Abstract:

This layer shows only attaining segments of the Integrated List.  The Streams Integrated List represents stream assessments in an integrated format for the Clean Water Act Section 305(b) reporting and Section 303(d) listing.  Streams are bodies of flowing surface water that collectively form a network that drains a catchment or basin. PA DEP protects 4  stream water uses: aquatic life,   fish consumption, potable water supply, and recreation. The 305(b) layers  represents stream segments that have been evaluated for attainment of those uses. If a stream segment is not attaining any one of its  4 uses, it is considered impaired.  

·	Aquatic Life use attainment - The integrity reflected in any component of the biological community. (i.e. fish or fish food organisms)
·	 Fish Consumption use attainment  - The risk posed to people by the consumption of aquatic organisms (ex. fish, shellfish, frogs, turtles, crayfish, etc.) 
·	Recreational use attainment - The risk associated with human recreation activities in or on a water body. (i.e. exposure to bacteria and other disease causing organisms through water contact recreation like swimming or water skiing)
·	Potable Water Supply use attainment - The risk posed to people by the ingestion of drinking water


Segments that have appeared on an approved Category 5 Integrated Listing are the entries labeled as approved. Integrated Lists are submitted for approval every other year. Segments entered subsequent to the latest approved Category 5 listing are labeled tentative. After appearing on an approved listing, the tentative entries move to approved.  The Stream Integrated List is provided as two separate layers determined if the stream is attaining or not attaining its designated uses.

DEP Streams Integrated List layer is maintained by the PADEP Office of Water Management, Bureau of Water Supply & Wastewater Management, Water Quality Assessment and Standards Division.  The layer is based on the High Resolution National Hydrography Dataset (NHD).  Additional update information is provided by Bureau of Watershed Management, Water Use Planning Division.

Purpose:

Layer representing the streams of Pennsylvania with attributes needed in PADEP managed programs.

Supplemental_Information:

Within the DEP network this layer is maintained on a nightly basis reflecting the previous days production database.  Some older assessment records maybe archived.  If they are archived those assessments will no longer be displayed in this layer.  Those records with values of 1 or 2 in the field INT_WAVE_SYMBOL field are considered to be tentative and have not been approved by central office staff of the Department.
