Description:

In 1975, cooperative water quality surveys were conducted on the Weiser and Payette Rivers (17050122, 17050124) by Idaho Department of Health and Welfare and the Environmental Protection Agency. The area is located in the Middle Snake River Basin in Idaho. Surveys were done during the summer irrigation season and during the higher flow non-irrigation winter period to determine the effect of irrigation activities and point source discharges upon water quality. The survey consisted of monitoring stream water quality, sources relating to municipal, industrial, and agricultural activities, and biological populations at pre-determined locations within each river system.
