Implementation Guidance for Ambient Water Quality Criteria for Bacteria (Draft)

A draft of the Implementation Guidance for Ambient Water Quality Criteria for Bacteria is available. When final, the Implementation Guidance for Ambient Water Quality Criteria for Bacteria will guide state, territory, and authorized tribal water quality programs in adopting and implementing bacteriological water quality criteria to protect waters designated for recreation. We expect that this document will also serve as a valuable resource for state and local beach program managers and interested citizens. We expect to publish the final document soon.
