Request for Scientific Views: Draft 

Aquatic Life Ambient Estuarine/Marine 

Water Quality Criteria for Copper— 

2016 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of availability. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is announcing the 

availability of EPA’s Draft Aquatic Life 

Ambient Estuarine/Marine Water 

Quality Criteria for Copper—2016 for 

public comment. EPA’s Clean Water Act 

section 304(a)(1) draft recommended 

water quality criteria incorporate a 

recently-developed saltwater biotic 

ligand model (BLM) and the latest 

scientific information for estuarine/

marine aquatic organisms. The updated 

recommended criteria will be 

particularly beneficial in the adoption of 

water quality standards for the 

protection of aquatic life in and around 

coastal harbors and marinas, where 

antifouling paints and coatings on 

vessels and marine structures represent 

one of the most commonly identified 

sources of copper to the estuarine/

marine environment. 

Following closure of this 60-day 

public comment period, EPA will 

consider the comments, revise the 

document, as appropriate, and then 

publish a final document that will 

provide recommendations for states and 

authorized tribes to establish water 

quality standards under the Clean Water 

Act (CWA). 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before September 27, 2016. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

OW–2016–0332, to the Federal 

eRulemaking Portal: http://

www.regulations.gov. Follow the online 

instructions for submitting comments. 

Once submitted, comments cannot be 

edited or withdrawn. EPA may publish 

any comment received to its public 

docket. Do not submit electronically any 

information you consider to be 

Confidential Business Information (CBI) 

or other information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute. Multimedia 

submissions (audio, video, etc.) must be 

accompanied by a written comment. 

The written comment is considered the 

official comment and should include 

discussion of all points you wish to 

make. EPA will generally not consider 

comments or comment contents located 

outside of the primary submission (i.e., 

on the web, cloud, or other file sharing 

system). For additional submission 

methods, the full EPA public comment 

policy, information about CBI or 

multimedia submissions, and general 

guidance on making effective 

comments, please visit http://

material, such as copyrighted material, 

will be publicly available only in hard 

copy. Publicly available docket 

materials are available either 

electronically in www.regulations.gov or 

in hard copy at the Water Docket, EPA/ 

DC, EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 

Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, 

DC. The Public Reading Room is open 

from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday

II. What are EPA’s recommended water 

quality criteria? 

EPA’s recommended water quality 

criteria are scientifically derived 

numeric values that protect aquatic life 

or human health from the deleterious 

effects of pollutants in ambient water. 

Section 304(a)(1) of the Clean Water Act 

(CWA) directs EPA to develop and 

publish and, from time to time, revise 

criteria for protection of aquatic life and 

human health that accurately reflect the 

latest scientific knowledge. Water 

quality criteria developed under section 

304(a)(1) are based solely on data and 

the latest scientific knowledge on the 

relationship between pollutant 

concentrations and environmental and 

human health effects. Section 304(a)(1) 

criteria do not reflect consideration of 

economic impacts or the technological 

feasibility of meeting pollutant 

concentrations in ambient water. 

EPA’s recommended section 304(a)(1) 

criteria provide technical information to 

states and authorized tribes in adopting 

water quality standards (WQS) that 

ultimately provide a basis for assessing 

water body health and controlling 

discharges of pollutants. Under the 

CWA and its implementing regulations, 

states and authorized tribes are to adopt 

water quality criteria to protect 

designated uses (e.g., public water 

supply, aquatic life, recreational use, or 

industrial use). EPA’s recommended 

water quality criteria do not substitute
