Summer Low Flow Trend Indicator results, statewide, updated through Oct 2013.

This information is updated annually with an additional year of flow data. These results are provided to the Puget Sound Partnership for their Vital Signs (http://www.psp.wa.gov/vitalsigns/summer_stream_flows.php) and to the Governor's Salmon Recovery Office for the "State of Salmon in WAtersheds" report (http://stateofsalmon.wa.gov/statewide/indicators/water-quantity).

The attached document "WR Indicator Outcomes Memo - 10-24-10.pdf" describes the methodology for developing these indicators.

During times of declared drought (WAC 173-166), the Department of Ecology may approve temporary water right applications and water right transfers for emergency drought relief. This data set lists approved drought permits from the years 2005 and 2001.

Routine freshwater monitoring data collected by the The WA State Department of Ecology's River and Stream Monitoring Program are summarized by a technique called the "Water Quality Index" (WQI). The WQI ranges from 1 (poor quality) to 100 (good quality). The WQI summary does not include non-standard elements like metals. For temperature, pH, oxygen, and fecal coliform bacteria, the WQI is based on criteria in Washington’s Water Quality Standards, WAC 173-201A.
For nutrient and sediment measures where standards are not specific, results are based on expected conditions in a given region. Multiple constituents are combined and results aggregated over time to produce a single score for each station and each year.
