| Description | This Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was developed for rulemaking AO#19-02, to amend several sections of Chapter 173-201A WAC - Water Quality Standards for Surface Waters of the State of Washington. Amendments include: changes to numeric criteria for total dissolved gas (TDG) in the Snake and Columbia rivers, amending specific sections of the rule to meet legal obligations in a 2018 Stipulated Order of Dismissal, and clarifying the descriptions of marine water aquatic life use designations. The purpose of this EIS is to identify the potential impacts caused by proposed changes to the Water Quality Standards and to identify and analyze reasonable alternatives and mitigation measures. | ||||
