| Abstract |
A study was made of the pollution problems in the Rock Creek Sub-Basin of the Potomac River Basin. The Chesapeake Field Station was directed to make a determination of water quality in Rock Creek and an inventory of waste outfalls. Rock Creek drains a watershed area of approximately 77 square miles and has its source south of Laytonsville in Montgomery County, Maryland. The lower ten stream miles of Rock Creek drain approximately 16 square miles of the highly urban District of Columbia. Data for evaluation of the bacteriological, biological, and other water quality characteristics of the stream were obtained by field surveys and from records of health agencies in the area. |
