Turbidity Value standard
 

I monitor chemical water quality as well as turbidity for waterways in Rockbridge County, VA. Since higher levels of sediment as measured by turbidity greatly affects the health of a waterway, I would like to have a standard set for acceptable turbidity value throughout the state.

Thank you,
