Purpose
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with U.S. Fish and Wildlife service, collected channel-sediment samples at depth for subsequent analyses that would allow attainment of the following goals: (1) determination of the relation between concentration and depth for lead, zinc and cadmium in channel sediments and flood plain sediments, and (2) determination of the volume of stream-channel sediment from the surface to the maximum depth with concentrations of these metals that exceeded sediment-quality guidelines.
