Any point source discharges to trout streams must have treatment technologies that meet more stringent dissolved oxygen and temperature water quality standards than discharges to warm water streams in order to protect the trout fishery. These water quality standards are found in 9 VAC 25-260-50 and 9 VAC 25-260-70. Also, discharges to the highest quality natural trout streams (those identified by the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries as Class i and ii) are not allowed to use chlorine or other halogenated compounds for disinfection purposes or other treatment purposes.
The Department of Environmental Quality has determined that no industrial or municipal discharges will be effected by these amendments. Therefore, it is not expected tha* these waste effluent limitation deletions or trout water amendments will incur a financial hardship to Rappahannock County. It is expected these amendments will benefit the locality through proper protection of the aquatic life and recreational resources.
This rulemaking contains other amendments that are statewide in nature and not specific to the locality.
