| Abstract | Long Description |
The Old Stillaguamish River Channel (OSRC) is one of two channels connecting the Stillaguamish River to Puget Sound in Western Washington State. Low, freshwater inflow during the dry season causes the channel to function like a tidal slough. Segments of the OSRC were included on the 303(d) lists. Two modifications have recently been made with the potential to affect water quality, including a reverse tide gate and upgrades to the City of Stanwood Wastewater Treatment Plant. The primary objective of the Old Stillaguamish River Channel Total maximum Daily Load is to determine the assimilative capacity of the OSRC and recommend wasteload and load allocations to address the 2004 Water Quality Assessment 303(d) List. |
