Impact/Purpose:
To provide summary statistics on a limited set of water quality parameters as measured at the St. Francis Rain Garden site in the Lick Run Valley as it pertains to MSD's Project Groundwork.
Description:
This interim data reported is being provided per request to the Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD) to provide summary statistics on a limited set of water quality parameters as measured at the St. Francis Rain Garden site in the Lick Run Valley as it pertains to MSD's Project Groundwork. Data in this summary was collected under QAPP # L16256-QP-1-4 and conforms to the data quality requirements and procedures therein. Precipitation data is provided for context on the character of the events sampled and is preliminary data provided to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) by the United States Geologic Survey (USGS) using a HOBO data logging tipping bucket rain gauge at the St. Francis site. The precipitation data reported for 6/4/14 does not originate from the USGS HOBO data logging tipping bucket rain gauge, as this data has not yet been reported to USEPA. The 6/4/14 precipitation data in this report originates from www.weatherunderground.com. All precipitation data may be subject to change when the final data report and conclusions are prepared and drawn. Loads have not been calculated or provided, only the minimum, maximum, median and mean concentrations values for sampling points in the system for three storm events.
