Abstract

In order to protect against further deterioration of Puget Sound, there is a need to establish a sensitive monitoring program to document either improvement or degradation of environmental quality. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has taken the initiative in this effort by sponsoring work to identify existing monitoring programs and to establish a new long-term monitoring program for Puget Sound waters. This report is an outgrowth of an EPA/NOAA interagency meeting, during which it was recognized that existing environmental quality data should be considered in design of the long-term monitoring program. The objective of this task is to identify existing water quality and related data for Puget Sound, the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Strait of Georgia, and to present this information. A wide diversity of chemical and biological data is included. Report number PB84-242627, Water Quality Dependent Water Uses in Puget Sound, identifies the water quality dependent uses and provides some background on each use. PB84-242635, Identification of Existing Water Quality Data, describes available data and provides information on contact persons.
