Abstract |
New technical developments in the field of water quality assessment and a reordering of water quality priorities prompted a revision of Water Quality Assessment: A Screening Methodology for Nondesignated 208 Areas (EPA-600/9-77-023). The utility of the revised manual is enhanced by the inclusion of information on the accumulation, transport, and fate of toxic chemicals in the environment. The user is now capable of assessing the loading and fate of conventional pollutants (temperature, biochemical oxygen demand-dissolved oxygen, nutrients, and sediments) and toxic pollutants in streams, impoundments and estuaries. |
