Study QA Project Plan DescriptionQuality Assurance Project Plan: Washington State Toxics Monitoring Program, Exploratory Monitoring of Toxic Contaminants in Edible Fish Tissue and Freshwater Environments of Washington State (ECY pub # 02-03-65). Also see Quality Assurance Project Plan: PCB and Dioxin Levels in Resident Fish from Washington Background Lakes and Rivers (ECY pub # 08-03-102).
Study QA Assessment LevelLevel 5: Data Verified and Assessed for Usability in a Peer-Reviewed Study Report
Study Result DescriptionThe following EIM studies are related, search EIM for the following EIM User Study Id's if interested: WSTMP08, HgFish08, CCOF0003, and CFUR0003. The studies may share locations, fish samples, or fish measurement data. Sample #s 0812012-50 through 0812012-63 belong to a separate study "An Assessment of PCB and Dioxin Background in Washington Freshwater Fish, with Recommendations for Prioritizing 303(d) Listings", by Art Johnson, publication #10-03-007. Background Study data is stored with WSTMP08 EIM data to reduce data entry efforts. The following samples were "shared" between WSTMP08 and Background Study: 0812011-01 through 0812011-09; also -14, -15, -17, -18, -20, -21, -22, -23, -32, and -33. Okanogan/Similkameen fish (sample #s 0812011-34 through 0812011-38, and -42) were shared between WSTMP08 and CCOF0003 Studies. Each project analyzed samples for specific parameters. All Okanogan/Similkameen fish tissue data is stored in EIM User Study CCOF0003.
