Surface Water Quality Monitoring

Data Summary No surface water quality monitoring data available or inventoried for this minor watershed. MRAP Physical and Chemical Assessment - Water Quality Analysis of the Lower Minnesota River and Selected Tributaries included a 1989-1992 NPS Study (seven tributary and one Minnesota mainstem sites) includes surface water quality data collected through composite sampling during events and grab sampling during baseline flow conditions. Analysis includes the following parameters: carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand (CBOD5), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total phosphrus (TP), total dissolved phosphorus (TDP), ortho phosphorus (OTP), total suspended solids (TSS), turbidity (TRB), nitrate-nitrogen (NO3-N), and total lead (PB).1976-1992 (two MCWW Lower Minnesosta River sites): Grab samples collected at different frequencies and analyzed for different parameters. Temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and specific conductivity have been continuously measured and recorded since 1973.
