Abstract
A biological survey of the Smith River from Virginia Route 704 Bridge to its confluence with the Dan River at Leaksville, NC was conducted between September 28 and October 2, 1970. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of releases made from the Philpott Dam and waste discharges from the Bassett-Martinsville, VA area on the biota of the Smith River. The biological parameters used to determine water quality were the various benthic macroinvertebrates, composed primarily of immature insect forms.
