Interim Economic Guidance for Water Quality Standards Workbook
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice of availability.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA now has available Interim Economic Guidance for Water
Quality Standards Workbook, (EPA 823-B-95-002). This interim document
provides guidance with respect to the economic considerations
incorporated in the water quality standards regulation affecting uses,
variances, and the antidegradation policy.
The purpose of this interim guidance is to assist States, Tribes
and other affected parties in understanding the economic factors that
may be considered and the types of tests that can be used to determine
if a designated use can be attained, if a variance is warranted, or if
degradation of high quality water is warranted. States may use
alternative economic analysis from that offered in the interim
guidance.
EPA plans to revise this guidance from time to time based on
experience gained in its implementation. Comments on this guidance are
welcome at any time.
