Water Quantity*	Medium flow stress; therefore, work with those communities in sub-basins experiencing flow stress to plan for future water supply and habitat protection needs.  These are current conditions which are expected to degrade to "high flow stress" by 2020.	DEM/ DEP/ SRF/ Municipalities	604B/ EO 418	I to L
* Medium flow stress means that the net 7Q10 outflow from the sub-basin equals or exceeds the estimated natural 7Q10. 7Q10 is the lowest consecutive 7 day streamflow that is likely to occur in a ten year period in a particular river segment.  * High stress means that the net average August outflow from the sub-basin equals or exceeds the estimated natural August average flow.
