**7:9B -**  **1.5 Statements of policy** (a) General polici es are as follows: 1. These Surface W ater Quality Standards apply to all surface waters of the State. 2. Water is vital to life and comprises an invaluable natural resource which is not to be abused by any segment of the State's population or economy. I t is the policy of the State to restore, maintain and enhance the chemical, physical and biological integrity of its waters, to protect the public health, to safeguard the aquatic biota, protect scenic and ecological values, and to enhance the domestic, m unicipal, recreational, industrial, agricultural and other reasonable uses of the State's waters. 3. The restoration, maintenance and preservation of the quality of the waters of the State for the protection and preservation of public water supplies is a paramount interest of the citizens of New Jersey. In order to provide adequate, clean supplies of potable water, it is the policy of the State that all fresh waters be protected as potential sources of public water supply. Therefore, point and nonpoint s ources of pollutants shall be regulated to attain compliance with the Surface W ater Quality Standards human health criteria outside of regulatory mixing zones.11

4. Toxic substances in waters of the State shall not be at levels that are toxic to humans or t he aquatic biota, or that bioaccumulate in the aquatic biota so as to render them unfit for human consumption. 5. The introduction of carcinogenic, mutagenic, or teratogenic substances into the environment is of particular concern to the Department. Huma n health based ambient criteria have been established for carcinogenic substances at levels which would result in no greater than a one - in -one - million lifetime excess cancer risk for Group A and B carcinogens, under exposure assumptions appropriate for the designated uses of the waterbody. Criteria for Group C carcinogens, for which reference doses are not available, have been established at levels which would result in no greater than a one - in one - hundred thousand lifetime excess cancer risk. 6. Existing uses shall be maintained and protected. Designated uses shall, as soon as technically and economically feasible, be attained wherever these uses are not precluded by natural conditions. W here existing criteria are inadequate to support the existing or d esignated uses, the criteria shall be changed to support the existing uses. 7. The restoration of saline waters to levels which permit unrestricted shellfish harvesting is an objective of the Department. (b) Interstate waters policies are as follows: 1

. The designated uses and water quality criteria for the fresh and saline waters under the jurisdiction of the Delaware River Basin Commission shall be as established in accordance with N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.13, 1.14(c), and 1.14(d). 2. The designated uses and water quality criteria for waters under the jurisdiction of the Interstate Sanitation Commission in the New Jersey/New York metropolitan area shall be as established in this subchapter, or in accordance with the prevailing W ater Quality Regulations of the Interstate Sanitation Commission, including all amendments and future supplements thereto, whichever are more stringent. (c) General technical policies are as follows: 1. The natural water quality shall be used in place of the promulgated water quality c riteria of N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.14 for all water quality characteristics that do not meet the promulgated water quality criteria as a result of natural causes. 2. Water quality criteria are expected to be maintained during periods when nontidal or small tidal stream flows are at or greater than the appropriate design flow. For carcinogenic effect- based human health criteria, toxic substances with a bioaccumulation or bioconcentration factor greater than 200 Liters/kilogram (L/kg) (as listed at 1.5(c)2i below) and for12 bromodichloromethane (BDCM), the design flow shall be the flow which is exceeded 75% of the time for the appropriate A period of record @ as determined by the United States Geological Survey (USGS). For acute aquatic life protection criteria, the desig n flow shall be the MA1CD10 flow. For chronic aquatic life protection criteria for ammonia, the design flow shall be the MA30CD10 flow. The design flow for all other criteria shall be the MA7CD10 flow. iii. Toxic substances having carcinogenic effect- based h uman health criteria and with a bioaccumulation or bioconcentration factor greater than 200 L/kg are as follows: (1) Aldrin; (2) Chlordane; (3) 4,4' - DDD (p,p' -TDE); (4) 4,4' - DDE; (5) 4,4' - DDT; (6) 3,3' - Dichlorobenzidene; (7) Dieldrin; (8) Heptachlor; (9) Heptachlor epoxide; (10) Hexachlorobenzene; (11) Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs); (12) 2,3,7,8 -Tetrachlorodibenzo - p -dioxin (TCDD); and (13) Toxaphene. 3. Water quality criteria are expected to be maintained in intermittent streams during all natural flow conditions. W hen an intermittent stream does not contain natural flow of sufficient magnitude to determine water quality, the criteria to be maintained in the intermittent stream will be those pertaining to the measurable natural flow immediately downst ream of the intermittent stream. 4. All analytical data to be incorporated by the Department in water quality monitoring or other activities shall be from laboratories approved or certified by the Department for the analysis of those specific parameters. If certification is not offered for the specific parameter, the laboratory performing the analysis shall, at a minimum, hold certification in the category of certification covering that type of parameter. 5. The Department shall utilize the parameter specific criteria contained in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.14 in the development of chemical specific water qualitybased effluent limitations for point source discharges. W henever parameter specific criteria have not been adopted, the Department will utilize the best avai lable scientific information in the development of chemical specific water quality- based effluent limitations for point source discharges. Ambient criteria published by the United States Environmental Protection Agency pursuant to section 304(a) of the Fe deral Clean W ater Act represent the minimum acceptable best scientific information to be13 used in the development of water quality- based effluent limitations for point source discharges. 6. Unless a metal translator is developed based on a site -specific water quality study or approved by USEPA as part of a watershed study or TMDL, the following metal translators shall be used for developing effluent limitations or expressing aquatic life criteria in the equivalent total recoverable form: **Name of the Metal**  **Freshw ater**

(d) Antidegradation policies are as follows: 1. These antidegradation policies apply to all surface waters of the State. 2. Existing uses shall be maintained and protected. Designated uses shall be maintained or, as soon as technically and economically feasible, be attained wherever these uses are not precluded by natural conditions. 3. No irreversible changes may be made to existing water quality that would impair or preclude attainment of the designated use s of a waterway. 4. No changes shall be allowed in waters which constitute an outstanding National or State resource or in waters that may affect these outstanding resource waters. 5. Wh ere water quality exceeds levels necessary to support the designated uses, including but not limited to, propagation of fish, shellfish, and wildlife and recreation in and on the water, that quality shall be maintained and protected unless the Department finds, after full satisfaction of the intergovernmental coordination and public participation provisions of the Department's continuing planning process as set forth in the Statewide Water Quality Management Plan (see N.J.A.C. 7:15), which includes, but is not limited to, the NJPDES Regulations (N.J.A.C. 7:14A), that allowi ng lower water quality is necessary to accommodate important economic or social development in the area in which the waters are located. 6. These antidegradation policies shall be applied as follows: i. The quality of Nondegradation waters shall be main tained in their natural state (set aside for posterity) and shall not be subject to any manmade wastewater discharges. The Department shall not approve any activity which, alone or in combination with any other activities, might cause changes, other than toward natural water quality, in the existing surface water quality characteristics. ii. For Pinelands waters, the Department shall not approve any activity which alone or in combination with any other activities, might cause changes, other than toward natural water quality, in the existing surface water quality characteristics. This policy shall apply as follows: (1) This policy is not intended to interfere with water control in the operation of cranberry bogs or blueberry production. (2) Dischargers h olding valid NJPDES permits as of May 20, 1985, shall be allowed to continue discharging under the terms of15 their existing NJPDES permits provided that the discharge is not creating any water quality problems and that the designated uses are being attained . If a water quality problem has been created or the designated uses are not being attained, the NJPDES permit shall be modified to eliminate the water quality problem or attain the designated uses. (3) Existing dischargers shall be subject to all the provisions of this subchapter when they apply for modification or expansion of their existing discharge. iii. Category One W aters shall be protected from any measurable changes (including calculable or predicted changes) to the existing water quality. W ate r quality characteristics that are generally worse than the water quality criteria, except as due to natural conditions, shall be improved to maintain or provide for the designated uses where this can be accomplished without adverse impacts on organisms, communities or ecosystems of concern. iv. For Category Two W aters, water quality characteristics that are generally better than, or equal to, the water quality standards shall be maintained within a range of quality that shall protect the existing/designated uses, as determined by studies acceptable to the Department, relating existing/designated uses to water quality. Wh ere such studies are not available or are inconclusive, water quality shall be protected from changes that might be detrimental to the attainment of the designated uses or maintenance of the existing uses. W ater quality characteristics that are generally worse than the water quality criteria shall be improved to meet the water quality criteria. 7. Wh ere a lower classification of water (i ncluding the different antidegradation waters) may impinge upon a higher classification of water the Department shall ensure that the quality and uses of the higher classification water are protected. 8. A waterway or waterbody from which raw water is tra nsferred to another waterway or waterbody shall be treated as a tributary to the waterway or waterbody receiving the transferred water. 9. Modifications of water quality- based effluent limitations established to implement this antidegradation policy may b e granted pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.8 and 1.9. (e) Water quality- based effluent limitation policies are as follows:16

1. Water quality- based effluent limitations may be established so as to minimize total expenditures, subject to social and environmental constraints, so that the provisions of the water quality standards (which includes the antidegradation policies) are met. This policy may result in the assignment of different levels of treatment to different dischargers where this proves more beneficial on a study area basis. 2. Modifications of water quality- based effluent limitations established to implement the water quality standards (which includes the antidegradation policies) granted pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.8 and 1.9 , shall provide for efflu ent limits at least as stringent as those required pursuant to sections 301, 306, and 307 of the Federal Clean W ater Act or the minimum BOD5 effluent standards at N.J.A.C. 7:14A- 12.4, where applicable, whichever are more stringent. 3. Water quality- based effluent limitations developed in accordance with N.J.A.C. 7:14A- 13.6 shall not interfere with the attainment of the Surface Water Quality Standards, including the antidegradation policies. 4. Wh en a discharge is made to a tidal waterway in the reach where the salinity varies from less than 3.5 ppt. to greater than 3.5 ppt., or the salinity data are inconclusive, the Department shall establish as water qualitybased effluent limitations the more stringent of the limitations, on a parameter specific basis, required for the upstream, FW , waters or the downstream, SE, waters. 5. Wh ere the effluent limitations developed pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:14A- 13.6 are below the level of detectability of the procedures in N.J.A.C. 7:18 the Department will use an effluent l imitation of nondetectable in any NJPDES permit. 6. Compliance schedules may be issued in accordance with N.J.A.C. 7:14A6.4 when it is demonstrated by a discharger that new or revised water quality- based effluent limitations, based on ambient criteria ad opted or revised after July 1, 1977, cannot be consistently met with the facility's existing treatment process. No schedule of compliance may be allowed for parameter specific water quality- based effluent limitations where the parameter specific ambient water quality criterion, which was the basis for developing that limitation, was adopted prior to July 1, 1977, and has not been revised since adoption. (f) Bioassay and biomonitoring policies are as follows: 1. Bioassay test species selection criteria fo llow: i. The objective of the Department is to use test species for toxicity testing bioassays that are representative of the more sensitive17 aquatic biota from the different trophic levels of the waters in question. ii. Test species need not be indigenou s to, nor occur in the waters in question. iii. Wh en the bioassay test protocol being utilized falls under the scope of N.J.A.C. 7:18 the Department shall designate the approved representative species considered to be the most sensitive to the discharge. 2. Acute definitive bioassay tests, in accordance with N.J.A.C. 7:18, will normally be utilized in determining the toxicity of a discharge to the aquatic biota. 3. The Department, in order to further characterize the toxicity of a discharge, may allow or require the use of other procedures including, but not limited to: i. Bioaccumulation testing; ii. Mutagenicity testing; and iii. Measures of the structure and function of the aquatic community in the receiving waters. 4. Parameter specific water qua lity criteria for toxic substances in a waterbody may be established by the Department when adequate data, from appropriate bioassays or scientific literature, are available as follows: i. Appropriate bioassays, for purposes of this policy, shall include both acute definitive and chronic definitive bioassays; and ii. The amount of bioassay data or scientific literature needed to support adoption of a parameter specific criterion in a given waterbody will be determined by the Department on a case - by-case b asis. (g) Nutrient policies are as follows: 1. These policies apply to all FWwaters of the State. 2. Except as due to natural conditions, nutrients shall not be allowed in concentrations that cause objectionable algal densities, nuisance aquatic vegetation, abnormal diurnal fluctuations in dissolved oxygen or pH,18 changes to the composition of aquatic ecosystems, or otherwise render the waters unsuitable for the designated uses. 3. The Department may establish watershed or site -specific water quality criteria for nutrients in lakes, ponds, reservoirs or streams, in addition to or in place of the criteria in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.14, when necessary to protect existing or designated uses. Such criteria shall become part of these Water Quality Standards. 4. The Department shall establish water quality- based effluent limits for nutrients, in addition to or more stringent than, the effluent standard in N.J.A.C. 7:9 - 5.7, as necessary to meet the quality criteria. 5. Activities resulting in the non - point discharge of nutrients shall implement the best management practices determined by the Department to be necessary to protect the existing or designated uses. 6. The Department may allow or require the use of algal biostimulation assays, to determine the limiting nu trient in a lake, pond, reservoir or stream. (h) A permittee may request that a regulatory mixing zone be established by the Department for applicable criteria except as otherwise provided in this section. Regulatory mixing zone s may be evaluated as part of the development of water quality- based effluent limitation(s) to provide for the initial dispersion of the effluent in the receiving water body at or near the discharge point. 1. The following are the general conditions for establishing regulatory mixing zones: iv. Regulatory mixing zones shall be established in accordance with this subsection; v. Water quality criteria may be exceeded within the regulatory mixing zone; however, surface water quality criteria must be met at the ed ge of the regulatory mixing zone; vi. The regulatory mixing zone shall be no larger than that portion of the receiving water where complete mixing occurs; vii. Regulatory mixing zones shall not be used for, or considered as a substitute for, minimum treatment tec hnology required by the Federal and State Acts or other applicable Federal or State laws or regulations;19 viii. Regulatory mixing zones shall be established to assure that significant mortality does not occur to free swimming or drifting organisms; (11) In individua l regulatory mixing zones, discharges which meet acute effluent toxicity of LC 50  50% shall be deemed to comply with this requirement. (12) In cases of extended regulatory mixing zones resulting from multiple, conjoined individual re gulatory mixing zones, site specific studies to demonstrate no significant mortality shall be required, taking into account factors including, time of travel, concentration, and the toxicity of the parameters in question; ix. The existing and designated uses outside the regulatory mixing zone shall not be adversely affected; x. The total area and volume of a waterbody assigned to a regulatory mixing zone shall be limited to that which will not adversely affect beneficial uses or interfere with biological communi ties or populations of important species (for example, commercially or recreationally significant species; or threatened or endangered species); xi. Regulatory mixing zones, including those for shore hugging plumes, shall not extend into recreational areas, potable surface water intakes (1500 feet upstream and 500 feet downstream or to the farthest point of backwatering due to the intake, whichever is more protective), shellfish harvesting areas, threatened or endangered species habitat, and other important b iological or natural resource areas; xii. The regulatory mixing zone shall not inhibit or impede the passage of aquatic biota; and xiii. Overlapping regulatory mixing zones shall not inhibit or impede the passage of aquatic biota. 2. Spatial limitations for regulatory mixing zones delineate the maximum area in which the initial mixing may occur. A site -specific study performed in accordance with (h)3 below will be used to determine dilution in tidal water bodies and in nontidal water bodies where mixing is not shown to be rapid and complete. A maximum area shall be applied in any one of the following four situations: xiv. Heat dissipation areas as provided at N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.14(c)11.ii or a variance issued pursuant to Section 316(a) of the Clean W ater Act, 33 U.S.C. 1326 (a).20 xv. For discharges to tidal water bodies: (13) Regulatory mixing zones for chronic and human health criteria are limited to one fourth of the distance between the discharge port closest to the shoreline and the shoreline during average tidal conditions, or 1 00 meters, whichever is greater; and (14) Regulatory mixing zones for acute criteria are limited by the distances calculated in accordance with the USEPA A Technical Support Document For W ater Quality- Based Toxics Control @ USEPA, EPA/505/2 -90 -001, March 1991, i ncorporated herein by reference. In no case shall a regulatory mixing zone for acute criteria extend more than 100 meters from the discharge point or include more than five percent of the total surface area of a water body based on critical ambient tidal conditions during low slack, astronomical spring tide for the applicable exposure period. xvi. For discharges to non -tidal water bodies: (1) Regulatory mixing zones for chronic and human health criteria shall be based on the design flows at (c)2 above. If rapid, complete mix is demonstrated, the entire available design flow may be used in dilution calculations. If rapid, complete mix is not demonstrated, only that portion of the design flow that can be demonstrated to mix with the effluent within 100 meters from the discharge point may be used in dilution calculations; and (2) Regulatory mixing zones for acute criteria shall be based on the MA1CD10 design flow. If rapid, complete mix is demonstrated, the entire available design flow may be used in dilution calculations. If rapid, complete mix is not demonstrated, only that portion of the design flow that can be demonstrated to mix with the effluent within a downstream distance calculated in accordance with the USEPA A Technical Support Document For Water Qu ality- Based Toxics Control @ USEPA, EPA/505/2 - 90 - 001, March 1991 may be used. In no case shall a regulatory mixing zone for acute criteria extend more than 100 meters from the discharge point or include more than five percent of the total surface area of a water body based on the design flow. xvii. Site -specific spatial dimensions of the regulatory mixing zone for an approved multiport diffuser shall be determined by the Department. The dimensions of the site -specific regulatory mixing zone and the allowable dil ution at the edge of the regulatory mixing zone may be established using appropriate diffuser models (for example,21 CORMIX, PLUMES), tracer studies, or other field studies approved by the Department in accordance with (h)3 below. 3. A regulatory mixing zone study shall be conducted in accordance with a workplan pre -approved by the Department. General protocols for conducting mixing zone studies are described in the USEPA A Technical Support Document For W ater Quality- Based Toxics Control @ USEPA, EPA/505/2 - 90 -0 01, March 1991. In addition, the following principles apply: i. The design flows to be used in calculating available dilution in nontidal waters shall be based on the design flows specified at (c)2 above; and ii. In tidal waters, the regulatory mixing zone for an acute criteria shall be based on critical ambient tidal conditions during low slack, astronomical spring tide for the applicable exposure period. Regulatory mixing zones for chronic and human health criteria shall be based on average conditions during a normal tidal cycle. 4. In order to determine waste load allocations and NJPDES/DSW permit effluent limitations that will comply with the regulatory mixing zone requirements, instream pollutant concentrations at the boundary of the regulatory mixing zone shall be determined as follows: xviii. The instream concentrations shall be determined using either a general mass balance equation or a mathematical model, if available; or the information generated during the course of a study as described at (h)2 above

. xix. If the regulatory mixing zone is based upon the guidance and procedures in the USEPA A Technical Support Document For W ater Quality- Based Toxics Control @ USEPA, EPA/505/2 - 90 - 001, March 1991, the Technical Support Document will also be used to determine i nstream concentrations at the boundary of the regulatory mixing zone. 5. Regulatory mixing zones are prohibited as follows: i. For indicators of pathogenic quality, including fecal coliform and enterococci; ii. In intermittent streams; iii. For new or increased di scharges to lakes, ponds, and reservoirs; iv. For discharges to areas of waters with documented occurrences of any threatened or endangered species listed pursuant to the Federal22 or State Threatened and Endangered Species Acts (Endangered Species Act of 1973, 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.; New Jersey Endangered and Non Game Species Conservation Act of 1973, N.J.S.A. 23:2A- 1 et seq.; Endangered Plant Species List Act, N.J.S.A. 13:1B - 15.151 et seq.), if those discharges would likely have an adverse effect on the specie s or its associated habitat; v. For heat dissipation areas in FW 2 -TP waters; vi. For heat dissipation areas within 1500 feet of the shoreline in SC waters; vii. For new discharges of the following pollutants: (1) alpha - BHC (alpha - HCH), (2) beta - BHC (beta - HCH), (3) gamma - BHC (gamma HCH / Lindane), (4) Chlordane, (5) 4,4' - DDD (p,p' -TDE), (6) 4,4' - DDE, (7) 4,4' - DDT, (8) Dieldrin, (9) Hexachlorobenzene, (10) Hexachlorobutadiene, (11) Mercury, (12) Mirex, (13) Pentachlorobenzene, (14) Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), (15) 1,2,4,5 -Tetrachlorobenzene, (16) 2,3,7,8 -Tetrachlorodibenzo - p -dioxin (TCDD), and (17) Toxaphene; and viii. For new or expanded discharges, within 1500 feet upstream of a potable surface water intake (including any reservoir) and 500 feet downstream or to the fa rthest point of backwatering due to the intake, whichever is more protective. **7:9B -**  **1.6 Establishment of w ater quality** **- based effluent limitations**  (a) For Category One waters, as defined in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.4, water quality- based effluent limitations shall be assigned to a point source discharge so as to protect the existing water quality from any measurable or calculable changes. The Department shall establish water quality- based effluent limitations, as appropriate, for those parameters contained in N.J. A.C. 7:9B - 1.14, as well as any other parameters the Department believes may have a detrimental effect on the designated or existing uses.23

(b) For Category Two waters, as defined in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.4, draft water qualitybased effluent limitations shall be assigned to a point source discharge so as to: 1. Maintain water quality characteristics that are generally better than or equal to the water quality standards at a level that will protect the existing and designated uses; and 2. Bring water quality cha racteristics that are generally worse than the water quality criteria, except as due to natural conditions, up to the water quality criteria or to levels corresponding with wasteload allocations established pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:15 - 7.6. (c). Water quality- based effluent limits for chlorine produced oxidants based on the criteria in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.14(c)14 are not applicable where: i. The aquatic community of a waterbody is exposed to one or more point source discharges of non -contact cooling water that i s intermittently chlorinated to control condenser biofouling; ii. The total period of such exposure to chlorinated wastewater is two hours per day or less; and iii. The maximum concentration of chlorine produced oxidants in the effluents of such discharges shall not exceed 200 ug/L. **7:9B -**  **1.7 Waterway**

**loadings in areaw ide w** **ater quality management plans**  Any total maximum daily load, wasteload allocation, or load allocation established as an amendment to an areawide water quality management plan under N. J.A.C. 7:15 - 3.4 shall be consistent with all of the provisions of this subchapter. **7:9B -**  **1.8 Procedures for modify ing w** **ater quality -** **based effluent limitations for**

**individual dischargers to Category One w** **aters** (a) An applicant requesting modification of a water quality- based effluent limitation, established on a case - by-case basis, must demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Department, after public notice (including notice to affected municipalities) and a public hearing (where sufficient public interest exists), that: 1. Some change in ambient water quality should be allowed because of necessary and justifiable social or economic development; 2. Alternative effluent limitations, at least as stringent as the technology- based effluent limitations require d by either sections 301, 306, and 307 of the Federal Clean W ater Act, or the effluent limitations resulting from application of the minimum BOD5 effluent standards in N.J.A.C. 7:14A- 12.424 (where applicable), whichever are more stringent, will not interfere nor be injurious to the existing or designated uses; and 3. Wh ere the requested modified effluent limitations would result in contravention of the water quality criteria or the degradation of the natural water quality, whichever is less stringent: i. Th e water quality criteria are not attainable because of natural background; or ii. The water quality criteria are not attainable because of irretrievable man - induced conditions; or iii. 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 without violating State water conservation requirements to enable uses to be met; or iv. Controls more strin gent than those required by Sections 301(b) and 306 of the Federal Clean W ater Act would result in substantial and widespread adverse social and economic impact. (b) It is the responsibility of the applicant to provide the Department with all the information needed to evaluate the requested modification(s). (c) In no case shall changes to water quality be allowed in Outstanding National Resource W aters. (d) Modified effluent limitations may be granted for a time period not to exceed three years or the t ime period of the permit in which the modified effluent limitations appear, whichever is shorter. (e) Modified effluent limitations may be renewed if the discharger demonstrates, to the Department's satisfaction, after public notice (including notice to affected municipalities) and a public hearing (where sufficient interest exists), that the basis for issuing the modification still exists and there have been no adverse impacts on the existing uses. (f) Wh ere water quality criteria are not currently met t he Department shall not grant a modification, as set forth in this section, establishing an effluent limitation less stringent than the limitation(s) in the existing permit, unless the criteria are not met because of natural conditions. **7:9B -**  **1.9 Procedur es for modify** **ing w ater quality** **- based effluent limitations for** 

**individual dischargers to Category Tw** **o w aters.** 25

(a) The criteria for modifying water quality- based effluent limitations established on a case - by-case basis are: 1. The applicant for modificatio n of effluent limitations for parameters that are currently better than the water quality criteria must demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Department, after public notice (including notice to affected municipalities) and a public hearing (where suffic ient public interest exists), that: i. Some degradation of water quality parameters currently better than the water quality criteria should be allowed because of necessary and justifiable social or economic development; and ii. Alternative effluent limitations, at least as stringent as the technology- based effluent limitations required by either sections 301, 306, and 307 of the Federal Clean W ater Act, or the effluent limitations resulting from application of the effluent standards (where applicable) in N.J.A.C. 7:14A- 12, whichever are more stringent, will not interfere with nor be injurious to the existing or designated uses. 2. The applicant for modification of effluent limitations for parameters that are currently equal to or currently do not meet th e water quality criteria in this subchapter must demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Department, after public notice (including notice to affected municipalities) and a public hearing (where sufficient public interest exists), that: i. The water quali ty criteria are not attainable because of natural background; or ii. The water quality criteria are not attainable because of irretrievable man - induced conditions; or iii. Natural, ephemeral, intermittent, or low flow conditions or water levels prevent t he attainment of the water quality criteria, unless these conditions may be compensated for by the discharge of sufficient volume of effluent discharges without violating State water conservation requirements to enable uses to be met; or iv. Controls more stringent than those required by Section 301(b) and 306 of the Federal Clean W ater Act would result in substantial and widespread adverse social and economic impact. (b) Wh ere water quality criteria are not currently met the Department shall not grant a modification, as set forth in this section, establishing an effluent limitation less stringent than the limitation(s) in the existing permit, unless the criteria are not met because of natural conditions.26

(c) Modified effluent limitations may be granted for a time period not to exceed three years or the time period of the permit in which the modified effluent limitations appear, whichever is shorter. (d) Modified effluent limitations may be renewed if the discharger demonstrates, to the satisfaction of th e Department, after public notice (including notice to affected municipalities) and a public hearing (where sufficient interest exists), that the basis for issuing the modification still exists and there have been no adverse impacts on the existing uses. **7:9B -**  **1.10 Procedures for reclassify ing specific segments for less restrictive** 

**uses** (a) The Department will entertain petitions, for reclassification of specific segments to less restrictive uses, or may decide to initiate reclassification proceedings on its own, at any time. (b) Any reclassification proceedings will include full documentation of the items contained in (d) and (e) below. The documentation will be prepared by either the Department (where the Department has initiated the reclassification on its own) or the petitioner for the reclassification. (c) The Department shall issue public notice to all interested parties (including affected municipalities) and shall hold public hearing(s) as part of any reclassification proceeding. (d) The Depart ment or the petitioner, as indicated in (b) above, shall include in the reclassification documentation appropriate water quality studies and analyses, biological studies and analyses, environmental, social, and economic studies as are necessary to demonstrate the satisfaction of (e) 1 and 2 below, in addition to at least one of the remaining criteria in (e) below. (e) The Department may establish less restrictive uses than the designated uses only after it has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the D epartment that: 1. None of the uses being removed are existing uses; and 2. The uses to be removed will not be attained by implementing effluent limits required by Sections 301(b) and 306 of the Federal Clean W ater Act in conjunction with implementation of cost-effective and reasonable best management requirements for nonpoint source pollution control; and 3. The existing designated use is not attainable because of natural background; or 4. The existing designated use is not attainable because of irretrievable man induced conditions; or27

5. 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 without violating State water conservation requirements to enable uses to be met; or 6. Physical conditions related to the natural features of the water body, such as the lack of a proper substrate, cover, flow, depth, pools, riffles, and the like, unrelated to water quality, preclude attainment of aquatic life protection uses; or 7. Controls more stringent than those required by Sections 301(b) and 306 of the Federal Clean W ater Act would result in substantial and widespread adverse social and economic i mpact. (f) Any reclassification for less restrictive uses, established pursuant to this section shall be reviewed during each review of water quality standards pursuant to Section 303 of the Federal Clean W ater Act (at least once every three years). Eit her the Department or the original petitioner, as indicated in (b) above, shall be responsible for supplying documentation showing that the bases for the reclassification still exist. (g) In those cases in which a thermal discharge is involved, the proced ures for reclassifying segments for less restrictive use shall be consistent with section 316 of the Federal Clean W ater Act.28

Wh ere a reclassification for less restrictive uses ha s been granted pursuant to N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.10, the bases for the reclassification no longer exist; or 3. It is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Department that any uses in Section 101 (a) (2) of the Federal Clean W ater Act, protection and propagati on of fish, shellfish, and wildlife, and recreation in and on the water, which are not included in the designated uses listed in this subchapter are attainable. (f) A reclassification for more restrictive uses may be made when: 1. It is demonstrated to t he satisfaction of the Department that the waters should be set aside to represent the natural aquatic environment and its associated biota; or 2. It is demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Department that a more restrictive use is necessary to protect a unique ecological system or threatened/endangered species. (g) In those cases in which a thermal discharge is involved, the procedures for reclassifying segments for more restrictive uses shall be consistent with section 316 of the Federal Clean W ater Act. **7:9B -**  **1.12 Designated uses of FW1, PL, FW2, SE1, SE2, SE3, and SC w aters** 29

For parameters with criteria in "Delaware River Basin Commission, Administrative Manual - Part III, W ater Quality Regulations," Article 3, dated October 23, 1996, including all amendments and future supplements thereto, the criteria contained therein are the applicable criteria. ii. For parameters without criteria in "Delaware River Basin Commission, Administrative Manual - Part III, W ater Quality Regulations," Article 3, dated October 23, 1996, including all amendments and future supplements thereto, the criteria at (c) above are the applicable criteria and shall be applied as follows: (1) Criteria applicable to FW 2 - NT waters apply where salinities are less than or equal to 3.5 parts per thousand (ppt) at mean high tide; (2) Criteria applicable to SE waters apply where salinities are greater than 3.5 ppt at mean high tide; and (3) Wh ere salinities vary from 3.5 ppt or less, to greater than 3.5 ppt, at mean high tide, the more stringent of the FW 2 - NT or SE criteria apply. 2. Tributaries to the mainstem Delaware River and Delaware Bay: i. The applicable criteria are those contained in "Delaware River Basin Commission, Administrative Manual - Part III, W ater Quality Regulations," Article 3, dated October 23, 1996, including all amendments and supplements thereto; or ii. The criteria at (c) above, whichever are more stringent. 3. For all waters under the jurisdiction of the DRBC where criteria are not established in "Delaware River Basin Commission, Administrative Manual

- Part III, W ater Quality Regulations," Article 3, dated October 23, 1996, including all amendments and future supp lements thereto, or at (c) above, the Department shall use criteria based upon the best available scientific information, in accordance with (d)1ii above and N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.5(c)5, to establish water quality- based effluent limitations.56

**7:9B -**  **1.15 Surface water classifications for the w** **aters of the State of New Jersey**  (a) This section contains the surface water classifications for the waters of the State of New Jersey. Surface water classifications are presented in tabular form. Subsections (c) through (g) contain surface water classifications by major drainage basin. Subsection (h) lists FW 1 waters by tract within basins and subsection (i) identifies the Outstanding National Resource W aters of the State. (b) The following are instructions for the us e of Tables 1 through 5 found in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.15(c) through (g) respectively: 1. The surface water classification tables give the surface water classifications for waters of the State. Surface waters of the State and their classification are listed i n the table covering the major drainage basin in which they are located. The major drainage basins are: i. The Atlantic Coastal drainage basin which contains the surface waters listed in Table 1 in (c) below; ii. The Delaware River drainage basin which co ntains the surface waters listed in Table 2 in (d) below; iii. The Passaic River, Hudson River and New York Harbor Complex drainage basin which contains the surface waters listed in Table 3 in (e) below; iv. The Raritan River and Raritan Bay drainage basin which contains the surface waters listed in Table 4 in (f) below; and v. The W allkill River drainage basin which contains the surface waters listed in Table 5 in (g) below. 2. W ithin each basin the waters are listed alphabetically and segment descripti ons begin at the headwaters and proceed downstream. 3. To find a stream: i. Determine which major drainage basin the stream is in; ii. Look for the name of the stream in the appropriate table and find the classification; iii. For unnamed or unlisted stre ams, find the stream or other waterbody that the stream of interest flows into and look for the classification of that stream or waterbody. The classification of the stream of interest may then be determined by referring to (b)5 below. If the second stre am or waterbody is also unlisted, repeat the process until a listed stream or waterbody is found. Use (b)5iv below to classify streams entering unlisted lakes. 4. To find a lake or other non -stream waterbody: i. Determine which major drainage basin the waterbody is in; ii. Look for the waterbody name in the appropriate table; iii. If the waterbody is not listed, use (b)5ii, 5iii, 5vi, and 5vii below to determine the appropriate classification.57

5. To find unnamed waterways or waterbodies or named waterways or waterbodies which do not appear in the listing, use the following instructions: i. Unnamed or unlisted freshwater streams that flow into streams classified as FW 2 -TP, FW 2 -TM, or FW 2 - NT take the classification of the classified stream they enter, unl ess the unlisted stream is a PL water which is covered in (b)5vii below. If the stream could be a C1 water, see (b)5vi below. ii. All freshwater lakes, ponds and reservoirs that are five or more acres in surface area, that are not located entirely within the Pinelands Area boundaries (see (b)5vii below) and that are not specifically listed as FW 2 -TP or FW 2 -TM are classified as FW 2 - NT. This includes lakes, ponds and reservoirs on segments of streams which are classified as FW 2 -TM or FW 2 - TP such as Saxton Lake on the Musconetcong River. If the waterbody could be a C1 water, also check (b)5vi below. iii. All freshwater lakes, ponds and reservoirs, that are less than five acres in surface area, upstream of and contiguous with FW 2 -TP or FW 2 -TM streams, and wh ich are not located entirely within the Pinelands Area boundaries (see(b)5vii below) are classified as FW 2 -TM. All other freshwater lakes, ponds and reservoirs that are not otherwise classified in this subsection or the following tables are classified as FW 2 - NT. If the waterbody could be a C1 water, also check (b)5vi below. iv. Unnamed or unlisted streams that enter FW 2 lakes, ponds and reservoirs take the classification of either the listed tributary stream flowing into the lake with the highest classifi cation or the listed tributary stream leaving the lake with the highest classification, whichever has the highest classification, or, if there are no listed tributary or outlet streams to the lake, the first listed stream downstream of the lake. If the st ream is located within the boundaries of the Pinelands Area, see (b)5.vii. below; if it could be a C1 water, also see (b)5vi below. v. Unnamed or unlisted saline waterways and waterbodies are classified as SE1 in the Atlantic Coastal Basin. Unnamed or unl isted saline waterways which enter SE2 or SE3 waters in the Passaic, Hackensack and New York Harbor Complex basin are classified as SE2 unless otherwise classified within Table 3 in (e) below. Freshwater portions of unnamed or unlisted streams entering SE 1, SE2, or SE3 waters are classified as FW 2 - NT. This only applies to waters that are not PL waters (see (b)5vii below). If the waterbody or waterway could be a C1 water, also see (b)5vi below. vi. If the waterway or waterbody of interest flows through or is entirely located within State parks, forests or fish and game lands, Federal wildlife refuges, other special holdings, or is a State shellfish water as defined in this subchapter, the Department's maps should be checked to determine if the waterbody of interest is mapped as a C1 water. If the waterway or waterbody does not appear on the United States Geological Survey quadrangle that the Department used as a base map in its designation of the C1 waters, the Department will determine on a case - by-case b asis whether the waterway or waterbody should be designated as C1. vii. All waterways or waterbodies, or portions of waterways or waterbodies, that are located within the boundaries of the Pinelands Area established at N.J.S.A. 13:18A- 11a are classified as PL unless they are listed as FW 158 waters in Table 6 in (h) below. A tributary entering a PL stream is classified as PL only for those portions of the tributary that are within the Pinelands Area. Lakes are classified as PL only if they are located entire ly within the Pinelands Area. 6. The following 10 classifications are used for the sole purpose of identifying the water quality classification of the waters listed in the tables in (c) through (h) below: i. "FW 1" means freshwaters wholly within Federal or State lands or special holdings that are preserved for posterity and are not subject to manmade wastewater discharges. ii. "FW 2 -TP" means FW 2 trout production. iii. "FW 2 -TM" means FW 2 trout maintenance. iv. "FW 2 - NT" means FW 2 non trout. v. "PL" means Pi nelands W aters. vi. "SE1" means saline estuarine waters whose designated uses are listed in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.12(d). vii."SE2" means saline estuarine waters whose designated uses are listed in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.12(e). viii."SE3" means saline estuarine waters whose designated uses are listed in N.J.A.C. 7:9B - 1.12(f). ix. "SC" means the general surface water classification applied to saline coastal waters. x. FW 2 - NT/SE1 (or a similar designation that combines two classifications) means a waterway in which there may be a salt water/fresh water interface. The exact point of demarcation between the fresh and saline waters must be determined by salinity measurements and is that point where the salinity reaches 3.5 parts per thousand at mean high tide. The stream i s classified as FW 2 - NT in the fresh portions (salinity less than or equal to 3.5 parts per thousand at mean high tide) and SE1 in the saline portions. 7. The following water quality designations are used in Tables 1 through 5 in (c) through (g), respecti vely, below: i. "(C1)" means Category One waters; ii. "(tp)" indicates trout production in waters which are classified as FW 1. This is for information only and does not affect the water quality criteria for those waters; iii. "(tm)" indicates trout mainte nance in waters which are classified as PL or FW 1. For FW 1 waters this is for information only and does not affect the water quality criteria for those waters.59
