Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
The several terms, words or phrases hereinafter mentioned
						shall be construed as follows:
(a)
					 Class as appearing in table I, as the letters A, B or C opposite each
					 specifically designated waters, means class A, B or C, as the case may be, as
					 set forth in Part 701, supra.
(b)
					 Standards as appearing in table I, as the letters A, B or C opposite each
					 specifically designated waters, shall mean the standards of quality and purity
					 established for class A, B or C, as the case may be, as set forth in Part 701,
					 supra. The symbol (T) after any class designation shall mean that the
					 designated waters are trout waters and that the dissolved oxygen specification
					 for trout waters shall apply thereto. The symbol (TS) after any class
					 designation shall mean that the designated waters are suitable for trout
					 spawning and that the dissolved oxygen specification for trout spawning waters
					 shall apply thereto.
(c) Waters
					 index number as appearing in table I shall mean that number which has been
					 applied to any specifically designated waters appearing on the maps set forth
					 in section
					 801.6, infra.
(d) Name as appearing in table I shall mean
					 the name, if any, by which the specifically designated waters are generally
					 known and which name, if any, appears on the reference map. In cases of
					 specifically designated waters which have no name, the named tributary to which
					 the unnamed waters are tributary is indicated so far as possible. In the tables
					 in the column headed "Name", the unnamed water to which an unnamed tributary is
					 directly tributary is referenced so far as possible to a specific item number.
					 In the tables, an item number is assigned consecutively to each specifically
					 designated waters.
(e) Description
					 as appearing in table I shall mean a brief indication as to location of the
					 specifically designated waters so that by reference to reference maps such
					 waters may be located without reference to their waters index numbers. Entries
					 under the column headed "Description" also include designations of sections of
					 a stream to which a particular assignment of a class and standards shall
					 apply.
(f) The map appearing in
					 section
					 801.6, infra, designates
					 Olean, New York (1943), Belmont, New York (1943), Franklinville, New York
					 (1947) and Ellicottville, New York (1947), editions of the quadrangles
					 published by the U.S. Geological Survey which were combined and partially
					 reproduced with superimposed tracing in black of streams and other waters and
					 waters index numbers.
(g) Tributary
					 or tributaries. Tributary shall mean any stream, lake, pond or other body of
					 surface water which flows into any other stream, lake, pond or other body of
					 surface water. In the table under the column headed "Waters Index Number" where
					 no tributaries are mentioned, the specifically designated waters shall include
					 only the stream, pond or other body of water designated by such waters index
					 number; where tributaries are mentioned after the waters index number, the
					 specifically designated waters shall include the stream, pond or other body of
					 water designated by such waters index number and all tributaries and
					 subtributaries thereof which are shown on the reference map, unless exceptions
					 are expressly stated.
(h) All
					 streams or other bodies of water which appear as lines, to indicate natural
					 waters, on the reference maps herein, and which are not specifically designated
					 in table I, shall be assigned the same classes and standards of quality and
					 purity as the specifically designated waters to which they are directly
					 tributary.
(i) All streams or other
					 bodies of water which are not shown on the reference maps herein shall be
					 assigned to class D, as set forth in Part 701, supra, except that any
					 continuous flowing natural stream which is not shown on the reference maps
					 shall have the same classification and assigned standards as the waters to
					 which it is directly tributary.
(j)
					 The Olean Creek drainage basin shall be deemed to include the following areas:
					 all land and water areas the natural surface water drainage from which is
					 directly or indirectly tributary to the mouth of Olean Creek at its junction
					 with the Allegheny River.
(k) The
					 term trout as used in this Part means any fish in the following genera:
					 Coregonus, Oncorhyncus, Prosopium, Salmo, Salvelinus and Thymallus.
