| Abstract | Long Description |
Each study conducted by the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) must have an approved Quality Assurance (QA) Project Plan. The plan describes the objectives of the study and the procedures to be followed to achieve those objectives. After completion of the study, a final report describing the study results will be posted to the Internet. This QA Project Plan describes a study being conducted by Ecology in collaboration with the King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks. The primary goal of the study is to characterize PCB concentrations in bottom sediments in the portion of Lake Washington south of Interstate 90. Objectives of the study are to: 1. Identify potential hot spots of PCB concentrations near the shoreline areas of south Lake Washington. 2. Evaluate PCB deposition trends in south Lake Washington by analysis of an age-dated sediment core. |
