supported in part by funds provided by the United
States Department of the Interior, Office of Water
Research and Technology, as authorized under the
Water Research and Development Act of 1978. The

of Reclamation.
The research projects were coordinated through the
Water Research Centers and Institutes of the states of
Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. Preparation
of this report was carried out through the State of
Washington Water Research Center.
