Abstract Long Description

This briefing paper summarizes the water quality studies conducted by the Department of Ecology Environmental Investigations and Laboratory Services Program (EILS) over the last ten years in the Cedar/Green Water Quality Management Area. The area includes Water Resources Inventory Areas 8 and 9, the Cedar and Green river watersheds, respectively. The purpose of the review is to provide EILS' contribution to what is known about this region and identify water quality issues that may require monitoring or intensive studies over the next two years.

This evaluation is part of an agency-wide scoping effort for Ecology's watershed approach to water quality management. The scoping process represents the first year of a five-year process, culminating in pollution prevention and control actions by year five.
