| Description |
Zinc, copper, arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury, chromium, and nickel were analyzed in surface and deep water samples from three waterways in Commencement Bay and in the main bay during 1997-98. The data were analyzed for differences in metals concentrations between waterways and with depth, and compared to water quality criteria, historical data, and Puget Sound background. The fraction of dissolved metals was calculated and compared to EPA conversion factors used for setting metals limits in NPDES permits. |
