| Study Name | Puget Sound Boatyard Receiving Water Study |
| EIM Data Entry Review Status | Reviewed |
| Study Type | General environmental study |
| Study Purpose | The Boatyard Receiving Water Study is being conducted to verify assumptions on metals translators and hardness used in the Boatyard General Permit (BGP) issued by Ecology in November 2005. The study is required by decision of the Pollution Control Hearing Board. The study will collect samples in three marine and two freshwater areas of Puget Sound in September 2008, January 2009, and May 2009. The samples will be analyzed for total recoverable and dissolved copper, lead, and zinc; total suspended solids, salinity (marine), and hardness (freshwater). |

| Study QA Project Plan Description | The Boatyard Receiving Water Study will collect samples in three marine and two freshwater areas of Puget Sound in September 2008, January 2009, and May 2009. The samples will be analyzed for total recoverable and dissolved copper, lead, and zinc; and hardness (freshwater). Because the permit to be reissued in August of 2008 will not use water effects ratios, these will not be determined in the study.

| Study QA Assessment Level | Level 5: Data Verified and Assessed for Usability in a Peer-Reviewed Study Report |
| Study Result Description | Total recoverable and dissolved zinc, copper, and lead, hardness, and ancillary water quality parameters were analyzed in five receiving waters for Puget Sound boatyards in September 2008 and January and May 2009. The objective was to obtain data to verify or modify the metals translator and hardness assumptions used to develop the benchmarks in the current Boatyard General Permit.
