Summary

Abstract: The US EPA National Coastal Assessment (also known as Coastal 2000 or
C2000) is a five-year effort led by the EPA Office of Research and Development
to evaluate the assessment methods it has developed to advance the science of
ecosystem condition monitoring. This program will survey the condition of the
Nation's coastal resources (estuaries and offshore waters) by creating an

Quality If the measured concentration is below the detection limit, zero is reported
for the parameter and the detection limit for the parameter is reported. At a
shallow station (<3m), if a single mid-depth measurement was taken or a single
mid-depth sample was collected, measurements are reported identically in both
the surface and bottom layers. If Secchi disc hit the bottom,the reading may be
inaccurate (the true Secchi depth may have been deeper). If the reported
concentration is below or equal to the detection limit, the detection limit is
reported as a separate variable. If the concentration is undetectable and equal
to or less than the detection limit, the value is set to 0.
