Description In this study, stormwater discharge quality of western Washington log yards are surveyed. Sampling was conducted at six log yards to evaluate typical concentrations of pollutants. Analyses of a suite of general chemistry, metals, and organics parameters were conducted, and bioassay tests were performed.

Results are presented, and the impact on discharge quality of site characteristics is evaluated. Site characteristics include the presence or absence of retention ponds and whether log sorting yards are paved or unpaved. Results of the study are used to evaluate current requirements for self-monitoring of log yards.
