Abstract

The river survey described in the report was conducted in response to a request from the Nevada State Department of Health for technical assistance in evaluating the self-purification characteristics of the Truckee River below the cities of Reno and Sparks, NV. These two adjacent communities presently discharge treated sewage effluents to the Truckee River. The primary objective of this survey was to obtain information of the type which would be helpful for stream pollution abatement planning purposes.
