Sewage Treatment System Impact Monitoring Program | Vol 1 Data Report 2019-20 Page | i Executive summary Background Sydney Water operates 23 wastewater treatment systems and each system has an Environment Protection Licence (EPL) regulated by the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA). Each EPL specifies the minimum performance standards and monitoring that is required. The Sewage Treatment System Impact Monitoring Program (STSIMP) commenced in 2008 to satisfy condition M5.1a of our EPLs. The results are reported to the NSW EPA every year. The STSIMP aims to monitor the environment within Sydney Water’s area of operations to determine general trends in water quality over time, monitor Sydney Water’s performance and to determine where Sydney Water’s contribution to water quality may pose a risk to environmental ecosystems and human health. The format and content of 2019-20 Data Report predominantly follows four earlier reports (2015-16 to 2018-19). Sydney Water’s overall approach to monitoring (design and method) is consistent with the Australian and New Zealand Environment and Conservation Council (ANZECC 2000 and ANZG 2018) guidelines.

Sewage Treatment System Impact Monitoring Program | Interpretive Report 2016-17 Page | ii Executive summary Purpose A requirement of Sydney Water’s Environment Protection Licences (EPLs) is to undertake an ongoing Sewage Treatment System Impact Monitoring Program (STSIMP) to identify and quantify environmental impacts associated with Sydney Water’s wastewater services across our area of operations. The program aims to monitor the environment within Sydney Water’s area of operations to: • determine general trends in water quality over time • monitor Sydney Water’s performance • determine where Sydney Water’s contribution to water quality may pose a risk to environmental ecosystems and human health. The sampling program is designed to provide a longitudinal and spatial dataset that allows the identification of statistically significant changes in water quality or ecosystem health parameters that may be related to discharges from wastewater systems. The STSIMP generates two types of reports: an annual data report and an interpretive report.

Eisenhuth INTRODUCTION This report lists the streamflow and reservoir stations in The Great Basin for which records have been or are to be published in reports of the Geological Survey for periods through September 30, 1967. It supersedes Geological Survey Circular 510. Basic data on surface-water supply have been published in an annual series of water-supply papers consisting of several volumes, including one each for the States of Alaska and Hawaii. The area of the other 48 States is divided into 14 parts whose boundaries coincide with certain natural drainage lines. Prior to 1951, the records for the 48 States were published in 14 volumes, one for each of the parts. From 1951 to 1960, the records for the 48 States were published annually in 18 volumes, there being 2 volumes each for Parts 1, 2, 3, and 6. The boundaries of the various pans are shown on the map in figure 1. Beginning in 1961, ·the annual series ofwater-supplypapers on surface-water supply was changed to a 5-year series.
