Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6809003
The aquatic monitoring program consists of onsite monitoring of surface runoff, monitoring of point source discharges identified in the NPDES permit, and limited instream biological monitoring. The program is tied to a feedback mechanism for implementing corrective action before significant adverse impacts occur in the Holston River. This report evaluates the aquatic monitoring program for the second year (October 19, 1978 through October 18, 1979) of construction as required by the NPDES permit, Part III, Section I. Included in this report are data from peripheral runoff monitoring, selected heavy rainfall sampling, ground water monitoring, instream aquatic macroinvertebrate monitoring, and aquatic macrophyte monitoring.
