Nebraska Administrative Code › Topic - ENVIRONMENT AND ENERGY › Title 117 - NEBRASKA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY › Chapter 7 - WATER QUALITY STANDARDS FOR WETLANDS › Section 117-7-003 - Wetland Classifications

Current through June 17, 2024
Wetlands are classified into two categories based on hydrological
	 characteristics which affect the attainable beneficial uses. For purposes of
	 these standards, the two general classifications are surface-water overflow
	 wetlands and isolated wetlands. Within each classification, specific wetland
	 complexes and individual wetlands may be identified by their physical,
	 chemical, and biological characteristics and functional values. Wetlands are
	 defined in Chapter 1. Wetlands are identified and delineated using methods
	 contained in the "Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual," Technical
	 Report Y- 87-1, U.S. Army Engineer Waterway Experiment Station, Vicksburg,
	 MS.
003.01 Surface-Water Overflow
  Wetlands.
These are wetlands which exhibit a surface water connection to an
	 adjacent stream or lake on a regular or periodic basis. These wetlands have the
	 potential to provide beneficial uses identical to those of the adjacent stream
	 or lake in addition to the beneficial uses recognized for wetlands (paragraph
	 004). These wetlands will be protected for the beneficial uses of the adjacent
	 stream or lake as assigned in Chapters 5 or 6 in addition to those identified
	 for wetlands. Water quality criteria associated with assigned beneficial uses
	 of adjacent waterbodies (Chapter 4) apply to surface-water overflow wetlands in
	 addition to criteria associated with wetland beneficial uses. When numerical
	 criteria associated with wetland aquatic life beneficial uses differ with
	 aquatic life criteria associated with the adjacent stream or lake, the more
	 stringent criteria apply.
003.02 Isolated Wetlands.
These are wetlands which have no regular or periodic surface water
	 connection to an adjacent stream or lake. The source of water for these
	 wetlands may be either ground water or surface runoff. These wetlands will be
	 protected for the beneficial uses recognized for wetlands (paragraph 004).
	 Water quality criteria associated with wetland beneficial uses apply to
	 isolated wetlands.

Nebraska Administrative Code › Topic - ENVIRONMENT AND ENERGY › Title 118 - GROUND WATER QUALITY STANDARDS AND USE CLASSIFICATION › Chapter 4 - GROUND WATER CLASSIFICATION › Section 118-4-003

Current through June 17, 2024
All ground waters of the State are classified into one of the following
	 classes:
003.01 Class GA. Ground water
  currently being used as a public drinking water supply or is proposed to be
  used as a public drinking water supply is assigned to Class GA. This includes:
003.01A Ground water withdrawn by a public
  water supply system that is used or is intended to be used as drinking water.
  This includes wells used incidentally or intermittently for drinking water and
  wells that are temporarily not being used (but have been used in the past) for
  drinking water. Class GA is determined by delineating a boundary around:
003.01A1. An area, based on local
  hydrogeologic conditions around a well or wellfield, defined by the Department,
  or the local water system involved (as approved by the Department ), including
  wellhead protection areas, as defined by the Department through the Nebraska
  Wellhead Protection Program.
003.01A2. An area at least as large as and
  encompassing the entirety of that described by 003.01A3. below designated
  through local ordinances, if 003.01A1. above has not been determined;
  or
003.01A3. The area within a
  1,000-foot radius of a single well or the area within a 1,000-foot distance of
  the perimeter of a wellfield, if neither 003.01A1. nor 003.01A2. above has been
  determined.
