   EWQ values represent data collected twice per month from May through September 2000-2004. Total number of samples varied by parameter, however, due to design and sampling constraints.

   * Wastewater treatment facility projects subject to the no measurable change requirement must demonstrate no measurable change to EWQ for this parameter. Implementation guidance should be consulted.

   ** EWQ does not meet DRBC water quality criterion, state water quality criterion or both.

   *** Based on laboratory 'J' values reported below the 0.05 lower reporting limit.
