Water Quality Standards for Pennsylvania

This rule establishes water quality standards applicable to waters of the United States in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. EPA is promulgating this rule pursuant to Section 303(c)(4) of the Clean Water Act (CWA). This rule establishes an antidegradation policy for Pennsylvania, making available additional water quality protection than currently provided by the Commonwealth's antidegradation policy including the ``Special Protection Waters Program,'' which EPA disapproved in part in 1994.
