Critical Water Quality Management Area definition

Critical Water Quality Management Area means a watershed, or a portion of a watershed, in which application of minimum state or national wastewater and water quality management practices and procedures cannot be reasonable expected to result in attainment of water quality goals, attainment of water quality standards, protection of resources of the state, prevention of excessive sediment deposition in stream beds, lakes or reservoirs, or prevention of destruction of fishery habitat; or an area in which additional treatment and control of pollutants can result in additional cost effective benefits.
