| Description | Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) conducted a water quality monitoring study in Medicine Creek during the 2007/2008 wet season. Medicine Creek, a tributary to McAllister Creek, is located in Ecology’s Water Resource Inventory Area (WRIA) 11 in South Puget Sound, Thurston County. The creek flows into the Nisqually Reach of South Puget Sound, which has active commercial and recreational shellfish harvesting. This investigation was initiated in response to elevated concentrations of fecal coliform (FC) bacteria and nitrate+nitrite-nitrogen (nitrate+nitrite-N) found in Medicine Creek during the Nisqually River Basin Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) study (Sargeant, et al, 2005). | ||||
