This designation <br />pertains only to natural wetlands and does not include those <br />wetlands that were constructed for environmental <br />remediation. Created Wetlands as defined in section III, (H) <br />shall be subject only to the narrative standards set forth <br />in section V unless the Tribal Council has adopted, after <br />public hearing, the Wetlands classification and appropriate <br />numeric standards. <br /> <br />(B) Qualifiers <br /> <br />The following qualifiers may be appended to any designation <br />to indicate special considerations. Where a qualifier applies, it <br />will be appended to'the use designation; for example, "Class 1, <br />Warm Water ,Aquatic Life (Goal)". <br /> <br />(1) Goal -A qualifier which indicates that the waters are <br />presently not fully suitable but are intended to become <br />fully suitable for the designated use. "Goal" will be <br />used to indicate that a temporary modification for one or <br />more of the underlying numeric criteria has been <br />granted. <br /> <br />(2) Seasonal - A qualifier which indicates that the water may <br />only be suitable for a designated use during certain <br />periods of the year. During those periods when water is <br />in the stream, the criteria specified for the designated <br />use sha!ll apply. <br /> <br />(3) Interrupted Flow - A qualifier which indicates that due to <br />natural or human induced conditions the continuity of flow is <br />broken not necessarily according to a seasonal schedule. This <br />qualifier appended to a designation indicates that the flow <br />conditions still permit the designated use during periods of <br />flow. T~e presence of water diversions in a stream does not <br />change the designations and criteria and the criteria do not <br />require 'that flow be maintained in the stream. <br /> <br />(C) Areas Requiring Special Protection <br /> <br />In special cases where protection of designated uses requires <br />criteria not provided by the normal water quality <br />requirements above, special criteria may be assigned after <br />public notice and hearing. Cases where special protection may <br />be necessary, include but are not limited to wildlife <br />preserves and water bodies endangered by eutrophication. <br /> <br />A <br /> <br />-,] <br /> <br />j <br /> <br />,9 <br />? <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />;\ <br /> <br />9 <br /> <br />
