Description In 2003, the Department of Ecology developed a fecal coliform bacteria (FC) Total Maximum Daily Load water cleanup plan for tributaries of the Lower Snohomish River: Allen Creek, French Creek, the Pilchuck River, the Marshlands, Quilceda Creek, and Woods Creek. The cleanup plan documented actions needed to reduce FC levels in these tributaries by 2009. Since development of the TMDL, many water cleanup projects have been implemented to reduce FC levels in the area. In addition, NPDES stormwater permits have been developed and implemented.

The purpose of this study is to reassess current FC levels in the Lower Snohomish River tributaries and to extensively document water cleanup actions over time. This will provide watershed managers and stakeholders the information needed for adaptive management purposes.
