Description:

The Clean Water Act of 1972 calls for preserving and maintaining the chemical, physical and biological integrity of our nation’s waters. Numerous water quality monitoring programs of varying scopes run by government agencies, universities and citizen volunteer groups operate at local, regional and national scales. Water quality data thus generated are used to characterize waters, describe status and temporal trends, identify emerging issues, and prioritize areas where resources need to be directed in restoring and rehabilitating water bodies.
