Description The Marine Water Column Monitoring Program was initiated in 1967 to monitor ambient water quality in Puget Sound, Grays Harbor, and Willapa Bay. Data are currently collected monthly as part of an ongoing, long-term monitoring component to the program. During Wateryear 1993 (WY 1993 = October 1992 through September 1993), the Washington State Department of Ecology monitored water quality monthly at 23 stations in Puget Sound, five stations in Grays Harbor, and five stations in Willapa Bay. Of the 48 scheduled surveys for long-term monitoring, 43 were completed. Incomplete surveys resulted from inclement weather conditions (i.e., low visibility and rough sea surface) that prevented sampling.
