Title: |
Include comprehensive strategy for limiting impacts to aquatic systems in new RMP |
Text: |
"The new RMP should include a comprehensive strategy for
limiting impacts to aquatic systems, including numeric standards on levels of hydrographic change (through both depletions and additions), change in water quality (both turbidity and chemical composition), and aquatic indicator species that can serve as the "canary in the coal mine," triggering changes in management activities before an ecological disaster can occur." |
