Section 302.658  Stream Flow for Application of Human Nonthreshold Criterion

 

The HNC applies at all times except during periods when flows are less than the harmonic mean flow (Qhm), as determined by:  

 

Qhm = N / SUM(1/Qi)

 

Where:

 

Qhm

=

harmonic mean flow,

N

=

number of daily values for streamflows, and

Qi

=

daily streamflow value on day i.
