Input Sought On Water Quality

Fri., Dec. 12, 1997

Idaho’s environmental agency is inviting the public to provide information to help it compile a list of Idaho’s rivers, lakes and streams that do not meet water quality standards.

The Division of Environmental Quality is compiling a “303(d) list” under the federal Clean Water Act, which will be used to set priorities for Idaho’s water quality protection efforts.

The state will consider all monitoring information it has gathered and any information received from outside sources when compiling the list.
