STORM WATER MONITORING Summary

CRWD established a storm water monitoring program in 2004.  Data collected from this program are used to assess achievement of water quality standards, evaluate BMP programs, identify water quality problem areas, calibrate computer models, and perform trend analysis.  Currently, CRWD operates 12 full water quality stations.  Data collected from each of these stations includes water level and velocity, nutrients, metals, chlorides, E. coli, and solids concentrations, and carbonaceous biological oxygen demand (CBOD).  In addition, CRWD collects precipitation and storm water pond level data.
