Bottom sediment quality of the Ottawa River / J.C. Merriman.: En36-516/153E-PDF

"In 1982, the Water Quality Branch, Ontario Region, completed a bottom sediment survey of the Ottawa River extending from the headwaters of Lake Timiskaming to the outflow of the river into Quebec at Carillon. Samples were analyzed for a wide range of metals and trace organic contaminants. This report summarizes those findings, discusses the spatial distribution of contaminants throughout the river, and compares results with previous findings"--Introd., p. 1.
