Abstract:

State Study 261 is a continuation of State study 225, "Turbidity Monitoring at Select

MDOT Construction Sites", which was successful in establishing baseline stream data

at several active construction sites. State Study 261 focused on the equipment and

methodology of monitoring turbidity upstream and downstream of representative

project outfall locations. This equipment evaluation included collecting receiving

stream turbidity measurements, evaluating equipment performance in the field, and

determining which solutions are more cost-effective, accurate, reliable, and defensible

when it comes to monitoring changes in turbidity between the upstream (background)

and the downstream locations at representative project discharge locations. Using

current MDEQ WQS, sampling points at four monitoring sites were situated upstream

and 750 feet downstream from the discharge point. Sampling these locations was

determined the most effective way to assess how MDOT construction practices are

performing in relationship the current MDEQ WQS.
