(B) Porosity, nernteability, transmissivity, water-holding capacity. <br />• saturated thickness and volume of aquifers associated with streams, including alluvial aquifers, perched aquifers, <br />and other water bearing zones found beneath valley floors; and <br />(C) Moisture held in soils or the plant growth medium within the <br />alluvial valley floor, and the physical and chemical properties of the subsoil that provide for sustained vegetation <br />growth or cover during extended periods of low precipitation. <br />(iii) Characteristics supporting the function of regulating [he (low of <br />water which include, but are no[ limited to: <br />(A) The geometry and physical character of the valley, expressed in <br />terms of [he longitudinal profile and slope of the valley and the channel, the sinuosity of the chamtel, the cross <br />section, slopes and proportions of the channels, flood plains and low terraces, the nature and stability of the stream <br />banks and the vegetation established in the channels and along the stream banks and floor plains; <br />(B) The nature of surface flows as shown by the frequency and <br />duration of Flows of representative magnitude including low Flows and floods; and <br />(C) The nature of interchange of water between streams, their <br />associated alluvial aquifers and arty bedrock aquifers as shown by [he rate and amount of water supplied by the <br />stream [o associated alluvial and bedrock aquifers (i.e., recharge) and by the rates and amounts of water supplied by <br />aquifers to [he stream (i.e., baseflow); and <br />(iv) Characteristics which make water available and which include, but <br />are not limited to the presence of land forms including Flood plains and terraces suitable for agricultural activities. <br />r1 <br />~J <br />Permit Renewal No.3 2.06-12.1 3/5/99 <br />
