| Data collection info | The monitoring program included parameters influenced by forest harvesting practices and road building such as turbidity, total suspended solids (TSS), water temperature, and conductivity (Cavanagh et al. 1998, MacDonald et al. 1991, Jordan and Fanjoy 1999). Stratified collection of bacteriological samples (total and fecal coliforms) at low flow conditions was also carried out to further assess drinking water quality. |
