| Short Description |
The Washington State Department of Ecology collected monthly water quality information at 85 stream monitoring stations during Water Year 2002 (October 1, 2001 - September 30, 2002), though four stations were only monitored during part of the year. We also collected 30-minute interval temperature data at 52 sites from June through September 2002. The principal goals of this ongoing monitoring program are to characterize the rivers and streams of Washington State and to track changes in water quality. (Also see abstract below) | |

| Abstract | Long Description |
The Washington State Department of Ecology collected monthly water quality information at 85 stream monitoring stations during Water Year (WY) 2002 (October 1, 2001 through September 30, 2002), though four stations were only monitored during part of the year. We also collected 30-minute interval temperature data at 52 sites from June through September 2002. The principal goals of this ongoing monitoring program are to characterize the rivers and streams of Washington State and to track changes in water quality. This report is intended to document methods and data quality, and to present the data for WY 2002. This year′s annual report also includes a discussion of trend power. A description of our long-term monitoring program and access to historical data can be found on the Ecology Internet web site at http://www.ecy.wa.gov/ under "Environmental Info." and "Watersheds". |
