Abstract
The primary objectives of the study were to recommend pollution control measures which would insure adequate aquatic growth in the study area and also insure a high quality raw water source for the city of Chattanooga. Various chemical and physical waste parameters of South Chickamauga and Citico Creeks, and Nickajack Lake were measured. Bioassay, hydrological and water quality studies were performed and these data were evaluated in order to define the causes of excessive chlorine demands at the water plant and to recommend necessary waste abatement measures.
