| Abstract | Long Description |
The Department of Ecology′s Environmental Investigations and Laboratory Services Program (EILS) reviewed water quality information on the Kitsap Basin Watershed. The Kitsap Basin Water Quality Management Area (WRIA #15) consists of the Kitsap peninsula and adjacent marine waters. The purpose of the review is to describe what is known about this region and identify water quality issues that may require monitoring or intensive studies over the next two years. The review draws primarily on studies conducted by EILS during the past 10 years. This evaluation is part of an agency-wide scoping and data collection effort being done as part of the watershed approach to water quality management, a five-year process culminating in issuing water quality permits and implementing other pollution prevention and control actions. |
