Figure 3-6 Major Watersheds and Rivers in Montana. Surface Water Quality- All Land Offices-- Surface water quality varies widely across M ontana. Because of geology, streams and rivers in western M ontana are generally high quality water, with low levels of dissolved solids and sediment. Streams and rivers flowing through eastern M ontana are slower, lower gradient, and often contain high quantities of sediment and dissolved solids from natural conditions and agricultural runoff; including nitrates from fertilizer and manure. The Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services (M D PH H S) has developed standards limiting the levels of pollutants released into surface water. Water quality standards are based on stream classification, and are set by administrative rule (ARM ). M ontana water bodies are classified according to the present and beneficial usesthatthey normally would be capable of supporting. The state Water- Use Classification System (ARM ) identifies the following beneficial uses: o D rinking, culinary use, and food processing o Aquatic Life support for fishes and associated aquatic life, waterfowl, and furbearers Final Real Estate Management Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement Chapter 3 Page 3-58 N ovember 19, 2004.
