of an action value indicates
that a problem is suspected. A lake-specific study may be needed to confirm if a nutrient
problem exists.
"Actions" refers broadly to any human projects or activities.
"Acute conditions" are changes in the physical, chemical, or biologic environment which are
expected or demonstrated to result in injury or death to an organism as a result of short-term
exposure to the substance or detrimental environmental condition.
"AKART" is an acronym for "all known, available, and reasonable methods of prevention,
control, and treatment." AKART shall represent the most current methodology that can be
reasonably required for preventing, controlling, or abating the pollutants associated with a
discharge. The concept of AKART applies to both point and nonpoint sources of pollution. The
term "best management practices," typically applied to nonpoint source pollution controls is
considered a subset of the AKART requirement.
"Background" means the biological, chemical, and physical conditions of a water body, outside
the area of influence of the discharge under consideration. Background sampling locations in
an enforcement action would be up-gradient or outside the area of influence of the discharge. lf
several discharges to any water body exist, and enforcement action is being taken for possible
violations to the standards, background sampling would be undertaken immediately up-gradient
from each discharge.
"Best management practices (BMP)" means physical, structural, and/or managerial practices
approved by the department that, when used singularly or in combination, prevent or reduce
pollutant discharges.
"Biological assessment" is an evaluation of the biological condition of a water body using
surveys of aquatic community structure and function and other direct measurements of resident
biota in surface waters.
"Bog" means those wetlands that are acidic, peat forming, and whose primary water source is
precipitation, with little, if any, outflow.
Page 3
"Carcinogen" means any substance or agent that produces or tends to produce cancer in
humans. For implementation of this chapter, the term carcinogen will apply to substances on
the United States Environmental Protection Agency lists of A (known human) and B (probable
human) carcinogens, and any substance which causes a significant increased incidence of
benign or malignant tumors in a single, well conducted animal bioassay, consistent with the
weight of evidence approach specified in the United States Environmental Protection Agency's
Guidelines for Carcinogenic Risk Assessment as set forth in 51 FR 33992 et seq. as presently
published or as subsequently amended or republished.
"Chronic conditions" are changes in the physical, chemical, or biologic environment which are
expected or demonstrated to result in injury or death to an organism as a result of repeated or
constant exposure over an extended period of time to a substance or detrimental environmental
condition.
"Combined sewer overflow (CSO) treatment plant" is a facility that provides at-site treatment
as provided for in chapter 173-245 WAC. A CSO treatment plant is a specific facility identified
in a department-approved CSO reduction plan (longterm control plan) that is designed,
operated and controlled by a municipal utility to capture and treat excess combined sanitary
sewage and stormwater from a combined sewer system.
"Compliance schedule" or "schedule of compliance" is a schedule of remedial measures
included in a permit or an order, including an enforceable sequence of interim requirements (for
example, actions, operations, or milestone events) leading to compliance with an effluent limit,
other prohibition, or standard.
"Created wetlands" means those wetlands intentionally created from nonwetland sites to
produce or replace naturalwetland habitat.
"Critical condition" is when the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of the
receiving water environment interact with the effluent to produce the greatest potential adverse
impact on aquatic biota and existing or designated water uses. For steady-state discharges to
riverine systems the critical condition may be assumed to be equal to the 7Q10 flow event
unless determined otherwise by the department.
"Damage to the ecosystem" means any demonstrated or predicted stress to aquatic or
terrestrial organisms or communities of organisms which the department reasonably concludes
may interfere in the health or survival success or natural structure of such populations. This
stress may be due to, but is not limited to, alteration in habitat or changes in water temperature,
chemistry, or turbidity, and shall consider the potential build up of discharge constituents or
temporal increases in habitat alteration which may create such stress in the long term.
"Department" means the state of Washington department of ecology.
"Designated uses" are those uses specified in this chapter for each water body or segment,
regardless of whether or not the uses are currently attained.
"Director" means the director of the state of Washington department of ecology.
"Drainage ditch" means that portion of a designed and constructed conveyance system that
serves the purpose of transporting surplus water; this may include natural water courses or
channels incorporated in the system design, but does not include the area adjacent to the water
course or channel.
Page 4
"Ecoregions" are defined using EPAs Ecoregions of the Paciftc Northwest Document No
600/3-86/033 July 1986 by Omernik and Gallant.
"Enterococci" refers to a subgroup of fecal streptococcithat includes S. faecalis, S. faecium,

results in the dilution of the effluent with the receiving water. Water quali$ criteria may be
exceeded in a mixing zone as conditioned and provided for in WAC 173-2014-400.
"Natural conditions" or "natural background levels" means surface water quality that was
present before any human-caused pollution. When estimating natural conditions in the
headwaters of a disturbed watershed it may be necessary to use the less disturbed conditions
of a neighboring or similar watershed as a reference condition. (See also WAC 173-201A-
260(1).)
"New or expanded actions" mean human actions that occur or are regulated for the first time,
or human actions expanded such that they result in an increase in pollution, after July 1, 2003,
for the purpose of applying this chapter only.
"Nonpoint source" means pollution that enters any waters of the state from any dispersed
land-based or water-based activities including, but not limited to, atmospheric deposition;
surface water runoff from agricultural lands, urban areas, or forest lands; subsurface or
underground sources; or discharges from boats or marine vessels not otherwise regulated
under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System program.
"Permit" means a document issued pursuant to chapter 90.48 RCW specifying the waste
treatment and control requirements and waste discharge conditions.
"pH" means the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration.
"Pollution" means such contamination, or other alteration of the physical, chemical, or
biological properties, of any waters of the state, including change in temperature, taste, color,
turbidity, or odor of the waters, or such discharge of any liquid, gaseous, solid, radioactive, or
other substance into any waters of the state as will or is likely to create a nuisance or render
such waters harmful, detrimental, or injurious to the public health, safety, or welfare, or to
domestic, commercial, industrial, agricultural, recreational, or other legitimate beneficial uses, or
to livestock, wild animals, birds, fish, or other aquatic life.
"Primary contact recreation" means activities where a person would have direct contact with
water to the point of complete submergence including, but not limited to, skin diving, swimming,
and water skiing.
"Secondary contact recreation" means activities where a person's water contact would be

digestive systems, or urogenital areas would normally be avoided.
Page 6
"Shoreline stabilization" means the anchoring of soil at the water's edge, or in shallow water,
by fibrous plant root complexes; this may include long-term accretion of sediment or peat, along
with shoreline progradation in such areas.
"Stormwater" means that portion of precipitation that does not naturally percolate into the
ground or evaporate, but flows via overland flow, interflow, pipes, and other features of a
stormwater drainage system into a defined surface water body, or a constructed infiltration
facility.
"Stormwater attenuation" means the process by which peak flows from precipitation are
reduced and runoff velocities are slowed as a result of passing through a surface water body
"Surface waters of the state" includes lakes, rivers, ponds, streams, inland waters, saltwaters,
wetlands and all other surface waters and water courses within the jurisdiction of the state of
Washington.
"Temperature" means water temperature expressed in degrees Celsius ('C).
"Treatment wetlands" means those wetlands intentionally constructed on nonwetland sites
and managed for the primary purpose of wastewater or stormwater treatment. Treatment
wetlands are considered part of a collection and treatment system, and generally are not subject
to the criteria of this chapter.
"Trophic state" means a classification of the productivity of a lake ecosystem. Lake
productivity depends on the amount of biologically available nutrients in water and sediments
and may be based on total phosphorus (TP). Secchidepth and chlorophyll-a measurements
may be used to improve the trophic state classification of a lake. Trophic states used in this rule
include, from least to most nutrient rich, ultra-oligotrophic, oligotrophic, lower mesotrophic,
upper mesotrophic, and eutrophic.
"Turbidity" means the clarity of water expressed as nephelometric turbidity units (NTU) and
measured with a calibrated turbidimeter.
"Upwelling" means the natural process along Washington's Pacific Coast where the summer
prevailing northerly winds produce a seaward transport of surface water. Cold, deeper more
saline waters rich in nutrients and low in dissolved oxygen, rise to replace the surface water.
The cold oxygen deficient water enters Puget Sound and other coastal estuaries at depth where
it displaces the existing deep water and eventually rises to replace the surface water. Such
surface water replacement results in an overall increase in salinity and nutrients accompanied
by a depression in dissolved oxygen. Localized upwelling of the deeper water of Puget Sound
can occur year-round under influence of tidal currents, winds, and geomorphic features.
"USEPA" means the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
"Variance" is a time-limited designated use and criterion as defined in 40 C.F.R. 131.3, and
must be adopted by rule.
"Wetlands" means areas that are inundated or saturated by surface water or ground water at a
frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a
prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands
generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas. Wetlands do not include those
artificialwetlands intentionally created from nonwetland sites including, but not limited to,
Page 7
irrigation and drainage ditches, grass-lined swales, canals, detention facilities, wastewater
treatment facilities, farm ponds, and landscape amenities, or those wetlands created after July
1 , 1990, that were unintentionally created as a result of the construction of a road, street, or
highway. Wetlands may include those artificialwetlands intentionally created from nonwetland
areas to mitigate the conversion of wetlands. (Water bodies not included in the definition of
wetlands as well as those mentioned in the definition are still waters of the state.)
"Wildlife habitat" means waters of the state used by, or that directly or indirectly provide food
support to, flsh, other aquatic life, and wildlife for any life history stage or activity.

Part ll - Designated Uses and Criteria
173-201A.-200
Fresh water designated uses and criteria.
The following uses are designated for protection in fresh surface waters of the state. Use
designations forwater bodies are listed in WAC 173-201A-600 and 173-2014-602.
(1) Aquatic life uses. Aquatic life uses are designated based on the presence of, or the intent
to provide protection for, the key uses identified in (a) of this subsection. lt is required that all
indigenous fish and nonfish aquatic species be protected in waters of the state in addition to the
key species described below.
(a) The categories for aquatic life uses are:
(i) Char spawning and rearing. The key identifying characteristics of this use
are spawning or early juvenile rearing by native char (bull trout and Dolly
Varden), or use by other aquatic species similarly dependent on such cold water
Other common characteristic aquatic life uses for waters in this category include
summer foraging and migration of native char; and spawning, rearing, and
migration by other salmonid species.
(ii) Core summer salmonid habitat. The key identifying characteristics of this
use are summer (June 15 - September 15) salmonid spawning or emergence, or
adult holding; use as important summer rearing habitat by one or more
salmonids; or foraging by adult and subadult native char. Other common
characteristic aquatic life uses for waters in this category include spawning
outside of the summer season, rearing, and migration by salmonids.
(iii) Salmonid spawning, rearing, and migration. The key identifying
characteristic of this use is salmon or trout spawning and emergence that only
occurs outside of the summer season (September 16 - June 14). Other common
characteristic aquatic life uses for waters in this category include rearing and
migration by salmonids.
(iv) Salmonid rearing and migration only. The key identifying characteristic of
this use is use only for rearing or migration by salmonids (not used for spawning).
(v) Non-anadromous interior redband trout. For the protection of waters
where the only trout species is a non-anadromous form of self-reproducing
interior redband trout (O. mykis), and other associated aquatic life.
(vi) lndigenous warm water species. For the protection of waters where the
dominant species under natural conditions would be temperature tolerant
indigenous nonsalmonid species. Examples include dace, redside shiner,
chiselmouth, sucker, and northern pikeminnow.
(b) General criteria. General criteria that apply to all aquatic life fresh water uses are
described in WAC 173-2014-260 (2)(a) and (b), and are for:
Page 9
(i) Toxic, radioactive, and deleterious materials; and
(ii) Aesthetic values.
(c) Aquatic life temperature criteria. Except where noted, water temperature is
measured by the 7-day average of the daily maximum temperatures (7-DADMax). Table
200 (1)(c) lists the temperature criteria for each of the aquatic life use categories.
Table 200 (1)(c)
uatic Life T re Criteria in Fresh Water
*Note: Some streams have a more stringent temperature criterion that is
applied seasonally to further protect salmonid spawning and egg
incubation. See (cXBXiv) of this subsection.
(i) When a water body's temperature is warmer than the criteria in Table 200
(1)(c) (or within 0.3'C (0.54"F) of the criteria) and that condition is due to natural
conditions, then human actions considered cumulatively may not cause the 7-
DADMax temperature of that water body to increase more than 0.3'C (0.54'F).
(ii) \Men the background condition of the water is cooler than the criteria in
Table 200 (1)(c), the allowable rate of warming up to, but not exceeding, the
numeric criteria from human actions is restricted as follows:
(A) lncremental temperature increases resulting from individual point
source activities must not, at any time, exceed 281(T+7) as measured at
the edge of a mixing zone boundary (where "T" represents the
background temperature as measured at a point or points unaffected by
the discharge and representative of the highest ambient water
temperature in the vicinity of the discharge); and
(B) lncremental temperature increases resulting from the combined effect
of all nonpoint source activities in the water body must not, at any time,
exceed 2.8"C (5.04'F).
(iii) Temperatures are not to exceed the criteria at a probability frequency of
more than once every ten years on average.
(iv) Spawning and incubation protection. The department has identified
waterbodies, or portions thereof, which require special protection for spawning
and incubation in ecology publication 06-10-038 revised January 2011(also
available on ecology's web site at www.ecy.wa.gov). This publication indicates
where and when the following criteria are to be applied to protect the
Category Highest 7-DADMax
Char Spawning and Rearing*12'C (53.6"F)
Core Summer Salmonid Habitat*16'C (60.8"F)
17.5'CReariandn*id
Salmonid Rearing and Migration Only 17.5"C (63.5"F)
Non-anadromous lnterior Redband Trout 18"C (64.4"F)
lndigenous Warm Water Species 20'c (68"F)
Page 10
reproduction of native char, salmon, and trout:
. Maximum 7-DADMax temperatures of 9"C (48.2"F) at the initiation of
spawning and at fry emergence for char; and
. Maximum 7-DADMax temperatures of 13"C (55.4"F) at the initiation of
spawning for salmon and at fry emergence for salmon and trout.
The two criteria above are protective of incubation as long as human
actions do not significantly disrupt the normal patterns of fall cooling and
spring warming that provide significantly colder temperatures over the
majority of the incubation period.
(v) For lakes, human actions considered cumulatively may not increase the
7-DADMax temperature more than 0.3"C (0.54'F) above natural conditions.
(vi) Temperature measurements should be taken to represent the dominant
aquatic habitat of the monitoring site. This typically means samples should:
(A) Be taken from well mixed portions of rivers and streams; and
(B) Not be taken from shallow stagnant backwater areas, within isolated
thermal refuges, at the surface, or at the water's edge.
(vii) The department will incorporate the following guidelines on preventing acute
lethality and barriers to migration of salmonids into determinations of compliance
with the narrative requirements for use protection established in this chapter
(e g , WAC 173-2014-310(1), 173-2014-400(4), and 173-201A-410 (1Xc)). The
following site-level considerations do not, however, override the temperature
criteria established for waters in subsection (1)(c) of this section or WAC 173-
201 A-600 through 17 3-201 A-602:
(A) Moderately acclimated (16-20'C, or 60.8-68'F) adult and juvenile
salmonids willgenerally be protected from acute lethality by discrete
human actions maintaining the 7-DADMax temperature at or below 22"C
(71.6'F) and the 1-day maximum (1-DMax) temperature at or below 23'C
(73.4"F).
(B) Lethality to developing fish embryos can be expected to occur at a 1-
DMax temperature greater than 17.5"C (63.5'F).
(C) To protect aquatic organisms, discharge plume temperatures must
be maintained such that fish could not be entrained (based on plume time
of travel) for more than two seconds at temperatures above 33'C (91.4"F)
to avoid creating areas that will cause near instantaneous lethality.
(D) Barriers to adult salmonid migration are assumed to exist any time
the 1-DMax temperature is greater than 22"C (71.6'F) and the adjacent
downstream water temperatures are 3'C (5.4"F) or more cooler.
(viii) Nothing in this chapter shall be interpreted to prohibit the establishment of
effluent limitations for the control of the thermal component of any discharge in
Page 11
accordance with 33 U.S.C. 1326 (commonly known as section 316 of the Clean
WaterAct).
(d) Aquatic life dissolved oxygen (D.O.) criteria. The D.O. criteria are measured in
milligrams per liter (mg/L). Table 200 (1Xd) lists the 1-day minimum D.O. for each of the
aquatic life use categories.
Table 200 (1)(d)
Life Dissolved Criteria in Fresh Water
(i) When a water body's D.O. is lower than the criteria in Table 200 (1)(d) (or
within 0.2 mg/L of the criteria) and that condition is due to natural conditions, then
human actions considered cumulatively may not cause the D.O. of that water
body to decrease more than 0.2 mg/L.
(ii) For lakes, human actions considered cumulatively may not decrease the
dissolved oxygen concentration more than 0.2 mg/L below natural conditions.
(iii) Concentrations of D.O. are not to fall below the criteria in the table at a
probability frequency of more than once every ten years on average.
(iv) D.O. measurements should be taken to represent the dominant aquatic
habitat of the monitoring site. This typically means samples should:
(A) Be taken from well mixed portions of rivers and streams; and
(B) Not be taken from shallow stagnant backwater areas, within isolated
thermal refuges, at the surface, or at the water's edge.
(e) Aquatic life turbidity criteria. Turbidity is measured in "nephelometric turbidity
units" or "NTUs." Table 200 (1)(e) lists the maximum turbidity criteria for each of the
aquatic life use categories.

Table 200 (1)(e)
Life Turbid Criteria in Fresh Water
(i) The turbidity criteria established under WAC 173-201A-200 (1)(e) shall be
modified, without specific written authorization from the department, to allow a
temporary area of mixing during and immediately after necessary in-water
construction activities that result in the disturbance of in-place sediments. This
temporary area of mixing is subject to the constraints of WAC 173-201A-400 (4)
and (6) and can occur only after the activity has received all other necessary
local and state permits and approvals, and after the implementation of
appropriate best management practices to avoid or minimize disturbance of in-
place sediments and exceedances of the turbidity criteria. A temporary area of
mixing shall be as follows:
(A) For waters up to 10 cfs flow at the time of construction, the point of
compliance shall be one hundred feet downstream from the activity
causing the turbidity exceedance.
(B) For waters above 10 cfs up to 100 cfs flow at the time of construction,
the point of compliance shall be two hundred feet downstream of the
activity causing the turbidity exceedance.
Page 13
(C) For waters above 100 cfs flow at the time of construction, the point of
compliance shall be three hundred feet downstream of the activity
causing the turbidity exceedance.
(D) For projects working within or along lakes, ponds, wetlands, or other
nonflowing waters, the point of compliance shall be at a radius of one
hundred fifty feet from the activity causing the turbidity exceedance.
(f) Aquatic life total dissolved gas (TDG) criteria. TDG is measured in percent
saturation. Table 200 (1)(0 lists the maximum TDG criteria for each of the aquatic life
use categories.
Table 200 (1Xf)
Life Total Dissolved Gas Criteria in Fresh Water
(i) The water quality criteria established in this chapter for TDG shall not apply
when the stream flow exceeds the seven-day, ten-year frequency flood.
(ii) The TDG criteria may be adjusted to aid fish passage over hydroelectric
dams when consistent with a department approved gas abatement plan. This
plan must be accompanied by fisheries management and physical and biological
monitoring plans. The elevated TDG levels are intended to allow increased fish
passage without causing more harm to fish populations than caused by turbine
fish passage. The following special fish passage exemptions for the Snake and
Columbia rivers apply when spilling water at dams is necessary to aid fish
passage:
. TDG must not exceed an average of one hundred fifteen percent as
measured in the forebays of the next downstream dams and must not
exceed an average of one hundred twenty percent as measured in the
tailraces of each dam (these averages are measured as an average of
the twelve highest consecutive hourly readings in any one day, relative to
atmospheric pressure); and
. A maximum TDG one hour average of one hundred twenty-five percent
must not be exceeded during spillage for fish passage.
(g) Aquatic life pH criteria. Measurement of pH is expressed as the negative
logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration. Table 200 (1Xg) lists the pH levels for each
of the aquatic life use categories.
Category Percent Saturation
Char Spawning and Rearing Total dissolved gas shall not exceed 1 10
percent of saturation at any point of
sample collection.

Fecal coliform organism levels must not exceed a geometric
mean value of 50 colonies/100 mL, with not more than 10
percent of all samples (or any single sample when less than
ten sample points exist) obtained for calculating the
geometric mean value exceeding 100 colonies/100 mL.
Primary Contact Recreation Fecal coliform organism levels must not exceed a geometric
mean value of 100 colonies /100 mL, with not more than 10
percent of all samples (or any single sample when less than

noncompliance periods. The period of averaging should not exceed twelve
months, and should have sample collection dates well distributed throughout the
reporting period.
(ii) When determining compliance with the bacteria criteria in or around small
sensitive areas, such as swimming beaches, it is recommended that multiple
samples are taken throughout the area during each visit. Such multiple samples
should be arithmetically averaged together (to reduce concerns with low bias
when the data is later used in calculating a geometric mean) to reduce sample
variability and to create a single representative data point.
(iii) As determined necessary by the department, more stringent bacteria criteria
may be established for rivers and streams that cause, or significantly contribute
to, the decertification or conditional certification of commercial or recreational
shellfish harvest areas, even when the preassigned bacteria criteria for the river
or stream are being met.
(iv) V/here information suggests that sample results are due primarily to sources
other than warm-blooded animals (e.9., wood waste), alternative indicator criteria
may be established on a site-specific basis by the department.
(3) Water supply uses. The water supply uses are domestic, agricultural, industrial, and stock
watering.
Genera! criteria. General criteria that apply to the water supply uses are described in WAC
173-2014-260 (2)(a) and (b), and are for:

clam, oyster, and mussel rearing and spawning; crustaceans and other shellfish
(crabs, shrimp, crayfish, scallops, etc.) rearing and spawning.
(iii) Good quality salmonid migration and rearing; other fish migration, rearing,
and spawning; clam, oyster, and mussel rearing and spawning; crustaceans and
other shellfish (crabs, shrimp, crayfish, scallops, etc.) rearing and spawning.
(iv) Fair quality salmonid and other fish migration
(b) General criteria. General criteria that apply to aquatic life marine water uses are
described in WAC 173-201A-260 (2)(a) and (b), and are for:
(i) Toxic, radioactive, and deleterious materials; and
(ii) A esthetic values
(c) Aquatic life temperature criteria. Except where noted, temperature is measured
as a 1-day maximum temperature (1-DMax). Table 210 (1)(c) lists the temperature
criteria for each of the aquatic life use categories.
Table 210 (1)(c)
Life Tem Criteria in Marine Water
(i) When a water body's temperature is warmer than the criteria in Table 210
(1)(c) (or within 0.3"C (0.54'F) of the criteria) and that condition is due to natural
conditions, then human actions considered cumulatively may not cause the 7-
DADMax temperature of that water body to increase more than 0.3"C (0.54'F).
(ii) When the natural condition of the water is cooler than the criteria in Table
Page 17
Category Hishest 1-DMax
Extraordinary quality 13'C (55.4'F)
Excellent qualrty 16"C (60.8"F)
Good quality 19'C (66.2"F)
Fair quality 22'C (71.6'F\
210 (1)(c), the allowable rate of warming up to, but not exceeding, the numeric
criteria from human actions is restricted as follows:
(A) I ncremental temperature increases resulting from individual point
source activities must not, at any time, exceed 121(T-2) as measured at
the edge of a mixing zone boundary (where "T" represents the
background temperature as measured at a point or points unaffected by
the discharge and representative of the highest ambient water
temperature in the vicinity of the discharge); and
(B) lncrementaltemperature increases resulting from the combined effect
of all nonpoint source activities in the water body must not, at any time,
exceed 2.8"C (5.04"F).
(iii) Temperatures are not to exceed the criteria at a probability frequency of
more than once every ten years on average.
(iv) Temperature measurements should be taken to represent the dominant
aquatic habitat of the monitoring site. This typically means samples should not be
taken from shallow stagnant backwater areas, within isolated thermal refuges, at
the surface, or at the water's edge.
(v) The department will incorporate the following guidelines on preventing acute
lethality and barriers to migration of salmonids into determinations of compliance
with the narrative requirements for use protection established in this chapter
(e 9., WAC 173-201A-310(1),173-2014-400(4), and 173-201A-410 (1)(c)). The
following site-level considerations do not, however, override the temperature
criteria established for waters in subsection (1Xc) of this subsection or WAC 173-
2014-612:
(A) Moderately acclimated (16-20"C, or 60.8-68'F) adult and juvenile
salmonids will generally be protected from acute lethality by discrete
human actions maintaining the 7-DADMax temperature at or below 22'C
(71.6"F) and the 1-DMax temperature at or below 23"C (73.4"F).
(B) Lethality to developing fish embryos can be expected to occur at a 1-
DMax temperature greater than 17.5'C (63.5'F).
(C) To protect aquatic organisms, discharge plume temperatures must
be maintained such that fish could not be entrained (based on plume time
of travel) for more than two seconds at temperatures above 33"C (91.4"F)
to avoid creating areas that will cause near instantaneous lethality.
(D) Barriers to adult salmonid migration are assumed to exist any time
the 1-DMax temperature is greater than 22'C (71.6"F) and the adjacent
downstream water temperatures are 3'C (5.4"F) or more cooler.
(vi) Nothing in this chapter shall be interpreted to prohibit the establishment of
effluent limitations for the control of the thermal component of any discharge in
accordance with 33 U.S.C. 1326 (commonly known as section 316 of the Clean
WaterAct).
Page 18
(d) Aquatic life dissolved oxygen (D.O.) criteria. Except where noted, D.O.
concentrations are measured as a 1-day minimum in milligrams per liter. Table 210
(1Xd) lists the D.O. criteria for each of the aquatic life use categories.
Table 210 (1Xd)
uatic Life Dissolved Criteria in Marine Water
(i) When a water body's D.O. is lower than the criteria in Table 210 (1Xd) (or
within 0.2 mg/L of the criteria) and that condition is due to natural conditions, then
human actions considered cumulatively may not cause the D.O. of that water
body to decrease more than 0.2 mg/L.
(ii) Concentrations of D.O. are not to fall below the criteria in the table at a
probability frequency of more than once every ten years on average.
(iii) D.O. measurements should be taken to represent the dominant aquatic
habitat of the monitoring site. This typically means samples should not be taken
from shallow stagnant backwater areas, within isolated thermal refuges, at the
surface, or at the water's edge.
(e) Aquatic life turbidity criteria. Turbidity is measured in "nephelometric turbidity
units" or "NTUs." Tabte 210 (1)(e) lists the one-day maximum turbidity allowed as a
result of human actions for each of the aquatic life use categories.
Table 210 (1)(e)
Criteria in Marine Water
(i) The turbidity criteria established under WAC 173-201A-210 (1)(e) shall be
modified, without specific written authorization from the department, to allow a
temporary area of mixing during and immediately after necessary in-water

construction activities that result in the disturbance of in-place sediments. This
temporary area of mixing is subject to the constraints of WAC 173-201A-400 (4)
and (6) and can occur only after the activity has received all other necessary
local and state permits and approvals, and after the implementation of
appropriate best management practices to avoid or minimize disturbance of in-
place sediments and exceedances of the turbidity criteria. For estuaries or
marine waters, the point of compliance for a temporary area of mixing shall be at
a radius of one hundred fifty feet from the activity causing the turbidity
exceedance:
(f) Aquatic life pH criteria. Measurement of pH is expressed as the negative
logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration. Table 210 (1)(0 lists the pH levels allowed
as a result of human actions for each of the aquatic life use categories.
Table 210 (1)(f)
Life Criteria in Marine Water
(2) Shellfish harvesting
(a) General criteria. General criteria that apply to shellfish harvesting uses for marine
water are described in WAC 173-201A-260 (2)(a) and (b), and are for:
(i) Toxic, radioactive, and deleterious materials; and
(ii) Aesthetic values
(b) Shellfish harvesting bacteria criteria. To protect shellfish harvesting, fecal
coliform organism levels must not exceed a geometric mean value of 14 colonies/100
mL, and not have more than 10 percent of all samples (or any single sample when less
than ten sample points exist) obtained for calculating the geometric mean value
exceeding 43 colonies/100 mL.
(i) Shellfish growing areas approved for unconditional harvest by the state
department of health are fully supporting the shellfish harvest goals of this
chapter, even when comparison with the criteria contained in this chapter
suggest otherwise.
(ii) When averaging bacteria sample data for comparison to the geometric mean
criteria, it is preferable to average by season and include five or more data
collection events within each period. Averaging of data collected beyond a thirty-
day period, or beyond a specific discharge event under investigation, is not
permitted when such averaging would skew the data set so as to mask
noncompliance periods. The period of averaging should not exceed twelve
months, and should have sample collection dates well distributed throughout the

(iii) When determining compliance with the bacteria criteria in or around small
sensitive areas, it is recommended that multiple samples are taken throughout
the area during each visit. Such multiple samples should be arithmetically
averaged together (to reduce concerns with low bias when the data is later used
in calculating a geometric mean) to reduce sample variability and to create a
single representative data point.
(iv) As determined necessary by the department, more stringent bacteria criteria
may be established for waters that cause, or significantly contribute to, the
decertification or conditional certification of commercial or recreational shellfish
harvest areas, even when the preassigned bacteria criteria for the water is being
met.
(v) V/here information suggests that sample results are due primarily to sources
other than warm-blooded animals (e.9., wood waste), alternative indicator criteria
may be established on a site-specific basis by the department.
(3) Recreational uses. The recreational uses are primary contact recreation and secondary
contact recreation.
(a) General criteria. General criteria that apply to water contact uses for marine water
are described in WAC 173-201A-260 (2)(a) and (b), and are for:
(i) Toxic, radioactive, and deleterious materials; and
(ii) Aesthetic values.
(b) Water contact recreation bacteria criteria. Table 210 (3Xb) lists the bacteria
criteria to protect water contact recreation in marine water.

(ii) When determining compliance with the bacteria criteria in or around small
sensitive areas, such as swimming beaches, it is recommended that multiple
samples are taken throughout the area during each visit. Such multiple samples
should be arithmetically averaged together (to reduce concerns with low bias
when the data is later used in calculating a geometric mean) to reduce sample
variability and to create a single representative data point.
(iii) As determined necessary by the department, more stringent bacteria criteria
may be established for waters that cause, or significantly contribute to, the

(iv) \Mere information suggests that sample results are due primarily to sources
other than warm-blooded animals (e.9., wood waste), alternative indicator criteria
may be established on a site-specific basis by the department.
(4) Miscellaneous uses. The miscellaneous marine water uses are wildlife habitat, harvesting,
commerce and navigation, boating, and aesthetics.
General criteria. General criteria that apply in miscellaneous marine water uses are described
in WAC 173-201A-260 (2)(a) and (b), and are for:
(a) Toxic, radioactive, and deleterious materials; and
(b) Aesthetic values

Lakes in the Willamette, East Cascade Foothills, or Blue Mountain ecoregions do not have
recommended values and need to have lake-specific studies in order to receive criteria as
described in subsection (3) of this section.
(2) The following actions are recommended if ambient monitoring of a lake shows the
epilimnetic total phosphorus concentration, as shown in Table '1 of this section, is below the
actlon value for an ecoregion:
(a) Determine trophic status from existing or newly gathered data. The recommended
minimum sampling to determine trophic status is calculated as the mean of four or more
samples collected from the epilimnion between June through September in one or more
consecutive years. Sampling must be spread throughout the season.
(b) Propose criteria at or below the upper limit of the trophic state; or
(c) Conduct lake-specific study to determine and propose to adopt appropriate criteria
as described in subsection (3) of this section.
(3) The following actions are recommended if ambient monitoring of a lake shows total
phosphorus to exceed the action value for an ecoregion shown in Table 1 of this section or
Page 23
Action value
Action value
where recommended ecoregional action values do not exist:
(a) Conduct a lake-specific study to evaluate the characteristic uses of the lake. A lake-
specific study may vary depending on the source or threat of impairment. Phytoplankton
blooms, toxic phytoplankton, or excessive aquatic plants, are examples of various
sources of impairment. The following are examples of quantitative measures that a
study may describe: Total phosphorus, total nitrogen, chlorophyll-a, dissolved oxygen in
the hypolimnion if thermally stratified, pH, hardness, or other measures of existing
conditions and potential changes in any one of these parameters.
(b) Determine appropriate total phosphorus concentrations or other nutrient criteria to
protect characteristic lake uses. lf the existing total phosphorus concentration is
protective of characteristic lake uses, then set criteria at existing total phosphorus
concentration. lf the existing total phosphorus concentration is not protective of the
existing characteristic lake uses, then set criteria at a protective concentration.
Proposals to adopt appropriate total phosphorus criteria to protect characteristic uses
must be developed by considering technical information and stakeholder input as part of
a public involvement process equivalent to the Administrative Procedure Act (chapter
34.05 RCW).
(c) Determine if the proposed total phosphorus criteria necessary to protect
characteristic uses is achievable. lf the recommended criterion is not achievable and if
the characteristic use the criterion is intended to protect is not an existing use, then a
higher criterion may be proposed in conformance with 40 C.F.R. part 131.10.
(a) The department will consider proposed lake-specific nutrient criteria during any water quality
standards rule making that follows development of a proposal. Adoption by rule formally
establishes the criteria for that lake.
(5) Prioritization and investigation of lakes by the department will be initiated by listing problem
lakes in a watershed needs assessment, and scheduled as part of the water quality program's
watershed approach to pollution control. This prioritization will apply to lakes identified as
warranting a criteria based on the results of a lake-specific study, to lakes warranting a lake-
specific study for establishing criteria, and to lakes requiring restoration and pollution control
measures due to exceedance of an established criterion. The adoption of nutrient criteria are
generally not intended to apply to lakes or ponds with a surface area smaller than five acres; or
to ponds wholly contained on private property owned and surrounded by a single landowner;
and nutrients do not drain or leach from these lakes or private ponds to the detriment of other
property owners or other water bodies; and do not impact designated uses in the lake.
However, if the landowner proposes criteria the department may consider adoption.
(6) The department may not need to set a lake-specific criteria or further investigate a lake if
existing water quality conditions are naturally poorer (higher TP) than the action value and uses
have not been lost or degraded, per WAC 1 73-2014-260(1).

Toxic substances.
(1) Toxic substances shall not be introduced above natural background levels in waters of the
state which have the potential either singularly or cumulatively to adversely affect characteristic
water uses, cause acute or chronic toxicity to the most sensitive biota dependent upon those
waters, or adversely affect public health, as determined by the department.
(2) The department shall employ or require chemical testing, acute and chronic toxicity testing,
and biological assessments, as appropriate, to evaluate compliance with subsection (1) of this
section and to ensure that aquatic communities and the existing and designated uses of waters
are being fully protected.
(3) USEPA Quality Criteria for Water, 1986, as revised, shall be used in the use and
interpretation of the values listed in subsection (5) of this section.
(4) Concentrations of toxic, and other substances with toxic propensities not listed in Table 240
of this section shall be determined in consideration of USEPA Quality Criteria for Water, 1986,
and as revised, and other relevant information as appropriate.
(5) The following criteria, found in Table 240, shall be applied to all surface waters of the state
of Washington. Values are pg/L for all substances except ammonia and chloride which are
mg/L, and asbestos which is million fibers/L. The department shallformally adopt any
appropriate revised criteria as part of this chapter in accordance with the provisions established
in chapter 34.05 RCW, the Administrative Procedure Act. The department shall ensure there
are early opportunities for public review and comment on proposals to develop revised criteria.
(a) Aquatic life protection. The department may revise the criteria in Table 240 for
aquatic life on a statewide or water body-specific basis as needed to protect aquatic life
occurring in waters of the state and to increase the technical accuracy of the criteria
being applied. The department shall formally adopt any appropriate revised criteria as
part of this chapter in accordance with the provisions established in chapter 34.05 RCW,
the Administrative Procedure Act.
(b) Human health protection. The following provisions apply to the human health
criteria in Table 240. All waters shall maintain a level of water quality when entering
downstream waters that provides for the attainment and maintenance of the water
quality standards of those downstream waters, including the waters of another state.
The human health criteria in the tables were calculated using a fish consumption rate of
175 glday. Criteria for carcinogenic substances were calculated using a cancer risk
level equalto one-in-one-million, or as otherwise specified in this chapter. The human
health criteria calculations and variables include chronic durations of exposure up to
seventy years. All human health criteria for metals are for total metal concentrations,
unless otherwise noted. Dischargers have the obligation to reduce toxics in discharges
through the use of AKART.
Page25
Supplemental lnformation for
Table 240: Toxics Substances Criteria
Table 240 includes a column listing EPA's federally promulgated human health criteria at 40 CFR 131.45. For
chemicals with federal criteria, the federal criteria apply for Clean Water Act purposes, such as NPDES permits
or 303(d) listings. Units of measure are pg/L for all substances except ammonia and chloride, which are in
mg/L, and methylmercury which is in milligram of methylmercury per kilogram of fish (mg methylmercury/kg
fish).

EPA footnotes for federal Human Health Criteria for Washington:
a This criterion refers to the inorganic form of arsenic only.
b This criterion is expressed as the fish tissue concentration of methylmercury (mg methylmercury/kg
fish). See Water Quality Criteion for the Protection of Human
Health: Methylmercury (EPA423-R-01-001, January 3, 2001) for how this value is calculated using
the criterion equation in EPA's 2000 Human Health Methodology
rearranged to solve for a protective concentration in fish tissue rather than in water.c This criterion applies to total PCBs (e.9., the sum of all congener or isomer or homolog or Aroclor
analyses).. Bis(2-Chloro-1-Methylethyl) Ether was previously listed as Bis(2-Chloroisopropyl) Ether.** These criteria were promulgated for Washington in the National Toxics Rule at 40 CFR 131.36, and are
moved into 40 CFR 131.45 to have one comprehensive
human health criteria rule for Washington.
EPA Applicability language for federal Human Health Criteria for Washington:
40 CFR 131.45 (c) Applicability.
(1) The criteria in paragraph (b) of this section apply to waters with Washington's designated uses cited
in paragraph (d) of this section and apply concurrently with other applicable water quality criteria.
(2) The criteria established in this section are subject to Washington's general rules of applicability in
the same way and to the same extent as are other federally promulgated and state-adopted numeric
criteria when applied to the same use classifications in paragraph (d) of this section.
(i) For all waters with mixing zone regulations or implementation procedures, the criteria apply
at the appropriate locations within or at the boundary of the mixing zones; otherwise the criteria
apply throughout the waterbody including at the end of any discharge pipe, conveyance or
other discharge point within the waterbody.
(ii) The state must not use a low flow value below which numeric noncarcinogen and
carcinogen human health criteria can be exceeded that is less stringent than the harmonic
mean flow for waters suitable for the establishment of low flow return frequencies (i.e., streams
and rivers). Harmonic mean flow is a long-term mean flow value calculated by dividing the
number of daily flows analyzed by the sum of the reciprocals of those daily flows.
(iii) lf the state does not have such a low flow value for numeric criteria, then none will apply
and the criteria in paragraph (b) of this section herein apply at all flows.
For information on the applicable use designations for the federal criteria, see 40 CFR 131.45 (d).

h. Measured in milligrams per liter rather than micrograms per liter.
i. s (0.944)(e(1 .128[n(hardness)]-3.828)) at hardness = 100. Conversion factor (CF)
of 0.944 is hardness dependent. CF is calculated for other hardnesses as follows:
CF = 1 .136672- [(ln hardness)(0.041838)].
j. < (0.909Xe(0.7852[n(hardness)]-3.490)) at hardness = 100. Conversions factor

follows: CF = 1.101672 - [(ln hardness)(0.041838)].
k. Criterion based on dissolved chloride in association with sodium. This criterion
probably will not be adequately protective when the chloride is associated with
potassium, calcium, or magnesium, rather than sodium.
l. Salinity dependent effects. At low salinity the 1-hour average may not be sufficiently
protective.

cc. Nonlethal effects (growth, C-14 uptake, and chlorophyll production) to diatoms
(Ihalassiosira aestivalis and Ske/efonema costatum) which are common to
Washington's waters have been noted at levels below the established criteria. The
importance of these effects to the diatom populations and the aquatic system is
sufficiently in question to persuade the state to adopt the USEPA National Criteria
value (36 ;rgll) as the state threshold criteria, however, wherever practical the
ambient concentrations should not be allowed to exceed a chronic marine
concentration of 21 pg/L.
dd. These ambient criteria in the table are for the dissolved fraction. The cyanide criteria
are based on the weak acid dissociable method. The metals criteria may not be
used to calculate total recoverable effluent limits unless the seasonal partitioning of
the dissolved to total metals in the ambient water are known. When this information
is absent, these metals criteria shall be applied as total recoverable values,
determined by back-calculation, using the conversion factors incorporated in the
criterion equations. Metals criteria may be adjusted on a site-specific basis when
data are made available to the department clearly demonstrating the effective use of
the water effects ratio approach established by USEPA, as generally guided by the
procedures in USEPA Water Quality Standards Handbook, December 1983, as
supplemented or replaced by USEPA or ecology. lnformation which is used to
develop effluent limits based on applying metals partitioning studies or the water
effects ratio approach shall be identified in the permit fact sheet developed pursuant
to WAC 173-220-060 or 173-226-110, as appropriate, and shall be made available
for the public comment period required pursuant to WAC 173-220-050 or 173-226-
130(3), as appropriate. Ecology has developed supplemental guidance for
conducting water effect ratio studies.
ee. The criteria for cyanide is based on the weak acid dissociable method in the 19th Ed.
Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, 4500-CN l, and as
revised (see footnote dd, above).
ff. These criteria are based on the total-recoverable fraction of the metal.
gg. Where methods to measure trivalent chromium are unavailable, these criteria are to
be represented by total-recoverable chromium.
hh. The listed fresh water criteria are based on un-ionized or total ammonia
concentrations, while those for marine water are based on un-ionized ammonia
concentrations. Tables for the conversion of total ammonia to un-ionized ammonia
for freshwater can be found in the USEPA's Quality Criteria for Water, 1986. Criteria
concentrations based on total ammonia for marine water can be found in USEPA

mm. The cyanide criteria are:2.81tgfl chronic and 9.1pg/l acute and are applicable
only to waters which are east of a line from Point Roberts to Lawrence Point, to
Green Point to Deception Pass; and south from Deception Pass and of a line from
Partridge Point to Point Wilson. The chronic criterion applicable to the remainder of
the marine waters is I pg/L.
Footnotes for human health criteria in Table 240:
A. This criterion for total arsenic is the maximum contaminant level (MCL) developed under
the Safe Drinking Water Act. The MCL for total arsenic is applied to surface waters
where consumption of organisms-only and where consumption of water + organisms
reflect the designated uses. When the department determines that a direct or indirect
industrial discharge to surface waters designated for domestic water supply may be
adding arsenic to its wastewater, the department will require the discharger to develop
and implement a pollution prevention plan to reduce arsenic through the use of AKART.
lndustrial wastewater discharges to a privately or publicly owned wastewater treatment
facility are considered indirect discharges
B. This criterion was calculated based on an additional lifetime cancer risk of one-in-one-
million (1 x 10-6 risk level).
C. This criterion is based on a regulatory level developed under the Safe Drinking Water
Act.
D. This recommended water quality criterion is expressed as total cyanide, even though the
integrated risk information system RfD used to derive the criterion is based on free
cyanide. The multiple forms of cyanide that are present in ambient water have significant
differences in toxicity due to their differing abilities to liberate the CN-moiety. Some
complex cyanides require even more extreme conditions than refluxing with sulfuric acid
to liberate the CN-moiety. Thus, these complex cyanides are expected to have little or
no "bioavailability" to humans. lf a substantial fraction of the cyanide present in a water
body is present in a complexed form (e.9., Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3), this criterion may be overly
conservative.
E. This criterion applies to total PCBs, (e.9., the sum of all congener or all isomer or
homolog or Aroclor analyses). The PCBs criteria were calculated using a chemical-
specific risk level of 4 x 10-s. Because that calculation resulted in a higher (less
protective) concentration than the current criterion concentration (40 C.F.R. 131 .36) the
state made a chemical-specific decision to stay at the current criterion concentration.
Page 39
F. This criterion was derived using the cancer slope factor of 1.4 (linearized multistage
model with a twofold increase to 1.4 per mg/kg-day to account for continuous lifetime
exposure from birth).
G. The human health criteria for mercury are contained in 40 C.F.R. 131 .36.

Natural conditions and other water quality criteria and applications.
(1) Natural and irreversible human conditions.
(a) lt is recognized that portions of many water bodies cannot meet the assigned criteria
due to the natural conditions of the water body. \Men a water body does not meet its
assigned criteria due to natural climatic or landscape attributes, the natural conditions
constitute the water quality criteria.
(b) When a water body does not meet its assigned criteria due to human structural
changes that cannot be effectively remedied (as determined consistent with the federal
regulations at 40 C.F.R. 131.10), then alternative estimates of the attainable water
Page 40
quality conditions, plus any further allowances for human effects specified in this chapter
for when natural conditions exceed the criteria, may be used to establish an alternative
criteria for the water body (see WAC 173-201A-430 and 173-201A-440).
(2) Toxics and aesthetics criteria. The following narrative criteria apply to all existing and
designated uses for fresh and marine water:
(a) Toxic, radioactive, or deleterious material concentrations must be below those which
have the potential, either singularly or cumulatively, to adversely affect characteristic
water uses, cause acute or chronic conditions to the most sensitive biota dependent
upon those waters, or adversely affect public health (see WAC 173-201A-240, toxic
su bsta nces, and I 7 3-20 1 A-250, rad i oactive su bsta nces).
(b) Aesthetic values must not be impaired by the presence of materials or their effects,
excluding those of natural origin, which offend the senses of sight, smell, touch, or taste
(see WAC 173-201A-230 for guidance on establishing lake nutrient standards to protect
aesthetics).
(3) Procedures for applying water quality criteria. ln applying the appropriate water quality
criteria for a water body, the department will use the following procedure:
(a) The department will establish water quality requirements for water bodies, in addition
to those specifically listed in this chapter, on a case-specific basis where determined
necessary to provide full support for designated and existing uses.
(b) Upsheam actions must be conducted in manners that meet downstream water body
criteria. Except where and to the extent described otherwise in this chapter, the criteria
associated with the most upstream uses designated for a water body are to be applied to
headwaters to protect nonfish aquatic species and the designated downstream uses.
(c) V/here multiple criteria for the same water quality parameter are assigned to a water
body to protect different uses, the most stringent criterion for each parameter is to be
applied.
(d) At the boundary between water bodies protected for different uses, the more
stringent criteria apply.
(e) ln brackish waters of estuaries, where different criteria for the same use occurs for
fresh and marine waters, the decision to use the fresh water or the marine water criteria
must be selected and applied on the basis of vertically averaged daily maximum salinity,
referred to below as "salinity."
(i) The fresh water criteria must be applied at any point where ninety-five percent
of the salinity values are less than or equal to one part per thousand, except that
the fresh water criteria for bacteria applies when the salinity is less than ten parts
per thousand; and
(ii) The marine water criteria must apply at all other locations where the salinity
values are greater than one part per thousand, except that the marine criteria for
bacteria applies when the salinity is ten parts per thousand or greater.
Page 41
(f) Numeric criteria established in this chapter are not intended for application to human
created waters managed primarily for the removal or containment of pollution. This
special provision also includes private farm ponds created from upland sites that did not
incorporate natural water bodies.
(i) Waters covered under this provision must be managed so that:
(A) They do not create unreasonable risks to human health or uses of the
water; and
(B) Discharges from these systems meet down gradient surface and
ground water quality standards.
(ii) This provision does not apply to waterways designed and managed primarily
to convey or transport water from one location to another, rather than to remove
pollution en route.
(g) When applying the numeric criteria established in this chapter, the department will
give consideration to the precision and accuracy of the sampling and analytical methods
used, as well as the existing conditions at the time.
(h) The analytical testing methods for these numeric criteria must be in accordance with
the "Guidelines Esfab/rshing Test Procedures for the Analysis of Pollutants" (40 C.F.R.
Part 136) or superseding methods published. The department may also approve other
methods following consultation with adjacent states and with the approval of the USEPA.
(i) The primary means for protecting water quality in wetlands is through implementing
the antidegradation procedures described in Part lll of this chapter.
(i) ln addition to designated uses, wetlands may have existing beneficial uses
that are to be protected that include ground water exchange, shoreline
stabilization, and stormwater attenuation.
(ii) Water quality in wetlands is maintained and protected by maintaining the
hydrologic conditions, hydrophytic vegetation, and substrate characteristics
necessary to support existing and designated uses.
(iii) Wetlands must be delineated using the Washington State Wetlands
ldentification and Delineation Manual, in accordance with WAC 173-22-035.

Description.
(1) The antidegradation policy is guided by chapter 90.48 RCW, Water Pollution ControlAct,
chapter 90.54 RCW, Water Resources Act of 1971 , and 40 C.F.R. 131.12.
(2) The purpose of the antidegradation policy is to
(a) Restore and maintain the highest possible quality of the surface waters of
Washington;
(b) Describe situations under which water quality may be lowered from its current
condition;
(c) Apply to human activities that are likely to have an impact on the water quality of a
surface water;
(d) Ensure that all human activities that are likely to contribute to a lowering of water
quality, at a minimum, apply all known, available, and reasonable methods of prevention,
control, and treatment (AKART); and
(e) Apply three levels of protection for surface waters of the state, as generally
described below:
(i) Tier I is used to ensure existing and designated uses are maintained and
protected and applies to all waters and all sources of pollution.
(ii) Tier ll is used to ensure that waters of a higher quality than the criteria
assigned in this chapter are not degraded unless such lowering of water quality is
necessary and in the overriding public interest. Tier ll applies only to a specific
list of polluting activities.
(iii) Tier lll is used to prevent the degradation of waters formally listed in this
chapter as "outstanding resource waters," and applies to all sources of pollution
(3) Habitat restoration. Both temporary harm and permanent loss of existing uses may be
allowed by the department where determined necessary to secure greater ecological benefits
through major habitat restoration projects designed to return the natural physical structure and
associated uses to a water body where the structure has been altered through human action.

Tier I - Protection and maintenance of existing and designated uses.
(1) Existing and designated uses must be maintained and protected. No degradation may be
allowed that would interfere with, or become injurious to, existing or designated uses, except as
provided for in this chapter.
(2) For waters that do not meet assigned criteria, or protect existing or designated uses, the
department will take appropriate and definitive steps to bring the water quality back into
compliance with the water quality standards.
(3) \Menever the natural conditions of a water body are of a lower quality than the assigned
criteria, the natural conditions constitute the water quality criteria. Where water quality criteria
are not met because of natural conditions, human actions are not allowed to further lower the
water quality, except where explicitly allowed in this chapter.

173-201A-320
Tier ll - Protection of watens of higher quality than the standards.
(1) Whenever a water quality constituent is of a higher quality than a criterion designated for
that water under this chapter, new or expanded actions within the categories identified in
subsection (2) of this section that are expected to cause a measurable change in the quality of
the water (see subsection (3) of this section) may not be allowed unless the department
determines that the lowering of water quality is necessary and in the overriding public interest
(see subsection (4) of this section).
(2) A Tier ll review will only be conducted for new or expanded actions conducted under the
following authorizations. Public involvement with the Tier ll review will be conducted in
accordance with the public involvement processes associated with these actions.
(a) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) waste discharge permits;
(b) State waste discharge permits to surface waters;
(c) Federal Clean Water Act Section 401 water quality certifications; and
(d) Other water pollution control programs authorized, implemented, or administered by
the department.
(3) Definition of measurable change. To determine that a lowering of water quality is
necessary and in the overriding public interest, an analysis must be conducted for new or
expanded actions when the resulting action has the potentialto cause a measurable change in
the physical, chemical, or biological quality of a water body. Measurable changes will be
determined based on an estimated change in water quality at a point outside the source area,
after allowing for mixing consistent with WAC 173-201A-400(7). ln the context of this regulation,
Page 44
a measurable change includes a:
(a) Temperature increase of 0.3'C or greater;
(b) Dissolved oxygen decrease of 0.2 mg/L or greater;
(c) Bacteria level increase of 2 cfu/100 mL or greater;
(d) pH change of 0.1 units or greater;
(e) Turbidity increase of 0.5 NTU or greater; or
(f) Any detectable increase in the concentration of a toxic or radioactive substance.
(4) Necessary and overriding public interest determinations. Once an activity has been
determined to cause a measurable lowering in water quality, then an analysis must be
conducted to determine if the lowering of water quality is necessary and in the overriding public
interest. lnformation to conduct the analysis must be provided by the applicant seeking the
authorization, or by the department in developing a general permit or pollution control program,
and must include:
(a) Necessary and overriding public interest determinations. Once an activity has
been determined to cause a measurable lowering in water quality, then an analysis must
be conducted to determine if the lowering of water quality is necessary and in the
overriding public interest. lnformation to conduct the analysis must be provided by the
applicant seeking the authorization, or by the department in developing a general permit
or pollution control program, and must include:
(i) Economic benefits such as creating or expanding employment, increasing
median family income, or increasing the community tax base;
(ii) Providing or contributing to necessary social services;
(iii) The use and demonstration of innovative pollution control and management
approaches that would allow a significant improvement in AKART for a particular
industry or category of action;
(iv) The prevention or remediation of environmental or public health threats;
(v) The societal and economic benefits of better health protection;
(vi) The preservation of assimilative capacity for future industry and
development; and
(vii) The benefits associated with high water quality for uses such as fishing,
recreation, and tourism.
(b) lnformation that identifies and selects the best combination of site, structural, and
managerial approaches that can be feasibly implemented to prevent or minimize the
lowering of water quality. This information will be used by the department to determine if
the lowering of water quality is necessary. Examples that may be considered as
alternatives include:
(i) Pollution prevention measures (such as changes in plant processes, source
reduction, and substitution with less toxic substances);
Page 45
(ii) Recycle/reuse of waste by-products or production materials and fluids;
(iii) Application of water conservation methods;
(iv) Alternative or enhanced treatment technology;
(v) lmproved operation and maintenance of existing treatment systems;
(vi) Seasonal or controlled discharge options to avoid critical conditions of water
quality;
(vii) Establishing buffer areas with effective limits on activities;
(viii) Land application or infiltration to capture pollutants and reduce surface
runoff, on-site treatment, or alternative discharge locations;
(ix) Water quality offsets as described in WAC 173-201A-450.
(5) The department retains the discretion to require that the applicant examine specific
alternatives, or that additional information be provided to conduct the analysis.
(6) General permit and water pollution control programs are developed for a category of
dischargers that have similar processes and pollutants. New or reissued general permits or
other water pollution control programs authorized, implemented, or administered by the
department will undergo an analysis under Tier ll at the time the department develops and
approves the general permit or program.
(a) lndividual activities covered under these general permits or programs will not require
a Tier ll analysis.
(b) The department will describe in writing how the general permit or control program
meets the antidegradation requirements of this section.
(c) The department recognizes that many water quality protection programs and their
associated control technologies are in a continual state of improvement and
development. As a result, information regarding the existence, effectiveness, or costs of
control practices for reducing pollution and meeting the water quality standards may be
incomplete. ln these instances, the antidegradation requirements of this section can be
considered met for general permits and programs that have a formal process to select,
develop, adopt, and refine control practices for protecting water quality and meeting the
intent of this section. This adaptive process must:
(i) Ensure that information is developed and used expeditiously to revise permit
or program requirements;
(ii) Review and refine management and control programs in cycles not to exceed
five years or the period of permit reissuance; and
(iii) lnclude a plan that describes how information will be obtained and used to
ensure full compliance with this chapter. The plan must be developed and
documented in advance of permit or program approval under this section.
(7) All authorizations under this section must still comply with the provisions of Tier I (WAC 173-
201A-310).

Tier Ill - Protection of outstanding resource waters.
Where a high quality water is designated as an outstanding resource water, the water quality
and uses of those waters must be maintained and protected. As part of the public process, a
qualifying water body may be designated as Tier lll(A) which prohibits any and allfuture
degradation, or Tier lll(B) which allows for de minimis (below measurable amounts) degradation
from well-controlled activities.
(1) To be eligible for designation as an outstanding resource water in Washington, one or more
of the following must apply:
(a) The water is in a relatively pristine condition (largely absent human sources of
degradation) or possesses exceptionalwater quality, and also occurs in federal and
state parks, monuments, preserves, wildlife refuges, wilderness areas, marine
sanctuaries, estuarine research reserves, or wild and scenic rivers;
(b) The water has unique aquatic habitat types (for example, peat bogs) that by
conventionalwater quality parameters (such as dissolved oxygen, temperature, or
sediment) are not considered high quality, but that are unique and regionally rare
examples of their kind;
(c) The water has both high water quality and regionally unique recreational value'
(d) The water is of exceptional statewide ecological significance; or
(e) The water has cold water thermal refuges critical to the long-term protection of
aquatic species. For this type of outstanding resource water, the nondegradation
protection would apply only to temperature and dissolved oxygen.
(2) Any water or portion thereof that meets one or more of the conditions described in
subsection (1) of this section may be designated for protection as an outstanding resource
water. A request for designation may be made by the department or through public nominations
that are submitted to the department in writing and that include sufficient information to show
how the water body meets the appropriate conditions identified in this section.
(3) After receiving a request for outstanding resource water designation, the department will
(a) Respond within sixty days of receipt with a decision on whether the submitted
information demonstrates that the water body meets the eligibility requirements for an
outstanding resource water. lf the submitted information demonstrates that the water
body meets the eligibility requirements, the department will schedule a review of the
nominated water for designation as an outstanding resource water. The review will
include a public process and consultation with recognized tribes in the geographic
vicinity of the water.
(b) ln determining whether or not to designate an outstanding resource water, the
department will consider factors relating to the difficulty of maintaining the current quality
of the water body. Outstanding resource waters should not be designated where
substantial and imminent social or economic impact to the local community will occur,
unless local public support is overwhelmingly in favor of the designation. The
department will carefully weigh the level of support from the public and affected
governments in assessing whether or not to designate the water as an outstanding
resource water.
Page 47
(c) After considering public comments and weighing public support for the proposal, the
department will make a flnal determination on whether a nominated water body should
be adopted into this chapter as an outstanding resource water.
(4) A designated outstanding resource water will be maintained and protected from all
degradation, except for the following situations:
(a) Temporary actions that are necessary to protect the public interest as approved by
the department.
(b) Treatment works bypasses for sewage, waste, and stormwater are allowed where
such a bypass is unavoidable to prevent the loss of life, personal injury, or severe
property damage, and no feasible alternatives to the bypass exist.
(c) Response actions taken in accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental
Response Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), as amended, or similar federal or
state authorities, to alleviate a release into the environment of substances which may
pose an imminent and substantial danger to public health or welfare.
(d) The sources of degradation are from atmospheric deposition.
(5) Outstanding resources waters can be designated for either Tier lll(A) or Tier lll(B)
protection.
(a) Tier lll(A) is the highest level of protection and allows no further degradation after
the waters have been formally designated Tier lll(A) under this chapter.
(b) Tier lll(B) is the second highest level of protection for outstanding resource waters
and conditionally allows minor degradation to occur due to highly controlled actions. The
requirements for Tier lll(B) are as follows:
(i) To meet the goal for maintaining and protecting the quality of Tier lll(B)
waters, sources of pollution, considered individually and cumulatively, are not to
cause measurable degradation of the water body.
(ii) Regardless of the quality of the water body, all new or expanded point
sources of pollution in Tier lll(B) waters must use applicable advanced waste
treatment and control techniques that reasonably represent the state of the art
and must minimize the degradation of water quality to nonmeasurable levels
where total elimination is not feasible. Nonpoint sources must use all applicable
structural and nonstructural BMPs with the goal of reducing the degradation of
water quality to nonmeasurable levels where total elimination is not feasible.

Mixing zones.
(1) The allowable size and location of a mixing zone and the associated effluent limits shall be
established in discharge permits, general permits, or orders, as appropriate.
(2) A discharger shall be required to fully apply AKART prior to being authorized a mixing zone
(3) Mixing zone determinations shall consider critical discharge conditions.
(4) No mixing zone shall be granted unless the supporting information clearly indicates the
mixing zone would not have a reasonable potential to cause a loss of sensitive or important
habitat, substantially interfere with the existing or characteristic uses of the water body, result in
damage to the ecosystem, or adversely affect public health as determined by the department.
(5) Water quality criteria shall not be violated outside of the boundary of a mixing zone as a
result of the discharge for which the mixing zone was authorized.
(6) The size of a mixing zone and the concentrations of pollutants present shall be minimized
(7) The maximum size of a mixing zone shall comply with the following:
(a) ln rivers and streams, mixing zones, singularly or in combination with other mixing
zones, shall comply with the most restrictive combination of the following (this size
limitation may be applied to estuaries having flow characteristics that resemble rivers):
(i) Not extend in a downstream direction for a distance from the discharge port(s)
greater than three hundred feet plus the depth of water over the discharge
port(s), or extend upstream for a distance of over one hundred feet;
(ii) Not utilize greater than twenty-five percent of the flow; and
(iii) Not occupy greater than twenty-five percent of the width of the water body.
(b) ln estuaries, mixing zones, singularly or in combination with other mixing zones,
shall:
(i) Not extend in any horizontal direction from the discharge port(s) for a distance
greater than two hundred feet plus the depth of water over the discharge port(s)
as measured during mean lower low water; and
(ii) Not occupy greater than twenty-five percent of the width of the water body as
measured during mean lower low water. For the purpose of this section, areas to
the east of a line from Green Point (Fidalgo lsland) to Lawrence Point (Orcas
lsland) are considered estuarine, as are all of the Strait of Georgia and the San
Juan lslands north of Orcas lsland. To the east of Deception Pass, and to the
south and east of Admiralty Head, and south of Point Wilson on the Quimper
Peninsula, is Puget Sound proper, which is considered to be entirely estuarine.
All waters existing within bays from Point Wilson westward to Cape Flattery and
south to the North Jetty of the Columbia River shall also be categorized as
estuarine.
Page 49
(c) ln oceanic waters, mixing zones, singularly or in combination with other mixing
zones, shall not extend in any horizontal direction from the discharge port(s) for a
distance greater than three hundred feet plus the depth of water over the discharge
port(s) as measured during mean lower low water. For the purpose of this section, all
marine waters not classified as estuarine in (b)(ii) of this subsection shall be categorized
as oceanic.
(d) ln lakes, and in reservoirs having a mean detention time greater than fifteen days,
mixing zones shall not be allowed unless it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of
the department that:
(i) Other siting, technological, and managerial options that would avoid the need
for a lake mixing zone are not reasonably achievable;
(ii) Overriding considerations of the public interest will be served; and
(iii) All technological and managerial methods available for pollution reduction
and removal that are economically achievable would be implemented prior to
discharge. Such methods may include, but not be limited to, advanced waste
treatment techniques.
(e) ln lakes, and in reservoirs having a mean detention time greater than fifteen days,
mixing zones, singularly or in combination with other mixing zones, shall comply with the
most restrictive combination of the following:
(i) Not exceed ten percent of the water body volume;
(ii) Not exceed ten percent of the water body surface area (maximum radial
extent of the plume regardless of whether it reaches the surface); and
(iii) Not extend beyond fifteen percent of the width of the water body.
(8) Acute criteria are based on numeric criteria and toxicity tests approved by the department,
as generally guided under WAC 173-201A-240 (1) through (5), and shall be met as near to the
point of discharge as practicably attainable. Compliance shall be determined by monitoring data
or calibrated models approved by the department utilizing representative dilution ratios. A zone
where acute criteria may be exceeded is allowed only if it can be demonstrated to the
department's satisfaction the concentration of, and duration and frequency of exposure to the
discharge, will not create a barrier to the migration or translocation of indigenous organisms to a
degree that has the potential to cause damage to the ecosystem. A zone of acute criteria
exceedance shall singularly or in combination with other such zones comply with the following
maximum size requirements:
(a) ln rivers and streams, a zone where acute criteria may be exceeded shall comply
with the most restrictive combination of the following (this size limitation may also be
applied to estuaries having flow characteristics resembling rivers):
Page 50
(i) Not extend beyond ten percent of the distance towards the upstream and
downstream boundaries of an authorized mixing zone, as measured
independently from the discharge port(s);
(ii) Not utilize greater than two and one-half percent of the flow; and
(iii) Not occupy greater than twenty-five percent of the width of the water body.
(b) ln oceanic and estuarine waters a zone where acute criteria may be exceeded shall
not extend beyond ten percent of the distance established in subsection (7Xb) of this
section as measured independently from the discharge port(s).
(9) Overlap of mixing zones.
(a) Where allowing the overlap of mixing zones would result in a combined area of
water quality criteria nonattainment which does not exceed the numeric size limits
established under subsection (7) of this section, the overlap may be permitted if:
(i) The separate and combined effects of the discharges can be reasonably
determined; and
(ii) The combined effects would not create a barrier to the migration or
translocation of indigenous organisms to a degree that has the potential to cause
damage to the ecosystem.
(b) Where allowing the overlap of mixing zones would result in exceedance of the
numeric size limits established under subsection (7) of this section, the overlap may be
allowed only where:
(i) The overlap qualifies for exemption under subsections (12) and (13) of this
section; and
(ii) The overlap meets the requirements established in (a) of this subsection.
(10) Stormwater:
(a) Stormwater discharge from any "point source" containing "process wastewater" as
defined in 40 C.F.R. Parl122.2 shall fully conform to the numeric size criteria in
subsections (7) and (8) of this section and the overlap criteria in subsection (9) of this
section.
(b) Stormwater discharges not described by (a) of this subsection may be granted an
exemption to the numeric size criteria in subsections (7) and (8) of this section and the
overlap criteria in subsection (9) of this section, provided the discharger clearly
demonstrates to the department's satisfaction that:
(i) All appropriate best management practices established for stormwater
pollutant control have been applied to the discharge.
(ii) The proposed mixing zone shall not have a reasonable potential to result in a
loss of sensitive or important habitat, substantially interfere with the existing or
characteristic uses of the water body, result in damage to the ecosystem, or
adversely affect public health as determined by the department; and
(iii) The proposed mixing zone shall not create a barrier to the migration or
translocation of indigenous organisms to a degree that has the potentialto cause
damage to the ecosystem.
(c) All mixing zones for stormwater discharges shall be based on a volume of runoff
corresponding to a design storm approved by the department. Exceedances from the
numeric size criteria in subsections (7) and (8) of this section and the overlap criteria in
subsection (9) of this section due to precipitation events greater than the approved
design storm may be allowed by the department, if it would not result in adverse impact
Page 5l
to existing or characteristic uses of the water body or result in damage to the ecosystem,
or adversely affect public health as determined by the department.
(1 1) Combined sewer overflows complying with the requirements of chapter 173-245 WAC,
may be allowed an average once per year exemption to the numeric size criteria in subsections
(7) and (8) of this section and the overlap criteria in subsection (9) of this section, provided the
discharge complies with subsection (4) of this section.
(12) Exceedances from the numeric size criteria in subsections (7) and (8) of this section and
the overlap criteria in subsection (9) of this section may be considered by the department in the
following cases:
(a) For discharges existing prior to November 24, 1992, (or for proposed discharges
with engineering plans formally approved by the department prior to November 24,
1992);
(b) Where altering the size configuration is expected to result in greater protection to
existing and characteristic uses;
(c) Where the volume of water in the effluent is providing a greater benefit to the
existing or characteristic uses of the water body due to flow augmentation than the
benefit of removing the discharge, if such removal is the remaining feasible option; or
(d) Where the exceedance is clearly necessary to accommodate important economic or
social development in the area in which the waters are located.
(13) Before an exceedance from the numeric size criteria in subsections (7) and (8) of this
section and the overlap criteria in subsection (9) of this section may be allowed under
subsection (12) of this section, it must clearly be demonstrated to the department's satisfaction
that:
(a) AKART appropriate to the discharge is being fully applied;
(b) All siting, technological, and managerial options which would result in full or
significantly closer compliance that are economically achievable are being utilized; and
(c) The proposed mixing zone complies with subsection (4) of this section.
(14) Any exemptions granted to the size criteria under subsection (12) of this section shall be
reexamined during each permit renewal period for changes in compliance capability. Any
significant increase in capability to comply shall be reflected in the renewed discharge permit.
(15) The department may establish permit limits and measures of compliance for human health
based criteria (based on lifetime exposure levels), independent of this section.
(16) Sediment impact zones authorized by the department pursuant to chapter 173-204 WAC,
Sediment management standards, do not satisfy the requirements of this section.

173-201A-320,173-201A-602 and 173-2014-612 may be modifled for a specific water body on
a short-term basis (e.9., actual periods of nonattainment would generally be limited to hours or
days rather than weeks or months) when necessary to accommodate essential activities,
respond to emergencies, or to otherwise protect the public interest, even though such activities
may result in a temporary reduction of water quality conditions.
(1) A short-term modification will
(a) Be authorized in writing by the department, and conditioned, timed, and restricted in
a manner that will minimize degradation of water quality, existing uses, and designated
uses;
(b) Be valid for the duration of the activity requiring modification of the criteria and
special conditions in WAC 173-201A-200 through 173-201A-260, 173-201A-602 or 173-
201A-612, as determined by the department;
(c) Allow degradation of water quality if the degradation does not significantly interfere
with or become injurious to existing or designated water uses or cause longterm harm
to the environment; and
(d) ln no way lessen or remove the proponent's obligations and liabilities under other
federal, state, and local rules and regulations.
(2) The department may authorize a longer duration where the activity is part of an ongoing or
longterm operation and maintenance plan, integrated pest or noxious weed management plan,
water body or watershed management plan, or restoration plan. Such a plan must be
developed through a public involvement process consistent with the Administrative Procedure
Act (chapter 34.05 RCW and be in compliance with SEPA, chapter 43.21C RCW, in which case
the standards may be modified for the duration of the plan, or for five years, whichever is less.
Such longterm plans may be renewed by the department after providing for another opportunity
for public and intergovernmental involvement and review.
(3) The department may allow a major watershed restoration activity that will provide greater
beneflts to the health of the aquatic system in the long-term (examples include removing dams
or reconnecting meander channels) that, in the short term, may cause significant impacts to
existing or designated uses as a result of the activities to restore the water body and
environmental conditions. Authorization will be given in accordance with subsection (2) of this
section.
(4) A short-term modification may be issued in writing by the director or his/her designee to an
individual or entity proposing the aquatic application of pesticides, including but not limited to
those used for control of federally or state listed noxious and invasive species, and excess
populations of native aquatic plants, mosquitoes, burrowing shrimp, and fish, subject to the
following terms and conditions:
Page 53
(a) A request for a short-term modification shall be made to the department on forms
supplied by the department. Such request shall be made at least thirty days prior to
initiation of the proposed activity, and after the project proponent has complied with the
requirements of the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA);
(b) Appropriate public notice as determined and prescribed by the director or his/her
designee shall be given, identifying the pesticide, applicator, location where the pesticide
will be applied, proposed timing and method of application, and any water use
restrictions specified in USEPA label provisions;
(c) The pesticide application shall be made at times so as to:
(i) Minimize public water use restrictions during weekends; and
(ii) Avoid public water use restrictions during the opening week of fishing
season, Memorial Day weekend, lndependence Day weekend, and Labor Day
weekend;
(d) Any additional conditions as may be prescribed by the director or his/her designee.
(5) A short-term modification may be issued for the control or eradication of noxious weeds
identified as such in accordance with the state noxious weed control law, chapter 17.10 RCW,
and Control of spartina and purple loosestrife, chapter 17.26 RCW. Short-term modifications for
noxious weed control shall be included in a water quality permit issued in accordance with RCW
90.48.445, and the following requirements:
(a) The department may issue water quality permits for noxious weed control to the
Washington state department of agriculture (WSDA) for the purposes of coordinating
and conducting noxious weed control activities consistent with WSDA's responsibilities
under chapters 17.10 and 17.26 RCW. Coordination may include noxious weed control
activities identified in a WSDA integrated noxious weed management plan and
conducted by individual landowners or land managers.
(b) T e department may also issue water quality permits to individual landowners or land
managers for noxious weed control activities where such activities are not covered by a
WSDA integrated noxious weed management plan.

Variance.
(1) Genera! provisions. Variances for individual facilities, a group of facilities, or stretches of
waters may be issued for the criteria and designated uses established in WAC 173-201A-200
through 173-201A-260 and 173-201A-600 through 173-201A-612. The following conditions
apply when considering issuance of a variance:
(a) A variance may be considered when the standards are expected to be attained by
the end of the variance period or the attainable use cannot be reliably determined.
(b) The variance applies to specific parameters and all other applicable standards
remain in effect for the water body.
(c) The modification must be consistent with the requirements of federal regulations
(currently 40 C.F.R. 131.14).
(d) Reasonable progress must be made toward meeting the underlying standards
during the variance period.
(e) A variance renewal may be considered if the renewal request meets the above
conditions.
(2) Types of variances. Upon request or on its own initiative, the department will consider
granting the following types of variances to existing water quality standards:
(a) An individualvariance is a time-limited designated use and parameter-specific
change to the standard(s) of the receiving water body for a specific discharger. The
temporary standard(s) only apply at the point(s) of compliance for the individual facility.
(b) A multidischarger variance is a time-limited designated use and parameter-specific
change to the standard(s) of any water body that receives discharges from a permitted
facility defined within the scope of the multidischarger variance. Any permitted
discharger that is defined within the scope of the variance may be covered under the
variance that is granted by the department, provided all requirements of the variance for
that discharger are met.
(c) A water body variance is a time-limited designated use and parameter-specific
change to the standard(s) for a stretch of waters. Any discharger of the specific
parameter that is defined within the geographic scope of the water body variance may
be covered under the variance that is granted by the department, provided all
requirements of the variance for that discharger are met.
(3) Requirements. Any entity initiating a variance request or applying for coverage for an
individual, multidischarger, or water body variance must submit the following information to the
department:
(a) The pollutant-specific criteria and designated use(s) proposed to be modified by the
variance, and the proposed duration of the variance.
Page 55
(b) A demonstration that attaining the water quality standard for a specific pollutant is
not feasible for the requested duration of the variance based on 40 C.F.R. 131.14.
(c) An evaluation of treatment or alternative actions that were considered to meet
effluent limits based on the underlying water quality criteria, and a description of why
these options are not technically, economically, or otherwise feasible.
(d) Sufficient water quality data and analyses to characterize receiving and discharge
water pollutant concentrations.
(e) A description and schedule of actions that the discharger(s) proposes to ensure the
underlying water quality standard(s) are met or the highest attainable use is attained
within the variance period. Dischargers are also required to submit a schedule for
development and implementation of a pollutant minimization plan for the subject
pollutant(s).
(f) lf the variance is for a water body or stretch of water, the following information must
also be provided to the department:
(i) The results from a pollutant source assessment that quantifies the
contribution of pollution from permitted sources and nonpermitted sources;
(ii) All cost-effective and reasonable best management practices for permitted
sources that address the pollutant the variance is based upon; and
(iii) Best management practices for nonpermitted sources that meet the
requirements of chapter 90.48 RCW.
(g) Any additional information the department deems necessary to evaluate the
application.
(4) Public review and notification. The decision to grant a variance is a formal rule making
subject to a public and intergovernmental involvement process.
(a) The department will provide notice of the proposed variance and consult with lndian
tribes or other states that have jurisdiction over adjacent and downstream waters of the
proposed variance.
(b) The department shall maintain and make publicly available a list of dischargers that
are covered under the variances that are in effect.
(5) Period during which the variance is in effect. A variance is a time-limited designated
use and criterion.
(a) Each variance will be granted for the minimum time estimated to meet the underlying
standard(s) or, if during the period of the variance it is determined that a designated use
cannot be attained, then a use attainability analysis (WAC 173-201A-440\ will be
initiated.
(b) The ability to apply a variance in permits or other actions may be terminated by the
department as a result of a mandatory interim review.
Page 56
(c) Variances are in effect after they have been incorporated into this chapter and
approved by the USEPA.
(6) Contents of a variance. At a minimum a variance adopted into rule will include the
following:
(a) The time period for which the variance is applicable.
(b) The geographic area or specific waters in which the variance is applicable.
(c) A description of the permitted and unpermitted dischargers covered by the variance
(d) ldentification of required actions and a schedule, including any measurable
milestones, for all pollution sources (permitted and unpermitted) subject to the variance
Dischargers are required to use adaptive management to fine-tune and update actions,
schedules, and milestones in order to achieve the goals of the variance.
(e) A provision allowing the department to reopen and modify any permits and to revise
BMP requirements for unpermitted dischargers as a result of the mandatory interim
review of the variance (see subsection (8) of this section).
(7) Variance permit conditions. The department must establish and incorporate into NPDES
permits all conditions necessary to implement and enforce an approved variance, including:
(a) Effluent limits that represent currently achieved or achievable effluent conditions, or
effluent limits that are sufficient to meet the underlying water quality standard upon
expiration of the variance;
(b) Monitoring and reporting requirements; and
(c) A provision allowing the department to reopen and modify the permits based on the
mandatory interim review of the variance.
(8) Mandatory interim review. The department will conduct an interim review of each
variance at least once every five years after the variance is adopted and approved to determine
that conditions of the variance are being met and to evaluate whether the variance is still
necessary.
(a) Review process for individual discharger and multidischarger variances:
(i) The review shall be coordinated with the public review process of the permit
renewal if the variance is being implemented in a permit.
(ii) The review will be focused on the discharger's compliance with permit
conditions that are required by the variance as well as an evaluation of whether
the variance is still necessary.
(b) Review process for water body variances
(i) Variances for stretches of waters will be reviewed in a public process
conducted by the department every five years after the variance is adopted into
this chapter and approved by the USEPA.
Page 57
(ii) The review will evaluate whether the variance is still necessary, any new
information on sources of the pollutant that indicates that reductions could be
made that would allow water quality standards to be met in a shorter time frame,
as well as any new information that indicates water quali$ improvements may
require more time.
(c) A variance that applies to a permit will be shortened or terminated if the review
determines that:
(i) The conditions and requirements of the variance and associated permit
requirements have not been complied with unless reasons outside the control of
the discharger prevented meeting any condition or requirement; or
(ii) Water quality standards could be met in a shorter time frame, based on new
information submitted to the department.

Site-specifi c criteria.
(1) Where the attainable condition of existing and designated uses for the water body would be
fully protected using an alternative criterion, site-specific criteria may be adopted.
(a) The site-specific criterion must be consistent with the federal regulations on
designating and protecting uses (currently40 CFR 131.10 and 131.11); and
(b) The decision to approve a site-specific criterion must be subject to a public
involvement and intergovernmental coordination process.

Use attainability analysis.
(1) Removal of a designated use for a water body assigned in this chapter must be based on a
use attainability analysis (UAA). A UAA is a structured scientific assessment of the factors
affecting the attainment of the use which may include physical, chemical, biological, and
economic factors. A use can only be removed through a UAA if it is not existing or attainable.
(2) A UAA proposing to remove a designated use on a water body must be submitted to the
department in writing and include sufficient information to demonstrate that the use is neither
existing nor attainable.
(3) A UAA must be consistent with the federal regulations on designating and protecting uses
(currently 40 CFR 131 .10).
(4) Subcategories of use protection that reflect the lower physical potential of the water body for
protecting designated uses must be based upon federal regulations (currently 40 CFR
1 31 .10(c)).
(5) Allowing for seasonal uses where doing so would not harm existing or designated uses
occurring in that or another season must be based upon federal regulations (currently 40 CFR
131.10(0).
(6) After receiving a proposed UAA, the department will respond within sixty days of receipt
with a decision on whether to proceed toward rule making.
(7) The decision to approve a UAA is subject to a public involvement and intergovernmental
coordination process, including tribal consultation.
(8) The department will maintain a list of federally recognized tribes in the state of Washington.
During all stages of development and review of UAA proposals, the department will provide
notice and consultwith representatives of the interested affected lndian tribes on a government-
to-government basis, and carefully consider their recommendations.
(9) The results of a UAA are not in effect until they have been incorporated into this chapter and
approved by the USEPA.

Water quality offsets.
(1) A water quality offset occurs where a project proponent implements or finances the
implementation of controls for point or nonpoint sources to reduce the levels of pollution for the
purpose of creating sufficient assimilative capacity to allow new or expanded discharges. The
purpose of water quality offsets is to sufficiently reduce the pollution levels of a water body so
that a proponent's actions do not cause or contribute to a violation of the requirements of this
chapter and so that they result in a net environmental benefit. Water quality offsets may be
Page 59
used to assist an entity in meeting load allocations targeted under a pollution reduction analysis
(such as a total maximum daily load) as established by the department. Water quality offsets
may be used to reduce the water quality effect of a discharge to levels that are unmeasurable
and in compliance with the water quality antidegradation Tier ll analysis (WAC 173-201A-320\.
(2) Water quality offsets may be allowed by the department when all of the following conditions
are met:
(a) Water quality offsets must target specific water quality parameters.
(b) The improvements in water quality associated with creating water quality offsets for
any proposed new or expanded actions must be demonstrated to have occurred in
advance of the proposed action.
(c) The technical basis and methodology for the water quality offsets is documented
through a technical analysis of pollutant loading, and that analysis is made available for
review by the department. The methodology must incorporate the uncertainties
associated with any proposed point or nonpoint source controls as well as variability in
effluent quality for sources, and must demonstrate that an appropriate margin of safety is
included. The approach must clearly account for the attenuation of the benefits of
pollution controls as the water moves to the location where the offset is needed.
(d) Point or nonpoint source pollution controls must be secured using binding legal
instruments between any involved parties for the life of the project that is being offset.
The proponent remains solely responsible for ensuring the success of offsetting activities
for both compliance and enforcement purposes.
(e) Only the proportion of the pollution controls which occurs beyond existing
requirements for those sources can be included in the offset allowance.
(f) Water quality offsets must meet antidegradation requirements in WAC 173-2014-300
through 173-2014-330 and federal antibacksliding requirements in CFR 122.44(l).

173-201A460
lntake credits
(1) General provisions. The following provisions apply to the consideration of intake credits in
determining reasonable potential and establishing water quality based effluent limits (WQBELS).
(a) An "intake pollutant" is the amount of a pollutant that is present in waters of the state
(including groundwater except as provided in (c) of this subsection) at the time water is
removed from the same body of water by the discharger or other facility supplying the
discharger with intake water.
(b) An intake pollutant must be from the "same body of water" as the discharge in order
to be eligible for an intake credit. An intake pollutant is considered to be from the "same
body of water" as the discharge if the department finds that the intake pollutant would
have reached the vicinity of the outfall point in the receiving water within a reasonable
Page 60
period had it not been removed by the permittee. This finding will be established if a
d ischarger demonstrates:
(i) The background concentration of the pollutant in the receiving water
(excluding any amount of the pollutant in the facility's discharge) is similar to that
in the intake water, and
(ii) There is a direct hydrological connection between the intake and discharge
points.
(c) An intake pollutant in groundwater partially or entirely due to human activity is not
eligible for use of an intake credit.
(d) V/here intake water for a facility is provided by a municipal water supply system and
the supplier provides treatment of the raw water that removes an intake water pollutant,
the concentration of the intake water pollutant will be determined at the point where the
water enters the water supplier's distribution system.
(e) \Mere a facility discharges intake pollutants from multiple sources that originate
from the receiving water body and from other water bodies, the department may derive
an effluent limit reflecting the flow-weighted amount of each source of the pollutant
provided that conditions in subsection (3) of this section are met and adequate
monitoring to determine compliance can be established and is included in the permit.
(f) The department may also consider other site-specific factors relevant to the transport
and fate of the pollutant to make the finding in a particular case that a pollutant would or
would not have reached the vicinity of the outfall point in the receiving water within a
reasonable period had it not been removed by the permittee.
(2) Gonsideration of intake pollutants in reasonable potential determination.
(a) The department may determine there is no reasonable potential for the discharge of
an identified intake pollutant to cause or contribute to an exceedance of a narrative or
numeric water quality criterion where a discharger demonstrates that all the following
conditions are met:
(i) The facility removes the intake water containing the pollutant from the same
body of water into which the discharge is made;
(ii) The facility does not alter the identified intake pollutant chemically or
physically in a manner that would cause adverse water quality impacts to occur
that would not occur if the pollutant had not been removed from the body of
water;
(iii) The timing and location of the discharge would not cause adverse water
quality impacts to occur that would not occur if the identified intake pollutant had
not been removed from the body of water;
(iv) The facility does not increase the identified intake pollutant concentration at
the edge of the mixing zone, or at the point of discharge if a mixing zone is not
allowed, as compared to the pollutant concentration in the intake water, unless
Page 6l
the increased concentration does not cause or contribute to an excursion above
an applicable water quality standard; and
(v) The facility does not contribute any additional mass of the identified intake
pollutant to its wastewater.
(b) Upon a finding under (a) of this subsection that an intake pollutant in the discharge
does not cause, have the reasonable potential to cause, or contribute to an exceedance
of an applicable water quality standard, the department is not required to include a water
quality-based effluent limit for the identified intake pollutant in the facility's permit.
(3) Consideration of intake pollutants in establishing water quality based effluent limits.
(a) This subsection applies only when the ambient background concentration of the
intake pollutant does not meet the most stringent applicable water quality criterion for
that pollutant;
(b) The requirements of subsection (2)(a)(i) and (iv) also apply to this subsection.
(c) A discharger may add mass of the pollutant to its waste stream if an equal or greater
mass is removed prior to discharge, so there is no net addition of the pollutant in the
discharge compared to the intake water.
(d) Where the conditions of this subsection are met, the department may establish
effluent limits using an intake credit. The facility's permit must specify how compliance
with the limits will be assessed.

Achievement considerations.
To fully achieve and maintain the foregoing water quality in the state of Washington, it is the
intent of the department to apply the various implementation and enforcement authorities at its
disposal, including participation in the programs of the federal Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1251
et seq.) as appropriate. lt is also the intent that cognizance will be taken of the need for
participation in cooperative programs with other state agencies and private groups with respect
to the management of related problems. The department's planned program for water pollution
control will be defined and revised annually in accordance with section 106 of said federal act.
Further, it shall be required that all activities which discharge wastes into waters within the state,
or otherwise adversely affect the quality of said waters, be in compliance with the waste
treatment and discharge provisions of state or federal law.
[Statutory Authority: Chapters 90.48 and g!! RCW. 03-14-129 (Order 02-'14), recodified as S 173-201A-500, filed 7/1/03, effective 8/1/03.

173-2014-510
Means of implementation
(1) Permitting. The primary means to be used for controlling municipal, commercial, and
industrial waste discharges shall be through the issuance of waste discharge permits, as
provided for in RCW 90.48.160, 90.48.162, and 90.48.260. Waste discharge permits, whether
issued pursuant to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System or otherwise, must be
conditioned so the discharges authorized will meet the water quality standards. No waste
discharge permit can be issued that causes or contributes to a violation of water quali$ criteria,
except as provided for in this chapter.
(a) Persons discharging wastes in compliance with the terms and conditions of permits
are not subject to civil and criminal penalties on the basis that the discharge violates
water quali$ standards.
(b) Permits must be modified by the department when it is determined that the
discharge causes or contributes to a violation of water quality standards. Major
modification of permits is subject to review in the same manner as the originally issued
permits.
(2) Miscellaneous waste discharge or water quality effect sources. The director shall,
through the issuance of regulatory permits, directives, and orders, as are appropriate, control
miscellaneous waste discharges and water quality effect sources not covered by subsection (1)
of this section.
Page 63
(3) Nonpoint source and stormwater pollution.
(a) Activities which generate nonpoint source pollution shall be conducted so as to
comply with the water quality standards. The primary means to be used for requiring
compliance with the standards shall be through best management practices required in
waste discharge permits, rules, orders, and directives issued by the department for
activities which generate nonpoint source pollution.
(b) Best management practices shall be applied so that when all appropriate
combinations of individual best management practices are utilized, violation of water
quality criteria shall be prevented. lf a discharger is applying all best management
practices appropriate or required by the department and a violation of water quality
criteria occurs, the discharger shall modify existing practices or apply further water
pollution control measures, selected or approved by the department, to achieve
compliance with water quality criteria. Best management practices established in
permits, orders, rules, or directives of the department shall be reviewed and modified, as
appropriate, so as to achieve compliance with water quality criteria.
(c) Activities which contribute to nonpoint source pollution shall be conducted utilizing
best management practices to prevent violation of water quality criteria. When
applicable best management practices are not being implemented, the department may
conclude individual activities are causing pollution in violation of RCW 90.48.080. ln
these situations, the department may pursue orders, directives, permits, or civil or
criminal sanctions to gain compliance with the standards.
(d) Activities which cause pollution of stormwater shall be conducted so as to comply
with the water quality standards. The primary means to be used for requiring
compliance with the standards shall be through best management practices required in
waste discharge permits, rules, orders, and directives issued by the department for
activities which generate stormwater pollution. The consideration and control
procedures in (b) and (c) of this subsection apply to the control of pollutants in
stormwater.
(4) General allowance for compliance schedules.
(a) Permits and orders issued by the department for existing discharges may include a
schedule for achieving compliance with effluent limits and water quality standards that
apply to:
(i) Aquatic life uses; and
(ii) Uses other than aquatic life
(b) Schedules of compliance shall be developed to ensure final compliance with all
water quality-based effluent limits and the water quality standards as soon as possible.
The department will decide whether to issue schedules of compliance on a case-by-case
basis. Schedules of compliance may not be issued for new discharges. Examples of
schedules of compliance that may be issued include:
(i) Construction of necessary treatment capability;
(ii) lmplementation of necessary best management practices;
Page 64
(iii) lmplementation of additional stormwater best management practices for
discharges determined not to meet water quality standards following
implementation of an initial set of best management practices; and
(iv) Completion of necessary water quality studies related to implementation of
permit requirements to meet effluent limits.
(c) For the period of time during which compliance with water quality standards is
deferred, interim effluent limits shall be formally established, based on the best
professionaljudgment of the department. lnterim effluent limits may be numeric or
nonnumeric (e.9., construction of necessary facilities by a specified date as contained in
an order or permit), or both.
(d) Prior to establishing a schedule of compliance, the department shall require the
discharger to evaluate the possibility of achieving water quality standards via
nonconstruction changes (e.9., facility operation, pollution prevention). Schedules of
compliance shall require compliance with the specified requirements as soon as
possible. Compliance schedules shall generally not exceed the term of any permit
unless the department determines that a longer time period is needed to come into
compliance with the applicable water quality standards.
(e) When an approved total maximum daily load has established waste load allocations
for permitted dischargers, the department may authorize a compliance schedule longer
than ten years if:
(i) The permittee is not able to meet its waste load allocation in the TMDL solely
by controlling and treating its own effluent;
(ii) The permittee has made significant progress to reduce pollutant loading
during the term of the permit;
(iii) The permittee is meeting all of its requirements under the TMDL as soon as
possible; and
(iv) Actions specified in the compliance schedule are sufficient to achieve water
quality standards as soon as possible.
(5) Compliance schedules for dams:
(a) All dams in the state of Washington must comply with the provisions of this chapter
(b) For dams that cause or contribute to a violation of the water quality standards, the
dam owner must develop a water quality attainment plan that provides a detailed
strategy for achieving compliance. The plan must include:
(i) A compliance schedule that does not exceed ten years;
(ii) ldentification of all reasonable and feasible improvements that could be used
to meet standards, or if meeting the standards is not attainable, then to achieve
the highest attainable level of improvement;
Page 65
(iii) Any department-approved gas abatement plan as described in WAC 173-
20'tA-200 (1xD(ii);
(iv) Analytical methods that will be used to evaluate all reasonable and feasible
improvements;
(v) Water quality monitoring, which will be used by the department to track the
progress in achieving compliance with the state water quality standards; and
(vi) Benchmarks and reporting sufficient for the department to track the
applicant's progress toward implementing the plan within the designated time
period.
(c) The plan must ensure compliance with all applicable water quality criteria, as well as
any other requirements established by the department (such as through a total
maximum daily load, or TMDL, analysis).
(d) lf the department is acting on an application for a water quality certification, the
approved water quality attainment plan may be used by the department in its
determination that there is reasonable assurance that the dam will not cause or
contribute to a violation of the water quality standards.
(e) When evaluating compliance with the plan, the department will allow the use of
models and engineering estimates to approximate design success in meeting the
standards.
(f) lf reasonable progress toward implementing the plan is not occurring in accordance
with the designated time frame, the department may declare the project in violation of
the water quality standards and any associated water quality certification.
(g) lf an applicable water quality standard is not met by the end of the time provided in
the attainment plan, or after completion of all reasonable and feasible improvements, the
owner must take the following steps:
(i) Evaluate any new reasonable and feasible technologies that have been
developed (such as new operational or structural modifications) to achieve
compliance with the standards, and develop a new compliance schedule to
evaluate and incorporate the new technology;
(ii) After this evaluation, if no new reasonable and feasible improvements have
been identified, then propose an alternative to achieve compliance with the
standards, such as site specific criteria (WAC 173-201A-430), a use attainability
analysis (WAC 173-2014-440\, or a water quality offset (WAC 173-2014-450).
(h) New dams, and any modifications to existing facilities that do not comply with a gas
abatement or other pollution control plan established to meet criteria for the water body,
must comply with the water quality standards at the time of project completion.
(i) Structural changes made as a part of a department approved gas abatement plan to
aid fish passage, described in WAC 173-201A-200 (lXfxii), may result in system
performance limitations in meeting water quality criteria for that parameter at other times
of the year.

(6) Combined sewer overflow treatment plant. The influent to these facilities is highly
variable in frequency, volume, duration, and pollutant concentration. The primary means to be
used for requiring compliance with the human health criteria shall be through the application of
narrative limitations which include, but are not limited to, best management practices required in
waste discharge permits, rules, orders and directives issued by the department.

1. Temperature shall not exceed a 1-DMax of 20.0"C due to human activities. When natural conditions exceed a 1-DMax of 20.0"C, no
temperature increase will be allowed which will raise the receiving water temperature by greater than 0.3"C; nor shall such temperature
increases, at any time, exceed t=34/(T + 9).
2. The following two notes apply:
(a) Below Clearwater River (river mile 139.3). Temperature shall not exceed a 1-DMax of 20.0'C due to human activities. When natural
conditions exceed a 1-DMax of 20.0'C, no temperature increase will be allowed which will raise the receiving water temperature by greater
than 0.3"C; nor shall such temperature increases, at any time, exceed t = 34/(T + 9). Special condition - special fish passage exemption as
described in WAC 173-2014-200 (1)(0
(b) Above Clearwater River (river mile 139.3). Temperature shall not exceed a 1-DMax of 20.0'C due to human activities. When natural
conditions exceed a 1-DMax of 20.0'C, no temperature increases will be allowed which will raise the receiving water temperature by greater
than 0.3'C; nor shall such temperature increases, at any time, exceed 0.3"C due to any single source or 1.1"C due to all such activities
combined.

RE: PORT LUDLOW DEVELOPMENT IMPACT MONITORING,2016
Attached is the trventy-third annual Port Ludlow Development Impact Monitoring report. The program
monitors ceftain impacts of new residential sub-divisions in Port Ludlow as studied in Port Ludlow
Developqlen! Program - Fina,l Er-ryi{onmental Impapt Stabment, Apri! 1993 ("the EIS"). There are no
notable differences between the 2016 and recent years' reports.
GENIRAL. The following plats are the subject of this report: Edgewood, Ludlow Bay Village, Ludlow Cove
1&2, Ludlow Point 4, Oak Bay Short Plat Olympic Terrace 1&2, Port LudlowNo. 7, Timberton,
Marina View Terrace, & Woodridge.o There are now 285 houses built on the397 lots that have been developed in the subject plats since the
EIS was adopted. There were fourteen new residences constructed in 2016 areas and includes the
new model home in Olympic Terrace 2.
SCHOOLSo In 2016 there were five resident students in PLA post-EIS sub-divisions for a Student Generation
Ratio (SGR) of .02 students per household, The EIS predicted a .06 SGR compared to a district-wide
SGR of .3 I . There were I 02 students in other areas of the Master Planned Resort (MPR).
FIBE/Er\@RpEN cY MEPTCAT. The table below details the Fire District calls in 2016. For comparison, these volumes were similar to
those in 20 I 5 when there were 44 cal ls within post-EIS plats and 3 2 I in the other MPR areas . The
last two years both exceed the number of calls in 2014.

qRouNp W.{TERo The l8 wells in the monitoring nerwork provide comprehensive coverage of all aquifers that serve the
Port Ludlow MPR. In genoral, all wells in the network show seasonal variations.
Total Annual production in 20 l6 was similar to 20 l5 (324 acre-feet oompared to 323 acre-feet)
however remains lower than the 2007 production high of 359 acre-feet.
South Aquifer production was up in 2015 and 2016 (220 acre-feetand225 acre-feet respectively)
which is also an increase from the previous eight-year average. The static water levels have shown a
slight declining trend in recent years, likely in response to the increased in production from the
aquifer as a whole,
Overall, static water levels in the South Aquifer wells have declined approximately eight feet since
monitoring began in the early 1990s. This declining trend is not considered significant or detrimental
to the resource.
Water quality results show that water chemistry has rernained relatively stable in all aquifers. There
are no indications of saltwater intrusion for any of the wells in the monitoring network.
REqETVTNG -TWATER QITALTTY (NON-POTNI S OpBCES)e Rece iving waters are defined as the waters of Ludlow Bay that receive water flow draining from the
upland watershed. Flow from several locations is sampled and analyzed for constituents such as pH,
dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform, and turbidity to look for hends that could signal degradation of the
bay water quality.
o Base-flow monitoring was conducted monthly from July through October.
The 2016 data is consistent with previous studies. The water quality of the Port Ludlow tibutaries
remains excellent with no apparent issues to report.
WASTEWATER TREATMENTr There were 1,483 residential wastewater customers at the end of 2016.
Maximum month average daily flow occuned in March at 293,000 gallons per day (gpd) as compared
to the permitted flow of 320,000 gallons per day.
a
a
a
r For the year, Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) averaged 15 parts per million compared to a
permit limit of 30; Total Suspended Solids (TSS) averaged l3 parts per million compared to a permit
limit of 30; Fecal Coliform averaged 6 organisms per 100 milliliters compared to a permit limit of
200.

Prepared for: Port Ludlow Associates
Port Ludlow Baseflow Monitoring -20t6
Baseflow monitoring of the Port Ludlow watershed was conducted monttrly at eight stations for the
July through October period. Measurements were taken of flow, temperature, pH, conductivity,
dissolved oxygen, fecal coliforms, and turbidity,
The data are attached in Table I which includes the 2016 means and standard deviations as well as the
long term means and standard deviations of May through October data collected from 1989 to2012.
Most of the 2016 means are within one standard deviation of the long term means. PH at the Ludlow
Bay Road Detention Pond outlet and in Ludtow Creek were slightly more than one standard deviation
higher than the long term mean but still within the normal range for ambient water. There was very
little rainfall during the study period in 2016 which could account for the difference as rainwater tends
to have a lower PH than groundwater. The conductivity at North Bay Creek was also slightly greater
than one standard deviation above the long-term mean.
Other than these anomalies caused by differences in the sampling periods the data is consistent with
previous studies. The water quality of the Port Ludlow tributaries remains excellent with no apparent
issues to report.

lntroduction
As a condition of plat approval, Jefferson County required that Port Ludlow Associates, LLC,
with their subsidiary company Olympic Water & Sewer, lnc. (OWSI, formerly Ludlow Water
Company), conduct a groundwater-resource monitoring program. To that end, Robinson Noble
was retained by OWSI to develop, conduct, and supervise this program. The program was initi-
ated in April 1994 with the contacting of possible participants. The monitoring program concen-
trates on the North and South Aquifers (described below)and encompasses the area presumed
to overlie these aquifers as well as a substantial area surrounding each aquifer. The current
groundwater-monitoring network is comprised of 18 wells owned and maintained by six sepa-
rate participants including OWSI.
The goal o{ the monitoring program is to detect potential impacts to the area aquifers through
the development of a long-term hydrologic record, To accomplish this, five basic parameters
are monitored throughout each monitoring year: 1) static water levels, 2) pumping water levels,
3) production, 4) water quality, and 5) precipitation. Static and pumping water levels are meas-
ured at various intervals at each of the sites, Water levels in wells operated by OWSI are typi-
cally measured bi-monthly during the summer months and once a month during the rest of the
year. Water levels in the other wells in the monitoring network are typically measured on a
quarterly basis, Production from OWSI wells is consistently tracked and recorded throughout
the year. Production volumes from each of the other wells in the network are recorded where
available. Water quality measurements are made on an annual basis, The primary focus of wa-
ter quality monitoring is to decipher potential seawater-intrusion trends, and analyses are,
therefore, limited to chloride and conductivity, Precipitation is measured both at the OWSI of-
fice in the northern part of the basin and atWell 13 in the south (see Figure'l), Precipitation is
also tracked for the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) gago at
Chimacum, located just outside the study area to the northwest.
Sig n ificant Monitori ng Netwo rk Mod ifications
ln 2005, OWSI completed construction of two new production wells in the South Aquifer,
These new wells, constructed to replace a declining production at Well 13, are designated as
Wells 15 and 16. Presently, Wells 13 and 15 are not being utilized for production. Well 16 has
been on line since July 2008, and together with Well 14, are OWSI's primary sources of pro-
duction for the South Aquifer (see Port Ludlow Area Aquifers below). Wells 13, 14, 15, and 16
are all currently being rnonitored.
Port Ludlow Area Aquifers
Over the past several decades, Robinson Noble has conducted a number of studies in the Port
Ludlow area to evaluate the extent and nature of groundwater resources. ln one of our earlier
reports (Robinson & Noble, 1987), four principal aquifers were identified and designated the
North, South, South Valley, and Well 1 Aquifers. These four aquifers were defined using differ-
ing methods dependent on the type and amount of information available. A detailed explanation
Robinson Noble, lnc.1 685-0058 Page 1
of the methods used can be found in Appendix E of the Port Ludlow Development Program
ElS. The approximate boundaries of the four area aquifers and the locations of the wells that
currently comprise the monitoring network are shown on Figure 1.
ldentification of Monitoring Wells
When the monitoring network was initially established, a preliminary list of wells was selected
to provido comprehensive coverage of the area aquifers. This initial list included most of the
OWSI wells, production wells operated by other nearby water purveyors, and several privately
owned domestic wells located in areas of specific concern. Where well owners on the prelimi-
nary list (including some major water purveyors) declined to participate, alternate wells (mostly
private) were added in their place to try to improve coverage,
Currently, OWSI only withdraws water from tho North and South Aquifers. When initially se-
lecting wells to include in the monitoring network, the completion elevation of the well, and not
simply the location, was a primary consideration. The water company's wells in the North Aqui-
fer are completod from 139 feet above mean sea level (MSL) to 37 feet below MSL, OWSI's
wells in the South Aquifer are completed f rom 12lo 137 feet below MSL.
ln addition to monitoring the North and South Aquifers, the monitoring network includes three
wells owned by OWSI located in and near the South Valley Aquifer. These wells allow long-
term monitoring of the South Valley Aquifer, which currently has no active production wells.
Jefferson County Public Utility District (JCPUD) has an existing monitoring program for wells in
the Shine area. Data from that monitoring program have been obtained when available (water
level data has only been provided for one well since 2007) and included in the Port Ludlow
monitoring network. Table 1 lists all of the wells currently included in the monitoring network.
Discussion of Data Collected
Hydrologic data collected to date for each of the wells are discussed below. Water-level data
for each of the network wells is referenced to an individual measuring point, which is typically
the top of the casing. However. for the purpose of comparison, water-level data for the individ-
ual wells are plotted on similar scales. Specific chloride and conductivity trends for individual
wells are also discussed in each of the following sections. (Note: the State drinking water
standards for chloride and conductivity are 250 mg/l and 700 pmhos/cm, respectively.) Overall
water quality trends, together with rainfall data, are summarized in the two subsequent sec-
tions of this report.

Well 2 (North Aguifer)
Well 2 is one of three OWSI production wells located in the North Aquifer (the others, Wells 3
and 4N, are discussed in the following two sections). The static and pumping water levels and
annual production for Well 2 are presented in Figure 2.Ihe water{evel data show seasonal
trends (short-term annual pattern) as generally declining in the summer and increasing (recharg-
ing) in the winter. Static water-level fluctuations in Well 2 during 2016 were typicalof previous
years, ranging between 87.00 and 101,00 feet below the measuring point (bmp1.
Page 2 1685-0058 Robinson Noble, lnc.
Table 1 : Current list of wells in the Port Ludlow area monitorin ram
Fluctuations in the long-term water-level pattern for Well 2 appear to be rnfluenced by both
changes in precipitation and well production. Although difficult to quantify precisely, the long-
term record indicates that production is the dominant factor, As illustrated by the data present-
ed in Figure 2, a progressive increase in production for the period between 200i and 2007 cor-
responds with a progressive water level decline over the same period of time (precipitation
over this period was relatively stable), The dominant influence of production on Well 2 is further
illustrated by the signif icant decrease in production f rom levels seen in 2005 - 2007 (averaging
between 45 and 50 gpm) and recently, with annual averages from 15 to 30 gpm from 2008 to
2014, and a corresponding water-level trend increase over the same period (again with relative-
ly stable precipitation). Over the past two years, water levels in Well 2 show a flattening to
slightly decreasing trend that appears to correspond with a slight increase in production over
recent years.
Long-term monitoring over the past several decades has shown an increasing loss of efficiency
at Well 2, which was verified with pumping tests conducted in 2004. Well 2 cannot be rohabili-
tated because of obstructions in the well, Well 2 was equipped with a new pump in 2004,
which was set with the intake at a lower level to try to compensate for the decreasing efficien-
cy. However, the new pump, which has a higher instantaneous production rate than the previ-
ous pump, exacerbated the declining efficiency problem. A comparison of pumping water lev-
els between 2003 and 2008 (when annual production rates were similar) shows that approxi-
mately 30 additionalfeet of drawdown were induced using the new pump with no correspond-
ing increase in production. Since 2008, OWSI has continued to maintain signifrcantly lower pro-
duction levels from Well 2, and as a conssquence, the declining efficiency appears to have
slowed. Continued operation of Well 2 at reduced production rates will likely extend the service
life of the well until it can eventually be replaced.

Water quality results from Well 2 show that chloride and conductivity have been variable
throughout the history of the well, with an overall slightly increasing conductivity trend and a
relatively stable chloride trend. Although conductivity concentrations appear to bo increasing
slightly, they are still well below the drinking water limit, and in the absence of an increasing
chloride trend, this is not indicative of seawater intrusion. Chloride concentrations in this well
have ranged from 3.7 to 11.0 mgl, and conductivity has ranged from'108to 206 pmhos/cm. No
new water quality data were recorded for 2016.
Well 3 (Nonh Aquifer)
The static and pumping water levels and annual production for OWSI's Well 3 are presented in
Figure 3. Like Well 2, the water-level data show the short-term seasonal trends as generally
declining in the summer and recharging in the winter. Static water levels in Wetl 3 during 2016
were within the typical range of previous years, with only minor f luctuations between 167,1,2
and 167.35 feet bmp.
As with Well 2, the long-range water-level pattern for Well 3 indicates that there is a dominant
response to production and a less pronounced response to precipitation at this site. Figure 3
shows, that between 1980 and present, static and pumping water levels in Well 3 decline and
rise proportionately with corresponding changes in the annual production. As with Well 2, re-
ductions in production, starting in 2007, have resulted in a continued rise of water levels at the
Well3 s[te. Well3 has only been used minimally for production between 2014 and the present,
and correspondingly, water levels have continued to rise. Static and pumping water levels also
parallel one another over the period of record, indicating there has been no appreciable efficien-
cy loss at this well,
Water quality results from Well3 show that the chloride and conductivity have been relatively
stable (based on water quality records dating back to 1986), Since 1986, chloride concentra-
tions have ranged from 2.0 to 9,9 rng/land conductivity has ranged from 155 to 292 ;rmhos/cm.
No new water quality data were recorded for 2016.
Well 4N (North Aquifer)
Well 4N is the third of the three active OSWI wells located in the North Aquifer. Water-level
and production information for Well 4N are presented in Figure 4. The short-term water-level
pattern for Well 4N exhibits considerably higher seasonal variation than either the Well 2 or
Well 3 sites. During 2016, the static water level in Well 4N ranged f rom 175.21 lo 201 .41 feet
bmp, which is generally within the typical range for this woll site. The exacl cause of this higher
seasonalfluctuation is not completely understood, but it appears that Well4N is more sensitive
in the short term to changes in precipitation.
Despite this higher seasonal fluctuation. the long-range water-level pattern for Well 4N, like
Wells 2 and 3, indicates there is a dominant response to production. The waterlevel trends
presented in Figure 4 show that levels decline and rise proportionately with corresponding in-
creases and decreases in production. As with the Well 2 and 3 sites, reductions in the produc-
tion rate at Well 4 starting around 2008 resulted in a rise of water levels at this site. Relatively
constant production at this site from 2010 to present corresponds with a relatively stoady water
level trend over the same period, Static and pumping water levels generally parallel one another
but show a slight divergence starting in about 2009 (indicating the well may be starting to lose
some efficiency).
Water quality results from Well 4N show that the chloride and conductivity have been stable
throughout the history of the well with records dating back to 1980, The chloride concentra-
Page 4 168S0058 Bobinson Noble, lnc.
tions have been consistently less than 5 mg/l and the conductivity has ranged from 149 to 209
pmhos/cm. No new water quality data were recorded for 2016.
Well 44 (South Valley Aquifer)
Well 44 is an inactive well completed in the South Valloy Aquifer. A hydrograph for the well is
presented on Figure 5. ln 2016, water levels measured in Well44 were at or above the top of
the casing, which is consistent with historical levels.
Limited water quality results for this well show the chloride concentrations have ranged from
5.0 to 6.5 mg/l and the conductivity has ranged from 165 to 310 pmhos/cm, The South Valley
aquifer is not currently utilized for production, and new water quality data have not been rec-
orded since 1995.
Well 9 (South Valley Aquifer)
Well 9 is another inactive well completed in the South Valley Aquifer. lts hydrograph is present-
ed on Figure 6. ln 2016, water levels measured in Well 9 ranged from 5,94 to 7.63 feet bmp.
This is within ranges from previous years, which show a stable trend since monitoring of the
wellbegan in 1994.
Limited water quality results show the chloride concentration has ranged f rom 4.8 to 9.0 mg/
and the conductivity has ranged from 150 to245 pmhos/cm, Again, this aqurfer is not currently
being utilized for production, and new water quality data has not been recorded since 1996,
Well 12 (South Valley Aquifer)
Well 12 is also an inactive well completed in the South Valley Aquifer. A hydrograph for Well 12
is presented on Figure 7 . ln 2016, water levels in Well 12 ranged f rom 2.30 to 7.31 feet bmp.
This is consistent with historical levels, though the highest water level was slightly higher than
other annual highs on record,
Limited water quality results show that the chloride concentration has ranged from 3 0 to 5.0
mg/l and the conductivity has ranged lrom77 to 120 pmhos/cm. New water quality data has
not been recorded for this well since 1988, prior to the initiation of the monitoring program.
Well 13 (South Aquifer)
Well 13 is one of four OWSI wells located in the South Aquifer (the others, Wells 14, 15, and
16, are discussed in the three subsequent sections). Presently, Well 13 is not being utilized for
production, but because the well provides a good "non-pumping" observation point for the
South Aquifer, it is still being monitored.
Figure B presents the water level and past production data for Well i3. Similar to the wells in
the North Aquifer, the water-level data for Well 13 show the short-term seasonal trends as
generally declining in the summer and recharging in the winter. The magnitude of the seasonal
fluctuation, however, is typically less in the South Aquifer wells than it is in the North Aquifer
wells, which is expected since the South Aquifer occurs at a much greater depth, ln 2016, the
static water level in Well 13 ranged from 370.50 to 379.81 feet bmp, which is within the norrnal
historical range,
The long-range water-level pattern for Well 13 (after '1994) shows that static water levels re-
mained relatively stable through 2QO2 and then declined slightly between 2003 and 2008. Be-
tween 2009 and 2011, the static water levels in Well 13 show a slightly more pronounced de-
Robinson Noble, lnc.1685-0058 Page 5
cline and then appear to stabilize again through the present. The pronounced decline observed
between 2009 and 2011 is likely associated with the initiation of production from adjacent Well
16, which was put into service in 2008. A similar trend is also observed at OWSI's other South
Aquifer wells (Wells 14, 15, and 16),
Water quality results from Well 13 show that, throughout the history of the well, the chloride
concentration has been fairly steady and conductivity has been slightly increasing, Despite the
apparent increasing trend for conductivity, levels are well below the drinking water limit, and in
the absence of an increasing chloride trend, are not indicative of seawater intrusion. Records
dating back to 1983 show the chloride concentration has ranged from 3.9 to 5,9 mg/land con-
ductivity has ranged f rom 138 to 206 pmhos/cm. As Well 13 is inactive, additional water quality
data has not been collected since 2006.
Welt 14 (South Aquifer)
Figure I presents the water-level and production data f or Well '14. Similar to Well 13, the short-
term seasonal trends at Well 14 are generally declining in the summer and recharging in the
winter. Again, the seasonal fluctuation observed at Well 14 (being completed in the deeper
South Aquifer) is also comparatively less than that observed in the OWSI wells completed in
the North Aquifer. ln 2016, the static water level in Well i4 ranged from 378,59 to 380.95 feet
bmp, which is within the normal historical range for annual fluctuations, though the lowest wa-
ter level was slightly lower than others in the record.
OWSI is currently using Well '14 for production. However, with the utilization of Well '16 starting
in 2008, production volumes from Well 14 have been reduced significantly since that time. As
shown in Figure 9, historical production volumes from Well 14 increased steadily from 1993 to
2008. The static water level in Well '14 also declined at a relatively steady rate over this same
period, likely in response to the increasing production from the site. After 2008. annual produc-
tion volumes lrom Well l4 have been a third to half of the average rate observed prior to 2008.
ln response to this decreased production, static water levels appear to have leveled off be-
tween 2008 and 20'15. However, the static water levels measured in Well '14 during 2016 ap
pear to be slightly lower than recent years, which may reflect the effects of increased produc-
tion from the South Aquifer as a whole (combined production from Wells'14 and 16)that has
occurred over the past several years. Pumping water levels also decreased after 2008 in appar-
ent response to the reduced production over this period (disregarding a number of exceptionally
low, off-trend pumping levels that appear to be in error).
Water quality results f rom Well 14, which date back to '1 993, show that both the chloride con-
centration and conductivity have remained relatively stable. Chloride values have ranged be-
tween 0.3 and 7.9 mg/|. Conductivity has ranged from 141 to 200 ;rmhos/cm. Chloride and
conductivity were 4,'l mg/l and 175 pmhos/cm, respectively in 20'16.
Well 15 (South Aquifer)
Well 1 5 was constructed in 2005 approximately 1,000 feet north of Wells 1 3 and 14 to replace
declining production at Well 13. However, because of water quality issues related to arsenic
and hydrogen sulfide, the well has not yat been utilized for production, OWSI may eventually
put this well into service as demand dictates and treatment techniques become more econom-
ical. Because Well 15 is not currently utilized for production, it provides a good non-pumping
observation point for the South Aquifer,
Figure 10 presents the hydrograph of Well 15, Although not as well documented, the seasonal
fluctuation in this well appears to generally be similar to thoso in the othor South Aquifer wells.
Page 6 1 685-0058 Robinson Noble, lnc.
During 2016, staticwater levels in Well 15 ranged between 409.07 and 410.53 feet bmp, which
is within the expected seasonal range for the aquifer.
The long-term water-level data recorded to date for this well show that static water levels were
relatively stable between 2005 and 2008 (prior to Well 16 being brought on{ine). Then between
2008 and 2010, the static water level in Well 15 declined approximately two feet, likely in re-
sponse to sustained production at Well 16. The static water-level trend from 2010 to present
appears to be relatively stable with a slight declining trend over the past couple of years (simi-
larly as described above for Well 14). The slight declining trend observed for the recent data
may again be related to increased production from the South Aquifer as a whole (combined
production from Wells 14 and 16) that has occurred over the past several years. Well 15 pro-
vides an excellent monitoring point for the South Aquifer, but the water-level record is still fairly
limited. lt is, therefore, recommended that Well 15 continue to be monitored regularly on a
monthly basis along with the other OWSI source wells. This well would also be a good candi-
date location for deploying an electronic data logger.
Water quality results obtained during the initial testing of Well 15 in 2005 indicated a chloride
concentration of 4 mg/l and a conductivity of 184 ;rmhos/cm. No new water quality data havo
been recorded at this well since 2005.
Well 16 (South Aquifer)
Well 16 is located approximately 100 feet southeast of Well 13, and along with Well 1 5, was
completed in 2005 to replace declining production at Well 13, OWSI completed construction of
the infrastructure associated with Well '16 in mid-2008, and the well has been in service since
that time.
Figure 1 'l presents the hydrograph of Well '16, OWSI began monitoring Well 16 in 2008 when it
was put into regular service, The static water-level measurements presented on Figure 11 indi-
cate a similar range and seasonal fluctuation pattern in Well 16 as the other wells in the South
Aquifer (genarally declining in the summer and recharging in the winter). During 2016, static
water levels in Well 16 ranged between 380.63 and 382.07 feet bmp, which is within the typi-
cal range for this and the other OWSI South Aquifer wells.
Since start up in 2008, Well 16 has been one of OWSI's primary production sources and is used
to provide a large portron of OWSI's production. Static water levels measured to date show an
initial decline of about four feet between 2005 and 2009 (projected across absent data), a gen-
erally level trend between 2010 and 2014, and then a slight decline again over the past two
years. As discussed previously, recent static water level data for Wells 14 and '15 show a simi-
lar declining trend, which may be related to the recent increase in production from the South
Aquifer as a whole (combined production from Wells 14 and 16). Currently however, there are
no indications that OWSI is over-pumping the South Aquifer.
Pumping water levels in Well 16 show a decreasing (shallowing) trend between 2009 and 20'1 1,
which corresponds with a decrease in production over this same period. From 2012 through
the present however, pumping water levels in Well '16 show a generally stable to slightly de-
creasing trend over a period of increasing production (this is the opposite effect that would
generally be expected). Because Well 16 is a rolatively new well and is completed in a predom-
inately sand-aquifer, this may be the result of an increase in well efficiency that occurs as fine
sand is drawn out of the aquifer as Well 16 continues to be pumped. lt may be advantageous to
inspect water samples for sand content and/or the reservoir for excess accumulation of sand,
Because Well 16 is completed with a filter-pack, it may also be advantageous at some point to
Robinson Noble, lnc.1685-0058 Page 7
complete a well inspection to insure that the level of the filter pack is not being diminished by
continued development to a point that could potential result in permanent sanding issues. This
may require use of a video camera and/or removal of pumping equipment.
Water quality results obtained during the initial testing of Well 16 in 2005 show the chloride
concentration was 4 *gfl and the conductivity was 169 pmhos/cm, which are well below the
state standards. Water quality testing conducted in 2007 did not detect chloride above laborato-
ry detection limits (20 mg/l) and again showed the conductivity was'l69 pmhos/cm. No new
water quality data has been recorded since 2007.
Other Public and Private Monitoring Wells
Woodruff Well (North Aquifer)
The Woodruff well (owned by Michael and Nancy Hayden-Elaser) is the only private well in the
monitoring network compteted in the North Aquifer. A hydrograph of this well is presented as
Figure 12. Water-level measurements show a regular seasonal pattern similar to OWSI's North
Aquifer wells with declining water levsls in the summer and rising water levels in winter. ln
2016, the water levels in this well ranged from 148.25 to 151,83 feet bmp, which is consistent
with the fluctuation range observed during previous years,
The long-term water-level pattern for this well, especially in recent years, shows a pattern that
is similar to the long-term pattern observed in OWSI's North Aquifer wells. As this is a private
well, presumably with minimal production capacity, it is likely that the long-term waterJevel pat-
tern observed here is primarily a response to pumping at OWSI's North Aquifer wells. The long-
term water-level trend shows a continuous decline between 2001 and 2007 (which corre-
sponds with OWSI's production increases over this same period), followed by a steady in-
crease between 2OO7 and present (again corresponding with OWSI's production reductions).
Water quality analyses show that chloride and conductivity generally follow a steady trend, nei-
ther increasing nor decreasing significantly. Chloride concentrations have ranged from 2,5 to
5.9 mg/|. Conductivity has ranged from 'l52to221pmhos/cm. ln 2016. chloride and conductivi-
ty were measured respectively at 3.2 mg/l and 188 pmhos/cm.
Neault Well (South Aquifer)
The Neault well is located along the northern fringe of the South Aquifer near the shoreline of
Hood CanalatTala Shores. The hydrographforthiswell is presented in Figure 13. As shown on
the hydrograph, water-level measurements for this well are highly variable. This variability is
likely caused by a combination of factors including tidal inf luences, seasonal variation, and
pumping activity. A number of off-trend (extremely low) water level measurements, which are
also included in this variability, certainly represent post-pumping recovering water levels and
not true static levels. The longterm water-level pattern for this well (estimating between the
variations and excluding obvious off-trend measurements) appears to be generally increasing
through 2007 and then relatively stable to present, ln 2016, water levels in this wellranged
from 19.'15 to 38.10 feet bmp and appear to be in the range of previously collected data.
Water quality analyses show that the chloride concentrations, which have ranged f rom 3,9 to
10 mg/, and conductivity, which has ranged from 1851o254 pmhos/cm, have been generally
stable over the course of monitoring. ln 2016, chloride and conductivity were measured respec-
tively at 5.53 mg/l and232 pmhos/cm.
Page B 1 68S00sB Robinson Noble, lnc
Hendrickson Well (South Aquifer)
The Hendrickson well is a private domestic well located in the southern portion of the South
Aquifer near the Shine area, A hydrograph for this well is presented on Figure 14. lt is difficult
to assess tho seasonal water-level pattern for this well based on quarterly measurements, but
it appears to be similar to other wells completed in the South Aquifer. ln 2016, the water levels
in this well ranged f rom 1 65.08 to 166.35 feet bmp, which is within the typical range for this
site. The long-term water-level pattern shows that static water levels were generally stable
through 2001, but then have been declining through the present, though it appears they may
have generally stabilized in the past couple years.
Water quality analyses show that the chloride concentration has ranged from less than 5.0 to
11.8 mgil and have been generally stable, Conductivity has ranged from 139 to 206 pmhos/cm
and, in recent years, has shown a possible slightly increasing trend. ln the absence of an in-
creasing chloride trend, however, this is not indicative of a problem with saltwater intrusion. ln
2016, chloride and conductivity were measured respectively at 4.94 mg/l and 190 pmhos/cm.
Jefferson County Water District #1's Paradise Bay Well (South Aquifer)
The Paradise Bay Well is located in the central portion of the South Aquifer. A hydrograph for
this well is presented in Figure 15. Static water-level and production data were provided for this
well respectively up through 2005, but newer static water-level or production data have not
been provided. Very limited pumping water-level data has been received for this well. For the
period of report, the static waterlevel trend appears to be generally stable and production rela-
tively constant. However, because of the lack of recent data, accurate inferences cannot be
made regarding current impacts to the aquifer in this area.
Water quality analyses for this well show the chloride concentrations have ranged from 1.9 to
5,9 mgil and the conductivity has ranged between '1 16 and 178 pmhos/cm. Both the chloride
and conductivity data show a generally level trend. ln 2016, chloride and conductivity were
measured respectively at 4.34 mg/l and 141 pmhos/cm.
Jefferson County PUD's Monitoring Network Wells (South Aquifer)
Bywater Bay Well 1
This well is located in the southern part of the South Aquif er arca approximately two miles
south of OWSI's South Aquifer wellfield. The water-level and production data received for this
wellfrom Jefferson County PUD is presented on Figure 16. Static water-leveldata have been
provided for the period between 1992 and 2008, but no additional data has been received since
that time. Some limited pumping water level and production data have also boen received for
this well but are not of sufficient duration to be useful for assess long-term trends.
As shown in Figure 16, the initial networkstaticwaterlevel (May 22,19921was 163.6 feet
bmp. Subseguent static water levels then remain relatively constant through 1999, declining
through 2002, and then (with the exception of one off-trend data point recorded in 2007)appear
to generally level off through the remainder of the record. Even with the absence of recent wa-
ter-level data, the lack of comparable trends between this well and those that OWSI operates in
the South Aquifer suggests that Bywater Bay Well 1 is too distant from the OWSI wells to im-
part significant influence on them and vice versa.
Water quality analyses for this well show that chloride concentrations in this well have ranged
from 2,9 to 8.0 mg/land conductivity has ranged from '162 to 250 prmhos/cm. Both the chloride
Robinson Noble, lnc 1 685-0058 Page 9
and conductivity data show a generally level trend over most of the period of record, Water
quality analyses conducted during 2016 roported a chloride concentration of 5.9 mg/land a
conductivity of 216 prmhos/cm.
Bywater Bay Well 2
This well is located in the southeastern part of the South Aquiler just over a mile southeast of
OWSI's South Aquifer wellfield. The waterlevel and production data received from JCPUD for
Bywater Bay Well 2 are presented on Figure 17. Static water-level data have been provided for
the period between 1994 and 2006, and sporadic pumping water-level and production data
have been provided f or the period between 1994 and 2007. As with Bywater Bay Well 1. the
pumping waterJevel and production data received for Bywater Bay Well 2 are not of sufficient
frequency or duration to be useful for accurately assessing long-term trends. No new water-
level or production data has been received since 2007.
As shown in Figure 17, static water levels overall appear to have progressively declined a total
of a few feet between 1994 and 2OO7. As with Bywater Bay Well 1 , even without recent water-
level data, the lack of a comparable static water level trend between Bywater Bay Well 2 and
OWSI's South Aquifer wells suggests that these wells are too distant to significantly influence
one another.
Water quality analyses for this well show that the chloride concentrations have rangod from 5.0
to 19 mg/l and conductivity has rangod from 1 10 to 326 pmhos/cm. Both the chloride and con-
ductivity data for this well show slightly more variability than Bywater Bay Well 1, but still show
a generally leveltrend. Water quality analyses conducted during 2016 reported a chloride con-
centration of 10 mg/l and a conductivity of 265 Umhos/cm. These values are slightly elevated
relative to previous measurements, but are still well below the applicable drinking-water stand-
ards and are not likely indicative of salt-water intrusion.
Shine Plat Well 2 (South Aquifer)
The Shine Plat Well 2 is a community well located outside the identified boundary of the South
Aquifer, near the shoreline of Hood Canal in the Shine area. Figure 18 presents a hydrograph for
this well. As shown, water-level measurements for this wellhave been highly variable, which is
likely caused by pumping activity in both this well and tho nearby Shine Plat Well 1 as well as
tidal fluctuations. However, using the highest recorded water levels for each year, the data
show a generally stable trend from 1995 through 2010 and then possibly a slight decline
through the present,
Water quality analyses for this well show that the chloride concentrations have ranged from 4.2
to 10 mg/l and conductivity has ranged from 183 to 255 pmhos/cm. Both the chloride and con-
ductivity data for this well show a generally level trend. Water quality analyses conducted dur-
ing 2016 reported a chloride concentration of 4.3 mg/l and a conductivity of 238 pmhos/cm.
Hill Well (South Aquifer)
The Hill well is a private domestic well located on the southern fringe of the South Aquifer,
along the shoreline of Hood Canal in the Shine area, A hydrograph for this well is presented in
Figure 19. Water-level measurements for this well show considerable variation. This variation is
likely a result of a combination of factors including pumping activity at the Hill well itself, sea-
sonal variation, and possibly tide f luctuations. However. using the highest water levels meas-
ured each year, the long-torm water-level pattern appears to indicate a declining trend between
'1995 and 2001 and then an overall rising trend through the present.
Page 10 1 685-0058 Robinson Noble, lnc.
Water quality analyses for this well show that the chloride concsntrations have ranged between
24 and 35 mg/ and conductivity has ranged from 339 to 475 pmhos/cm. Both the chloride and
conductivity data for this well show, overall, a slightly declining trend through the present. Wa-
ter quality analyses conducted during 20'16 reported a chloride concentration of 21 ,7 mg/ and a
conductivity of 395 pmhos/cm.
Compared to the other wells in the network, the chloride and conductivity levels measured in
the Hill wellare relatively high and suggest minor saltwater influence (but not necessarily salt-
water intrusion). The Hill well is located approximately 500 feet from the shoreline, and at
fimes, pumping water levels are a few feet below sea level. The well location, pumping water
levels, and the completion elevation of 20 to 25 feet below sea level make the Hill Well suscep-
tible to saltwater intrusion. However, the slight declining trend in chloride concentration and
conductivity indicate saltwater influence may be lessening,
Water Ouality
The results from the most recent water quality analyses for the monitoring network are pre-
sented in Table 2. For historical values, refer to previous year-end summary reports. Historical
water quality data show stable chloride concentrations and conductivity values for all the wells
in the monitoring network. The recent water quality data continue to follow historical trends,
Both the historical and the most recent water quality data show chloride concentrations and
conductivity values are still within the applicable Washington State drinking water standards at
all of the rnonitoring newvork wells, The State drinking water standards for chloride and conduc-
tivity are 250 mg/l and 700 pmhos/cm, respectively. Water quality analyses do not indicate any
major concerns with regards to sea water intrusion.
Precipitation
Precipitation in the Port Ludlow area has been collected at the OWSI office since 1979. Plots of
annual totals at Port Ludlow and at NOAA's Chimacum 45 weather station are shown on Figure
20. The 38-year average for Port Ludlow is 33,41 inches per year (in/yr). This comparos to the
38-year average at the Chimacum Station of 28.91 in/yr. The difference of 4.50 infirr between
the two locations is consistent with the isohyetal map in Water Supply Bulletin 54, However,
the averages are greater at Port Ludlow and Chimacum than that suggested by the isohyetal
map (which is based on 1931-1960 data),
Since 1991, rainfall has also been collected ata'South Bay" station located atWell 13. Bainfall
in 201 6 totaled 43.83 inches at the Port Ludlow off ice and 49.13 inches at the South Bay sta-
tion. The 26-year average for the South Bay station is 35,41 in/yr, which is only slightly higher
than the Port Ludlow office station average of 33.95 inlyr for the same period of record.
As shown on Figure 20, annual precipitation in the Port Ludlow area has been well above aver-
age for six out of the past seven years (2010 through the present) and approximately average
for most of the decade preceding that (since 2001 ). ln 2013, precipitation in the area was well
below average with the lowest levels recorded in the Port Ludlow area since 1989, but was
again above average for the past three years (201 4, 2015, and 2016). Hydrographs for the vari-
ous wells do not specifically reflect the 2013 decrease in precipitation. likely because sufficient
recharge was accumulated during previous years and rainfall in subsequent years was again
above average. lt is not likely that a single year of lower than average rain fallwill significantly
impact water levels in the area's aquifers. However, if low precipitation trends persist for sev-
eral consecutive years, a decline in aquifer water levels will likely occur and may affect produc-
tion capabilities.

Table 2: Recent water ua ana for the Port Ludlow area monitori network
Summary
Monitoring has been conducted for a total of twenty-three years and is providing valuable data
for analyzing the condition of aquifers in the Port Ludlow area. The monitoring network, initiated
in April 1994, currently includes 18 wells f rom six pafticipants.
ln general, all wells in the network show seasonal variations with water levels generally declin-
ing in the spring/summer months and rising in the fall/winter months. These variations are likely
contributable to a combination of several factors. Recharge to the aquifers occurs primarily in
the fall and winter when precipitation is greatest, causing a rise in water levels. Natural dis-
charge of the aquifers occurs throughout the year but is marked by dectining water levels in
spring and summer when precipitation is lower. This is accentuated by increased pumping
withdrawals during this time. Other non-seasonal factors, such as barometric effects, tidal ef-
fects, and moasurements of post-pumping recovering water levels, add to the 'noise'of the
Page 12 1 685-0058 Robinson Noble, lnc.
trend analyses. With the seasonal variations in mind, none of the aquifers within the monitoring
network showed a significant overall decline from historical levels in 2016.
OWSI's combined annual average production for 2016 was 201 gpm (324 acre-leet) f rom all
aquifers, This is up slightly from the production recorded for 2015 of 200 gpm (323 acre-feet)
and2014 of 197 gpm (317 acre-feet), Totalannual production over the past nine years (2008
through 2016) has been consistently lower than the 2007 production high of 223 gpm (359
acre-feet). This decrease in production, particularly as it applies to the North Aquifer, has re-
versed previous declining trends observed for this area prior to 2008,
Historically, OWSI's production withdrawals from the South Aquifer (through Wells 13 and 14)
steadily increased to a high of 126 gpm (203 acre-feet) in 2006. This corresponds with a slow
but steady decline of the static water levels monitored at Wells 13 and 14. OWSI's production
withdrawals from the South Aquifer between 2007 and 20'14 (from Wells 13 and 14 prior to
2008 and then subsequently from Wells 14 and 16) fluctuated from year to year but, on aver-
age, remained at about the same level (an average of 132 gpm; 21 3 acre-feet per year). As
such, static water levels appeared to level out in response to these more consistent production
withdrawals. However, production withdrawals from the South Aquifer in 2015 and 2016 were
137 gpm (22O acre-teet) and 140 gpm {.225 acre-leet) respectively. which is up from the previ-
ous eight-year average and 2006 high. As discussed above, particularly for OWSI's Wells 14,
15, and 16, static water have shown a slight declining trend in recent years, which is likely in
response to the increase in production f rom the aquifer as a whole. lf production from the
South Aquifer continues to increase in upcoming years, it is expected that this declining trend
will continue. Overall, static water levels in the area of OWSI's South Aquifer production wells
have declined approximately eight feet since monitoring began in the early '1990s. This is not
considered significant or detrimental to the South Aquifer as a resource. However, vigilant mon-
itoring of the system should continue to be exercised, and the frequency of measurements in
each of OWSI's South Aquifer wells, particularly the non-pumped wells (Wells 13 and '15),
should be maintained at twice per month during the summer and monthly throughout the rest
of the year.
ln the South Valley Aquifer, water levels in Wells 44, 9, and 12 continue to show stable, long-
term water-level trends with seasonal variations of up to four feet. These variations are most
likely the result of variations in seasonal recharge.
The private wells in the network located within 500 feet of the shoreline show highly variable
water levels, the largest being up to 50 feet in Shine Plat Well 2, The variation in water levels is
most likely the rasult of the combination of tides, barometric effects, seasonal recharge, and
variations in pumping activity in the monitored wells and/or wells in their immediate vicinity.
Water quality results from the monitoring network wells show that chemistry has remained rel-
atively stable in all aquifers, There are currently no indications of saltwater intrusion for any of
the wells in the monitoring network.
Recommendations
The Port Ludlow groundwater monitoring program continues to function as designed. The cur-
rent program provides adequate coverage and information on the aquifers in the Port Ludlow
area. The continuation of monitoring water levels and water quality sampling in all network
wells will allow long-term trend analysis of the aquifers in the Port Ludlow area. Based on the
information gathered in 2016, we recommend that the frequency of water-level measurements
and water quality sampling be maintained at the current intervals. lt is also recommended that
