Salinity of fresh, brackish and sea water

Saline in Water

fresh water (typical city water in United States) : < 100 ppm
water supply typicaly restricted to : 500 ppm
fresh water - official salt concentration limits in drinking water US: 1000 ppm
typical limit agriculture irrigation : 2000 ppm
brackish water, mildly : 1000 - 5,000 ppm
brackish water, moderately : 5000 - 15000 ppm
brackish water, heavily : 15000 - 35000 ppm
