401 KAR 10:026. Designation of uses of surface waters  


Latest version.
  •       Section 1. Scope of Designation. (1) Surface waters listed in this administrative regulation shall be designated for all legitimate uses contained in KRS 224.70-100(1) except as specified in 401 KAR 10:031, Sections 5 and 8, or until redesignated in accordance with the procedures of this administrative regulation.

          (2) Designated uses are:

          (a) Warm water aquatic habitat;

          (b) Cold water aquatic habitat;

          (c) Primary contact recreation;

          (d) Secondary contact recreation;

          (e) Domestic water supply; and

          (f) Outstanding state resource water.

          (3) Listed waters shall meet all criteria applicable to their designated uses and those criteria listed in 401 KAR 10:031, Section 2, unless the cabinet grants an exception pursuant to 401 KAR 10:031, Section 10 or 11.

          (4) Outstanding state resource waters may have unique water quality characteristics that shall be protected by additional criteria established in 401 KAR 10:031, Section 8.

     

          Section 2. Redesignation of Surface Water Uses. (1)(a) Surface waters shall not be redesignated except upon affirmative findings by the cabinet pursuant to Sections 3 and 4 of this administrative regulation.

          (b) Before redesignating a surface water, the cabinet shall provide notice and an opportunity for a public hearing.

          (2) In redesignating a surface water, the cabinet shall ensure that its water quality standards provide for the attainment and maintenance of the water quality standards of downstream surface waters.

          (3) A designated use shall not be removed for a surface water if:

          (a) That use is an existing use; or

          (b) The use may be attained by implementing effluent limitations required under Sections 301(b) and 306 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1311(b) and 1316, and by implementing cost-effective best management practices for nonpoint source control.

          (4) If a surface water is designated for a use that is not an existing use, the cabinet shall redesignate the surface water upon demonstration that the designated use is unattainable because:

          (a) Naturally occurring pollutant concentrations prevent the attainment of the use;

          (b) Natural, ephemeral, intermittent, or low flow conditions or water levels prevent the attainment of the use, unless these conditions may be compensated for by the discharge of sufficient volume of effluent discharges;

          (c) Human caused conditions or sources of pollution prevent the attainment of the use and cannot be remedied or would cause more environmental damage to correct than to leave in place;

          (d) Dams, diversions, or other types of hydrologic modifications preclude the attainment of the use, and it is not feasible to restore the surface water to its original condition or to operate the modification in a way that would result in the attainment of the use;

          (e) Physical conditions related to the natural features of the surface water, but unrelated to water quality, preclude attainment of the aquatic life use, such as the lack of a proper substrate, cover, flow, depth, pools, or riffles; or

          (f) Controls more stringent than those required by Sections 301(b) and 306 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1311(b) and 1316, would result in substantial and widespread economic and social impact as determined by the guidelines in Interim Economic Guidance for Water Quality Standards Workbook, EPA, March 1995.

          (5) Redesignations shall be consistent with the antidegradation provisions of 401 KAR 10:029 and 10:030.

     

          Section 3. Documentation for Redesignations. (1)(a) A person may request redesignation of surface water uses by petition to the cabinet.

          (b) The petitioner shall provide the cabinet with the documentation required in subsection (3) of this section and shall have the burden of proof that the redesignation is appropriate.

          (2)(a) The cabinet may propose redesignations of surface water uses.

          (b) The cabinet shall provide documentation for those surface waters that it proposes for use redesignation.

          (3) Documentation to support the redesignation of a surface water of the Commonwealth shall be:

          (a) A United States Geological Survey 7.5 minute topographic map or its equivalent showing those surface waters to be redesignated, with a description consisting of a river mile index with existing and proposed discharge points;

          (b) Existing uses and water quality data for the surface waters for which the redesignation is proposed. If adequate data are unavailable, additional studies shall be required by the cabinet;

          (c) Descriptions of general land uses and specific land uses adjacent to the surface waters for which the redesignation is proposed;

          (d) The existing and designated uses of the downstream waters into which the surface water under consideration discharges;

          (e) General physical characteristics of the surface water including width, depth, bottom composition, and slope;

          (f) The frequency of occasions if there is no natural flow in the surface water and the 7Q10 and harmonic mean flow values for the surface water and adjacent surface waters;

          (g) An assessment of the existing and potential aquatic life habitat in the surface waters under consideration and the adjacent upstream surface waters.

          1. The existing aquatic life shall be documented and livestock and natural wildlife dependence on the surface water shall be assessed; and

          2. The occurrence of individuals or populations, indices of diversity and well-being, and abundance of species of unique native biota shall be documented;

          (h) The proposed designated uses for the surface water in question; and

          (i) An explanation of the irretrievable person-induced, or natural conditions that preclude attainment of a higher use designation or an assessment of the substantial and widespread social and economic impacts resulting from the imposition of additional controls necessary for existing point sources, beyond the most stringent effluent limitation levels normally required for the sources.

     

          Section 4. Procedures for Redesignation. (1) For each of the surface waters for which a redesignation is proposed, the cabinet or petitioner shall prepare a fact sheet containing:

          (a) The name and address of the petitioner;

          (b) The name and sketch or description of the surface water proposed for specified use redesignations, including the location of existing and proposed dischargers;

          (c) The proposed use redesignations;

          (d) A brief abstract of the supportive documentation, which demonstrates that the redesignation is appropriate;

          (e) The appropriate water quality criteria for the surface water based on the proposed designated use;

          (f) The treatment requirements proposed for discharges to the surface water in question if designated for the proposed use; and

          (g) A "plain English" summary of the implications of the designation for the community and other users or potential users of the surface water in question.

          (2) The cabinet shall document the determination to propose or deny redesignation as a result of a petition, and shall provide a copy of the decision to the petitioner and other interested parties.

     

          Section 5. Surface Water Use Designations. (1) Listed in the tables in this administrative regulation are the use designations for specific surface waters of the Commonwealth. The county column indicates the county in which the mouth or outlet of the surface water is located. The identifying symbols for use designations are listed in table A of this section.
