Abstract:
The City of Reno and the City of Sparks cooperatively monitor data on Chalk Creek weekly. Samples are analyzed for constituents at the TMWRF lab.
Weekly samples are taken on Chalk Creek at the constructed weir between Int. 80 and West Fourth Street, just west of Reno. New weir installed Winter 2008 is located above the Highland Ditch spillway.
Values less than the reporting limits are non-zero estimated values to simplify mathematical manipulation of the data. Minimum Test Reporting Limits (mg/l) are: Total-P 0.01, NH3-N 0.02, NO3-N + NO2-N 0.005, TKN 0.1, TSS 2, TDS 2. Any values given below these limits are estimates only, based on statistics.
Temporal Coverage:
2006-05-02 - 2008-04-22
Analytical Method:
TDS, Total P, Total N, NO2-N, NO3-N, NH3-N, TKN
Metadata is attached.
