Point source effluent from YDP discharges as surface flow from the Main Outlet Drain Extension II (MODE II) into the Colorado River. Quarterly samples of ambient water upstream of MODE II, effluent at the MODE II outfall, and from the river 500 m downstream of MODE II were analyzed for boron, copper, pH, and whole effluent toxicity (WET). The United States Geological Survey (USGS) modeled the mixing zone and plume geometry of effluent released from MODE II...
