Description A Class II Inspection was conducted in May 1991, at the Columbia Aluminum primary aluminum smelter in Goldendale. Samples were collected from the three permitted discharges. Nearby surface water sites were also sampled. NPDES permit compliance was good during the inspection. No toxicity was observed in the effluent using Microtox, rainbow trout, fathead minnow, Daphnia magna, and Ceriodaphnia dubia. Growth of the algae, Selenastrum capricornutum was inhibited at effluent concentrations above 25 percent.
