During water year 2017 (October 1, 2016, through September 30, 2017), data presented in this report were collected at 72 stations: 70 Ambient Water-Quality Monitoring Network stations and 2 U.S. Geological Survey National Stream Quality Assessment Network stations. Among the 72 stations in this report, 4 stations have data presented from additional sampling performed in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Summaries of the concentrations of dissolved oxygen, specific conductance, water temperature, suspended solids, suspended sediment, Escherichia coli bacteria, fecal coliform bacteria, dissolved nitrate plus nitrite as nitrogen, total phosphorus, dissolved and total recoverable lead and zinc, and selected pesticide compounds are presented. Most of the stations have been classified based on the physiographic province or primary land use in the watershed represented by the station. Some stations have been classified based on the unique hydrology of the waterbodies they monitor. A summary of hydrologic conditions in the State including peak streamflows, monthly mean streamflows, and 7-day low flows also are presented. Introduction The Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) is responsible for the implementation of the Federal Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. §1251 et seq.) in Missouri. Section 305(b) of the Clean Water Act requires that each State develop a water-quality monitoring program and periodically report the status of its water quality (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1997). Water-quality status is described in terms of the suitability of the water for various uses, such as drinking, fishing, swimming, and supporting aquatic life; these uses formally were defined as “designated uses” in State and Federal regulations. Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act requires States to identify impaired waters and determine the total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) of pollutants that can be present in these waters and still meet applicable water-quality standards for their designated uses (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2018). A TMDL addresses a single pollutant for each waterbody. Missouri has an area of about 69,000 square miles and an estimated population of 6.09 million people (U.S. Census Bureau, 2016). Within Missouri, 115,772 miles (mi) of classified streams support a variety of uses including wildlife, recreation, agriculture, industry, transportation, and public utilities, but only 24,761 mi (or about 21 percent) were monitored, evaluated, and assessed in the State’s most recent waterquality report (Missouri Department of Natural Resources, 2016a). Of these assessed stream miles, an estimated 5,307 mi fully support the designated uses, and an estimated 5,549 mi are impaired by","PeriodicalId":52356,"journal":{"name":"U.S. Geological Survey Data Series","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69283977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Galanter","doi":"10.3133/DS1116","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3133/DS1116","url":null,"abstract":"The Albuquerque Basin, located in central New Mexico, is about 100 miles long and 25–40 miles wide. The basin is hydrologically defined as the extent of consolidated and unconsolidated deposits of Tertiary and Quaternary age that encompasses the structural Rio Grande Rift between San Acacia to the south and Cochiti Lake to the north. A 20-percent population increase in the basin from 1990 to 2000 and a 22-percent population increase from 2000 to 2010 resulted in an increased demand for water in areas within the basin. Drinking-water supplies throughout the basin were obtained solely from groundwater resources until December 2008, when the Albuquerque Bernalillo County Water Utility Authority (ABCWUA) began treatment and distribution of surface water from the Rio Grande through the San JuanChama Drinking Water Project. An initial network of wells was established by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the City of Albuquerque from April 1982 through September 1983 to monitor changes in groundwater levels throughout the Albuquerque Basin. In 1983, this network consisted of 6 wells with analog-to-digital recorders and 27 wells where water levels were measured monthly. As of 2018, the network consisted of 120 wells and piezometers. (A piezometer is a specialized well open to a specific depth in the aquifer, often of small diameter and nested with other piezometers open to different depths.) The USGS, in cooperation with the ABCWUA, the New Mexico Office of the State Engineer, and Bernalillo County, measures water levels from the 120 wells and piezometers in the network; this report, prepared in cooperation with the ABCWUA, presents water-level data collected by USGS personnel at those 120 sites through water year 2018 (October 1, 2017, through September 30, 2018). Water levels that were collected from wells in previous water years were published in previous USGS reports. Introduction The Albuquerque Basin, located in central New Mexico, is about 100 miles long and 25–40 miles wide (fig. 1). The basin is defined as the extent of consolidated and unconsolidated deposits of Tertiary and Quaternary age that encompasses the structural Rio Grande Rift within the basin (Thorn and others, 1993). The basin is approximately bisected by the southward-flowing Rio Grande, the only perennial stream extending through the length of it. The study area, which includes the Albuquerque Basin and adjacent areas, extends from just upstream of Cochiti Lake south to San Acacia and from near Tijeras Canyon west to near the intersection of Interstate 40 and the BernalilloCibola County line. In 2000, the population of the Albuquerque Basin was about 690,000 (Bartolino and Cole, 2002). According to 2010 U.S. Census Bureau data, the 2010 population was about 840,000 (U.S. Census Bureau, 2019; calculated as the sum of population for census tract centers within the basin). The basin population increased about 20 percent from 1990 to 2000 (Thorn and others, 1993; Ba","PeriodicalId":52356,"journal":{"name":"U.S. Geological Survey Data Series","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69284118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
