Water Quality for the Protection of Aquatic Life
Freshwater
Concentration (µg/L)	Narrative
2.Turbidity clear flow Maximum increase of 8 NTUs from background levels for a short-term exposure (e.g., 24-h period). Maximum average increase of 2 NTUs from background levels for a longer term exposure (e.g., 30-d period). high flow or turbid waters Maximum increase of 8 NTUs from background levels at any one time when background levels are between 8 and 80 NTUs. Should not increase more than 10% of background levels when background is > 80 NTUs.
