| Abstract | Long Description |
The Snoqualmie River basin has been selected for a temperature Total Maximum Daily Load study as it is listed on the 303(d) list of impaired waterbodies for high stream temperatures. This Quality Assurance Project Plan describes the technical investigation used to evaluate stream temperature in the Snoqualmie River from its confluence with the Skykomish River to the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. Continuous temperature, streamflow, channel characteristics, and riparian assessment data collection is planned for the summer of 2006. Data collection will build on previous efforts conducted by a variety of governmental and private organizations. Water temperature will be characterized and load and wasteload allocations established to reduce heat sources in the system to achieve water quality standards. |
