The Laboratory monitors surface waters from regional and Pajarito Plateau stations to evaluate the environmental effects of its operations. Periodic natural surface runoff occurs in two modes: (1) spring snowmelt runoff that occurs over days to weeks at a low discharge rate and sediment load and (2) summer runoff from thunderstorms that occurs over hours at a high discharge rate and sediment load. The surface waters within the Laboratory are not a source of municipal, industrial, or irrigation water, although wildlife does use the waters. We also provide answers to frequently asked questions about surface water sampling. |
