Description
Summary:This report documents existing information on water quality and sediment in the Susitna River basin with emphasis on the Susitna-Watana Hydroelectric Project area and downstream reaches. The purpose of this data gap analysis is to evaluate available information for its relevance and applicability to the proposed Project for the Alaska Energy Authority, and help with the National Environmental Policy Act scoping and study planning activities conducted as part of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission licensing process. This document focuses on potential data gaps identified for the following resources that may be affected by the proposed Project: 1) Water quality: conventional and metals parameters; anadromous and resident fisheries; analysis of toxics; 2) Sediment transport: hydrology; sediment supply, transport, and deposition/sedimentation; stage-discharge relations in the aquatic habitat reaches; formation and adjustment of dynamic aquatic habitats.
