BASIS AND PURPOSE
As a result of major rulemaking hearings in May and July, 2001, the Commission adopted extensive revisions to the water quality designation, classifications and standards for the waters in this basin. Subsequent to the filing of the final action documents resulting from that rulemaking, minor error were identified in the published revisions. Errors in the water quality designation for San Juan segment 10, manganese standard for Animas River segment 4a, the segment description for Animas River segment 4b, and typographical errors for Animas River segments 9 and 12a were corrected in this rulemaking.
