Description The Washington State Department of Ecology initiated monitoring of marine waters in 1967 in order to assess water quality in Puget Sound, Grays Harbor, and Willapa Bay. Data are currently collected monthly for this ongoing, long-term monitoring effort by the Marine Waters Monitoring program. Monitoring of various water quality parameters during wateryears (WYs) 1996 and 1997 occurred at 29 and 25 stations, respectively, in Puget Sound each WY. For both WYs, five stations in Grays Harbor and six in Willapa Bay were also monitored. In this report, along with the WY 1996-97 data, five indicators of marine water column environmental condition are discussed.
