| Description |
Vadose zone sampling equipment was installed and sampled at two locations on the Tree Top land application site near Selah, Washington. Fruit processing wash water is applied at the site to irrigate pasture grass grazed by cattle. The purpose of the study was to evaluate wastewater treatment in the unsaturated zone and to test two devices for sampling soil pore water. Hollow glass bricks and barrel lysimeters were used to obtain water quality samples and to estimate water movement. Tensiometers tracked the movement of irrigation-induced wetting fronts. Chemical oxygen demand (COD), total nitrogen (total N), chloride, dissolved iron, conductivity, and total dissolved solids were sampled five times between June 26, 1992, and December 7, 1992.
