Northern Lake Washington Streams Report
The Water Quality Monitoring of Northern Lake Washington Streams Report summarizes 20 years of water quality data collected from stream sites, primarily in the northern Lake Washington basin. Monitoring took place under the Major Lakes and Streams Monitoring Program. This program is designed to protect the significant investment in water quality improvement and protection made by the people of King County.
The intent of this report is to update previous reporting efforts (Metro, 1993). The report has
several specific purposes/objectives:
- Analyze data for long-term water quality trends;
- Determine compliance with State and Federal water quality criteria;
- Evaluate the level of metals in stormwater and sediments;
- Compare baseflow with storm event sampling;
- Characterize the general water quality of the streams.
