Abstract |
Investigations of the water quality in the reach of the South Platte River affected by the sugar mill waste discharges were conducted in order to define conditions prior to and during the sugar-beet processing season. Waste sources were also evaluated. Observed water quality conditions are compared to applicable water quality regulations. Violations of water quality standards are defined. Remedial measures to abate existing interstate pollution that is in violation of water quality standards are recommended. |
