Short Description

A Class II Inspection was conducted in February 1990 at the Reynolds Metal Company primary aluminum smelter in Longview. Samples were collected from the five permitted discharges. Receiving water sediments near the principal discharge to the Columbia River (002A) and centrifuge samples of the 002A discharge were also collected. NPDES permit compliance was good during the inspection. Some toxicity was observed in 002A effluent using Daphnia magna, fathead minnow, and Microtox bioassays. Sediment impacts near the 002A discharge were not detected.
