Annual average ten-year low flow or 365Q 10. "Annual average ten-year 1.7 low flow" or "365Q 10 " means the lowest average 365-day flow with a once in ten-year 1.8 recurrence interval. A 365Q 10 is derived using the same methods used to derive a 7Q 10, and 1.9 the guidelines regarding period of record for flow data and estimating a 7Q 10 apply equally 1.10 to determining a 365Q 10, as described in subpart Subp. 2b. Cultivated wild rice water. "Cultivated wild rice water" means a contained 1.12 area where water levels are artificially manipulated for producing wild rice Subp. 2c. Existing use. "Existing use" has the meaning given in part , 1.14 subpart [For text of subps 3 to 6, see M.R.] 1.16 Subp. 6a. Water identification number or. "Water identification number" or 1.17 "" means a unique identifier used by the agency to identify a surface water. For rivers 1.18 and streams, a is an eight-digit hydrologic unit code, followed by three digits that 1.19 further define the reach of water being identified. For lakes, wetlands, and reservoirs, a 1.20 is a two-digit county identification code, followed by a four-digit unique lake number, 1.21 followed by a two-digit basin identification code. For purposes of part , a 1.22 identifies a specific water body or reach of a river or stream Subp. 6b. Wild rice. "Wild rice" means plants of the species Zizania palustris or 1.24 Zizania aquatica. wq-rule4-15h Approved by Revisor

6 6.1 [For text of subitems (15) and (16), see M.R.] 6.2 [For text of items B to E, see M.R.] 6.3 [For text of subp 7, see M.R.] SPECIFIC WATER QUALITY STANDARDS FOR CLASS 4 WATERS 6.5 OF THE STATE; AGRICULTURE AND WILDLIFE. 6.6 Subpart 1. General. The numeric and narrative water quality standards in this part 6.7 prescribe the qualities or properties of the waters of the state that are necessary for the 6.8 agriculture and wildlife designated public uses and benefits. Wild rice is an aquatic plant 6.9 resource found in certain waters within the state. The harvest and use of grains from this 6.10 plant serve as a food source for wildlife and humans. In recognition of the ecological 6.11 importance of this resource, and in conjunction with Minnesota Indian tribes, selected wild 6.12 rice waters have been specifically identified [WR] and listed in part , subpart The quality of these waters and the aquatic habitat necessary to support the propagation and 6.14 maintenance of wild rice plant species must not be materially impaired or degraded. If the 6.15 standards in this part are exceeded in waters of the state that have the class 4 designation, 6.16 it is considered indicative of a polluted condition which that is actually or potentially 6.17 deleterious, harmful, detrimental, or injurious with respect to the designated uses Subp. 2. Class 4A waters. The quality of class 4A waters of the state shall be such 6.19 as to permit their use for irrigation without significant damage or adverse effects upon any 6.20 crops or vegetation usually grown in the waters or area, including truck garden crops. The 6.21 following standards shall be used as a guide in determining the suitability of the waters for 6.22 such uses, together with the recommendations contained in Handbook 60 published by the 6.23 Salinity Laboratory of the United States Department of Agriculture, and any revisions, 6.24 amendments, or supplements to it: 6.25 Substance, Characteristic, or 6.26 Pollutant Class 4A Standard

7 7.1 Bicarbonates (HCO 3 ) 5 milliequivalents per liter 7.2 Boron (B) 7.3 ph, minimum value 7.4 ph, maximum value 7.5 Specific conductance 7.6 Total dissolved salts 7.7 Sodium (Na) 0.5 mg/l ,000 micromhos per centimeter at 25 C 700 mg/l 60% of total cations as milliequivalents per liter 7.8 Sulfates (SO 4 ) 10 mg/l, applicable to water used for production of 7.9 wild rice during periods when the rice may be 7.10 susceptible to damage by high sulfate levels Radioactive materials Not to exceed the lowest concentrations permitted to 7.12 be discharged to an uncontrolled environment as 7.13 prescribed by the appropriate authority having control 7.14 over their use [For text of subps 3 and 4, see M.R.] 7.16 Subp. 5. Class 4D waters; wild rice waters A. The standards in items B and C apply to wild rice waters identified in part 7.18 to protect the use of the grain of wild rice as a food source for wildlife and 7.19 humans. The numeric sulfate standard for wild rice is designed to maintain sulfide 7.20 concentrations in pore water at 120 micrograms per liter or less. The commissioner must 7.21 maintain all numeric sulfate standards for wild rice waters on a public Web site B. The annual average concentration of sulfate in a wild rice water must not exceed 7.23 the concentration established as the calculated sulfate standard under subitem (1) or alternate 7.24 sulfate standard under subitem (2) more than one year out of every ten years (1) The calculated sulfate standard, expressed as milligrams of sulfate ion 7.26 per liter (mg SO 4 2- /L), is determined by the following equation:

8 8.1 iron Calculated sulfate standard = x 8.3 organic carbon Where: 8.5 (a) organic carbon is the amount of organic matter in dry sediment. The 8.6 concentration is expressed as percentage of carbon, as determined using the method for 8.7 organic carbon analysis in Sampling and Analytical Methods for Wild Rice Waters, which 8.8 is incorporated by reference in item E; 8.9 (b) iron is the amount of extractable iron in dry sediment. The 8.10 concentration is expressed as micrograms of iron per gram of dry sediment, as determined 8.11 using the method for extractable iron in Sampling and Analytical Methods for Wild Rice 8.12 Waters; 8.13 (c) sediment samples are collected using the procedures established in 8.14 Sampling and Analytical Methods for Wild Rice Waters; and 8.15 (d) the calculated sulfate standard is the lowest sulfate value resulting 8.16 from the application of the equation to each pair of organic carbon and iron values collected 8.17 and analyzed in accordance with units (a) to (c) (2) The commissioner may establish an alternate sulfate standard for a wild 8.19 rice water when the ambient sulfate concentration is above the calculated sulfate standard 8.20 and data demonstrates that sulfide concentrations in pore water are 120 micrograms per 8.21 liter or less. Data must be gathered using the procedures specified in Sampling and Analytical 8.22 Methods for Wild Rice Waters, which is incorporated by reference in item E. The alternate 8.23 sulfate standard established must be either the annual average sulfate concentration in the 8.24 ambient water or a level of sulfate the commissioner has determined will maintain the sulfide 8.25 concentrations in pore water at or below 120 micrograms per liter

9 9.1 C. The commissioner may establish a site-specific sulfate standard using the 9.2 process in part , subpart 7, or when the commissioner determines that 9.3 the beneficial use is not harmed. This decision must be based on reliable and representative 9.4 data characterizing the health and viability of the wild rice in the wild rice water. 9.5 D. Discharges of sulfate in sewage, industrial waste, or other wastes affecting 9.6 class 4D waters must be controlled so that the numeric sulfate standard for wild rice is 9.7 maintained at stream flows that are equal to or greater than 365Q E. Sampling and Analytical Methods for Wild Rice Waters, Minnesota Pollution 9.9 Control Agency (2017), is incorporated by reference. The document is not subject to frequent 9.10 change and is available on the agency's Web site at and through the Minitex interlibrary 9.12 loan system Subp. 6. Class 4D [WR]; selected wild rice waters. In recognition of the ecological 9.14 importance of the wild rice resource and in conjunction with Minnesota Indian tribes, 9.15 selected class 4D wild rice waters have been specifically identified [WR] and listed in part , subpart 1. The quality of these waters and the aquatic habitat necessary to support 9.17 propagation and maintenance of wild rice plant species must not be materially impaired or 9.18 degraded CLASSIFICATIONS FOR SURFACE WATERS IN MAJOR DRAINAGE 9.20 BASINS Subpart 1.
