aesthetic quality of the State’s aquatic environment.

Ex-

cept as otherwise provided in this Chapter,

 all waters of

the State shall meet the following standards:

(a)

tion shall not exceed 100 pico curies per

Secondary Contact and Indigenous Aquatic Life Waters are

those waters not suited for general use activities but

which will be appropriate for all secondary contact uses

and which will be capable of supporting an indigenous

aquatic life limited only by the physical configuration of

the body of water, characteristics and origin of the water

and the presence of contaminants in amounts that do not

exceed the app~ea~eRule 205 water quality standards.

The following are designated as Secondary Contact and

Indigenous Aquatic Life Waters:

(a)

 The Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal;

(b)

 The Calumet

(c)

 The Little Calumet River from its junction with the

Grand Calumet River to the Calumet
