Description Two reaches of the upper Yakima River are currently on the 303(d) 1998 list for Washington State as being water quality limited for fish tissue: the Yakima Canyon for dieldrin and p,p’-DDE, and the Cle Elum area for p,p’-DDE. The listing for dieldrin was based on a single excursion in an anadromous species of fish collected in 1985. The purpose of this study was to confirm if the listing is still appropriate.
