Abstract Long Description

The Washington State Department of Ecology is preparing the third issuance of the Boatyard General Permit under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System. While stormwater runoff from local boatyards has been well characterized for copper, other toxic pollutants have not been analyzed. This Quality Assurance Project Plan describes a study that will obtain data on toxic metals and organic compounds in stormwater runoff and adjacent marine sediments at three Puget Sound boatyards during the winter of 2005-2006. The results will be used as the basis for future actions and requirements of the Boatyard General Permit.
