DRAFT Final Report ACWA-08-05
8 October 2008
Figure 4.
Fecal coliform bacteria concentrations at the three sites on the Nushagak River: a) near Koliganek, b)
near the mouth of the Mulchatna River, and c) near New Stuyahok. FC concentrations from three upstream
samples (affected bank, mid-channel and unaffected bank) were averaged and the mid-channel and unaffected
bank samples were averaged for the across channel sites.
Table 2.
Fecal coliform bacteria concentrations in fc/100ml by site as compared to upriver and cross channel
control sites. The affected bank site is directly downriver from a potential input of fecal coliform. Upstream sites
are upriver of the potential input; across channel sites are across the channel from potential inputs.
