An assessment of the Banff sewage lagoon and its effects on the Bow River during February 1988 / Howard Block, Fred Zaal.: En37-602/1988E-PDF
"Water quality studies were undertaken in February 1988 to assess the performance of the Banff sewage lagoon and its effects on the Bow River. The study found that the sewage treatment plant generally delivered an effluent of good bacteriological quality; better than in previous years. At the time of the study, the effluent was found to have little impact on the bacteriological quality of the Bow River near the Park Boundary. The effluent was shown however to have a significant impact on the concentrations of nutrients, phosphorous in particular, in the Bow River. Significant diurnal variations in the quality of the Bow River near the Park Boundary were shown to be present and related to releases of water from the Cascade Hydroelectric Plant near Banff"--Abstract, page i.
