Abstract Long Description

Lakes Campbell and Erie were listed by the State of Washington under Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act for non-attainment of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) human health criteria for total phosphorus. TMDLs for both Lake Campbell and Lake Erie were submitted by Ecology and approved by EPA in 1997. This QAPP describes the procedure that will be used to monitor the effectiveness of the TMDL.

The objectives of the study are to determine if past restoration treatments have been effective in restoring Lakes Campbell and Erie to their designated uses and whether current phosphorus concentrations are consistent with the load allocations set in the TMDL.
