The NFPA 70E Standard details multiple levels of Hazard Risk Categories (HRC) [see table 1.1], also called Levels. The greater the risk: the higher the HRC. Arc Rating is the factor that indicates which HRC is necessary, and can be measured in either ATPV or EBT.
The optimal pH range for brook trout appears to be 6.5-8.0,with a tolerance range of 4.0-9.5.Brook trout occur in waters with a wide range of alkalinity and specificconductance, although high alkalinity and high specific conductance usuallyincrease brook trout production (Cooper and Scherer 1967).
In general, the higher the alkalinity, the higher the pH; the lower the alkalinity, the lower the pH â¶. The recommended pH range for most fish is between 6.0 and 9.0 with a minimum alkalinity of 20 mg/L, with ideal CaCO3 levels between 75 and 200 mg/L Â²â°.
