| Description | Data collected throughout the Soos Creek watershed show that multiple waterbodies do not meet Washington State water quality standards for temperature, dissolved oxygen, and bacteria. This Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) describes data collection, analysis, and computer modeling to confirm and address these water quality issues and characterize the sources of the main water quality problems. The study will collect information on the amount of flow, quality of the water, and biological growth in the water, stream bottom, and underlying sediments, as well as other attributes of the land, vegetation, and groundwater interaction. Ecology will collect information from April 2023 to April 2024, with more detailed information collected in the summer of 2023, when these water quality problems are more severe. Ecology will use the information to create a linked network of computer models that simulate water movement and quality through the land and in the streams. Management scenarios will be tested in the model to develop pollution limits. |
