Evaluation of Trace Metals in Ambient Water and Discharges to NY/NJ Harbor for Waste Allocation
Entry ID: NYDEP_tmdmetals

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: To determine the concentratons of metals in ambient waters of NY/NJ Harbor, its
major tributaries, and its major municiple sewage treatment plants (STP)
effluents

This study is to help determine wasteload allocation requirements in
the NY/NJ Harbor at tributary low-flow conditions. Included are hydrgraphic and
chemistry information for samples of ambient water from the harbor, water from
tributaries to the harbor, and effluent from municiple wastewater treatment
plants in the NY/NJ area.

Quality The reporting-limit goals (RLG) for metal analytes are one fifth the most
stringent WQC. Actual method detection limits (MDL) for metals analytes were
determined from instrumental detection limits (IDL), and the extract sample
size. Historical MDLs are reported for all other analytes. Metals analytical
accuracy is determined ... View entire text
