## Abstract

EPA is promulgating a primary contact recreation use designation for 1,056 waters, an expected aquatic life use designation for one of these waters, and a secondary contact recreation use designation for 230 waters in the State of Kansas to replace the use designations for those waters that EPA disapproved in 1998. EPA is promulgating these final water quality standards for the State of Kansas at this time pursuant to a court order requiring the Administrator to sign a final rule by June 30, 2003. Once the State of Kansas submits the necessary analyses and any corresponding changes to its water quality standards for specific waters and EPA approves that submission, EPA will initiate a rulemaking to withdraw this regulation for those waters.
