The purpose of this report is to inventory existing park water quality data; establish baseline water quality at the park; identify potential water quality problems; and establish a park water quality database. This report is intended to enable park resource managers to compare and contrast water quality data collected as part of ongoing inventory and monitoring programs with historical water quality trends. Additionally, this report is intended to foster better designed park-based water quality inventory and monitoring programs in the future. The water quality databases which accompany this report will also lay the groundwork for establishing a NPS water quality database that will allow Regions and Washington Offices to generate regional and national assessments of park water quality.
