| Abstract | Long Description |
Each study conducted by the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) must have an approved Quality Assurance Project Plan. The plan describes the objectives of the study and the procedures to be followed to achieve those objectives. This document describes Ecology′s plan for obtaining water quality and stream sediment data for Goosmus Creek, Ferry County, Washington. Ecology′s Water Quality Program has been notified of a new discharge of mine wastewater into the stream. They have asked Ecology′s Environmental Assessment Program to assess the current (background) condition of the stream, then monitor for three years to determine if the discharge will adversely affect the stream. The parameters tested for will include metals, nutrients, and conventional parameters in the stream water. Metals will also be tested for in stream sediments. |
