  1. Pennsylvania’s CBP Non-Tidal Water Quality Monitoring 2010 Update

  2. Bay Loading Parameters • Nitrogen, Total and Dissolved • Ammonia, Total and Dissolved • Nitrate+Nitrite, Total and Dissolved • Phosphorus, Total and Dissolved • Orthophosphorus, Total and Dissolved • Total Suspended Solids • Suspended Sediment (SS, Sand, Fine) • Total Dissolved Solids • Total Organic Carbon • Iron, Total • Sulfate • Chloride • Nickel, Total • Calcium, Total • Copper, Total • Aluminum, Total • Manganese • Lead, Total • Zinc, Total • Magnesium, Total • pH • Alkalinity • Specific Conductivity • Hardness pH, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and conductivity are taken in the field

  3. In November 2010, we added the following parameters to 13 of our primary stations that are located in the Marcellus Shale region of PA • Sodium, Total • Bromide • Selenium, Total • Strontium, Total • Boron, Total • Barium, Total • Osmotic Pressure
