<br />ww <br /> <br />site. The number (about six during initial sampling) <br />and location of these sites will be determined after a <br />thorough inspection of the candidate restoration sites. <br />The use of established sampling sites will allow for <br />detection of temporal trends in contaminants and water <br />and sediment quality. <br /> <br />2. Establish sampling schedules at each site. The <br />frequency of sampling will depend on the parameter <br />being monitored, installation of water control <br />structures, and budgetary and manpower constraints. <br /> <br />3. Develop 6tandardized procedures for sampling and <br />analyses. <br /> <br />4. Measure concentrations of selenium and other <br />inorganic contaminants in: <br />a. Water (grab, integrated) <br />b. Sediment (core, dredge) <br />c. Benthic invertebrates (core, dredge) , <br />d. Limnetic organisms (light traps, plankton <br />net) <br />e. Fish: <br /> <br />1. Stocked razorback suckers (nets, <br />electrofishing gear) <br />2. Species present at the sites prior <br />to their removal (nets, <br />electrofishing gear) <br /> <br />An initial comprehensive 6urvey of inorganic <br />contaminants in food organisms of fish may be conducted <br />to determine which of these inorganics may require <br />additional study. <br /> <br />5. Monitor the following parameters at each sampling site: <br /> <br />3 <br />
