Sediment Classification for Illinois Inland Lakes: 1996 Update

 
 Volume/Number:    
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  The IEPA has been collecting sediment quality data from lakes since 1977. A total of 1,876 sediment samples have been collected from 1977 through 1994 on 307 lakes comprising 781 stations. A large effort was made in 1979 to sample lakes throughout the state and compile the results. The results of 273 sediment samples collected from 63 Illinois lakes were compiled and reported. A proposed classification of Illinois lake sediments was based on the statistical properties of the 1979 data. Although additional data have been collected, the ranges had not been changed to reflect additional data. Therefore, the purpose of this report is to use more current data to update the sediment classification system.

Illinois Benthic Macroinvertebrate Collection Method Comparison and Stream Condition Index Revision [2004: rev 2007]

 
 Volume/Number:  2007 March 
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  A comparison of benthic macroinvertebrate collection methods was conducted for Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) involving the hand-pick method used until 2001 and the newly instituted 20-jab multi-habitat method. IEPA collected samples in the summer of 2001 using both methods at each site and data analysis showed little dissimilarity between the methods. Using the 20-jab method in lieu of the handpick method slightly increased (2.8%) the discrimination ability of the Stream Condition Index (SCI) proposed in 2000 (Tetra Tech 2000). The SCI developed as a preliminary index, based on Illinois historical data, included only richness metrics. This report was revised in March 2007, based on the November 2004 report of the same name.

Sample Collector's Handbook

 
 Volume/Number:    
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  It is critical that each sample collector understand sample collection requirements specified in each approved drinking water test method. Sampling location and sampling technique vary and failure to follow the proper procedures may result in re-sampling or violations. We are pleased to publish this Sample Collectors Handbook. This Handbook should assist public water supplies in implementing the requirements of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agencys drinking water regulations.

Chromium-6 Strategic Plan

 
 Volume/Number:  2010 December 
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  Illinois EPA believes that it is very important that we start with a sound understanding and assessment of what we know relative to total chromium in Illinois ground and surface water (including Lake Michigan) used as a source of public water supply. We also have a large data set relative to finished drinking water that can help identify any total chromium hot spots. Further, when U.S. EPA finishes their guidance and approved sample method for chromium-6, it will be used to develop a network to scientifically assess the prevalence of chromium-6 in source water (surface and groundwater), drinking water, and public water supply distribution systems. This information will help to prioritize U.S. EPAs technical assistance and guidance. Moreover, it will also assist U.S. EPA with the question of prevalence and need to establish a drinking water standard.
