Abstract

A major part of the study is a weekly sampling program conducted on the reach of the river indicated above. This weekly program includes taking grab samples at five points along the river and analyzing these samples for selected chemical, physical, and biological constituents. Special studies are conducted periodically to provide additional data concerning the variability of water quality. The data collected are reported monthly and summarized in this annual report. Here, errors occurring in computing or reporting laboratory results in the monthly reports are corrected. Other hydrologic data have been obtained from the US Geological Survey and the US Weather Bureau as daily stage and discharge measurements for the River at Boone and at Saylorville and precipitation measurements in the reservoir area at Boone and Des Moines.
