Water quality studies underway
The Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) is conducting water quality studies in the Stillaguamish River watershed. During the summer of 2001, three studies will be underway in addition to ongoing water quality monitoring in the basin. One study will assess fecal coliform bacteria, dissolved oxygen, and metals in the main stem and tributaries of the Stillaguamish River. A second study will assess temperature, and a third study will collect information on macroinvertebrate (aquatic insect) communities in the river bottom.
