Dear Ms. Gunn:

Please adopt strong antidegradation rules. Do not allow pressure from the state’s

big polluters to change the proposal that prohibits the lowering of water quality on

streams meeting standards and allows the designation of discharge free “outstanding

water” areas.

We must preserve more and pollute less.

Sincerely,

Linda Zarn erletti
