| Abstract |
An investigation of the Calumet area of Lake Michigan was conducted. The objective was to determine trends in water quality, to determine effluent loads entering the Lake, and to predict reductions in effluents needed to achieve Lake water quality standards. The report describes the status of industrial and municipal effluent sources. Effluent data were compiled from NPDES permit applications and operating reports. These were checked by a field sampling program. Water quality data were compiled from several sources. Field measurements were made in the Indiana Harbor Canal (IHC) and at 16 Lake stations. The report contains chapters assessing the impact of each of the more important pollutants, and gives recommendations for reduction of some effluent loads. Appendices are included on the biological impact of pollutants on the Calumet area of Lake Michigan. |
