Remark:
The classification of A1, A2, B1, B2 for surface water sources to assess and control water quality the various purposes of water use, sorted
by descending quality level
A1 - Use for domestic water supply purposes (after applying conventional treatment), conservation of aquatic plants and for other purposes such as type A2, B1 and B2
A2 - For the purpose of domestic water supply, but must apply appropriate processing technology or the purpose of use as type B1 and B2
B1 - For irrigated agriculture, irrigation purposes or other purposes which require the same water quality or purposes as type B2
B2 – Waterway transport and other purposes with low quality of water requirements
