Type of Use	Total Coliform Limits (daily sampling is required)	Treatment Required	Comment (in relation to MIDS)
Irrigation of fodder, fiber, and seed crops; orchards/vineyardsa; processed food cropsb, non-food bearing trees; ornamental nursery stock/sod farmsc	No Limits Established	Oxidation	Most likely applies to non-food bearing trees; ornamental nursery stock/sod farms with restricted access
Irrigation of pasture for miling animals, landscape areas (controlled access); ornamental nursery stock and sod farms where public access not restricted); landscape impoundments	≤23/100mL (running 7-day median) ≤240/100mL (in no more than one sample in any 30-day period)	Oxidation Disinfection	This includes Cemeteries, freeway landscaping, restricted access golf courses, and other controlled access areas
Irrigation of food cropsa	≤2.2/100mL (running 7-day median) ≤23/100mL (in no more than one sample in any 30-day period)	Oxidation Disinfection
Irrigation of food cropsd; Open access landscape areas; Decorative fountains	≤2.2/100mL (running 7-day median) ≤23/100mL (in no more than one sample in any 30-day period) 240/100mL (maximum)	Oxidation Coagulatione Filtratione Disinfection	This includes parks, playgrounds, schoolyards, residential landscaping, unrestricted access golf courses, and other uncontrolled access areas; This may also apply to scenarios such as community gardens, etc.

a- No contact between reclaimed water and edible portion of crop

b- Food crops that undergo commercial pathogen destruction

c- No irrigation 14 days prior to harvesting, sale, or allowing public access

d- Contact between water and edible portion of crop including edible roots
