year for full-suite water quality. The first sample of the year is <br /> collected during the spring runoff (March or April), the second sample <br /> is collected after th e spring runoff (May or June), and the third sample <br /> is collected during base flow conditions (September). Full-suite lab <br />samples collected at all these sites were analyzed using the surface <br />water long list, Table 8. The two stream sites on Fish Creek (Sites <br />SSFii and 13), and the two on Fish Creek tributaries (Sites SSC10 and <br />SSBi2), are monitored monthly from May through July for field parameters <br />and full-suite lab samples. When no flow is observed at both the Cow <br />Camp and Bond Creek sites (Sites 10 and 12), the two Fish Creek sites <br />(Sites 11 and 13) are not monitored. <br />At the Seneca I1 Mine, there are ten spoil springs are monitored for <br />field parameters and full-suite lab samples in the spring and fall <br />seasons. In addition, Spoils Spring 1 was sampled triannually for a <br />£ull-suite lab samples concurrently with NPDES 004. <br />Surface water quality data are presented in Appendix D. Data for each <br />site begins with a flow hydrograph of all historic data (plus an annual <br />hydrograph for NPDES sites), followed by a listing of individual water <br />quality and quantity data for the current water year, remarks, a TDS <br />regression plot using the LOwESS method (see Ground water Quality <br />section), and then a listing of historic percent milliequivalent values <br />for major ions and TDS values. Crest stage gage rating curves are <br />presented in Appendix E. Lab samples are handled identically to <br />procedures discussed previously in the Ground Water Quality section. <br />For the sake of brevity, the prefix that precedes all surface water site <br />names will often be dropped throughout the following text. As an <br />example, Site SSLGS will be referred to as Site 5. <br />Fish Creek Drainage. Six monitoring sites exist within the Fish Creek <br />drainage: NPDES 004 and Site 10 are located on Cow Camp Creek. NPDES <br />008 and Site 12 are located on Bond Creek. Sites 11 and 13 exist on <br />Fish Creek. <br />11 <br />
